FH-869M Holder for Medium-Format Slides

The FH-869M is used with medium-format (120/220, 2¼ or Brownie) slides with mounts 1.0–3.2 mm thick. It is equipped with two apertures: a smaller aperture for 6 × 4.5 or 6 × 6 slides and a larger aperture for 6 × 7, 6 × 8, and 6 × 9 slides.

Do Not Mix Positive and Negative Film

Do not place mounted negatives in the holder with positive slides.

Inserting Slides

Insert the slides between the guides. The slides should be oriented to match the ap- ertures in the holder and the reﬂective ﬁlm base should be up ( 26). Stop when the slide contacts the base of the clips.

Inserting Slides

Insert slides between the guides. Forcing the slides onto the guides could damage the slides or clips and prevent the scanner from focusing correctly. To minimize resistance, try inserting slides at a slight angle.

Do Not Use Force

Do not use force when removing slides. Fail- ure to observe this precaution could damage the clips. Do not lift the slides up until fully removed from the clips.

Do Not Store Slides in the Holder

Leaving slides in the holder for extended periods could damage the clips holding the slides in place.
