Preparing the Film

Setting Films in the Holder (If Needed)

Check which type of holder you should use. See page 216.

Slide Holder/Glass Mount Film Holder

Note

The slide holder is covered with glass. Set the mount films in the slide holder.

The glass mount film holder is not covered with the glass. Set the glass mount films (covered by glass) in the glass mount film holder.

Positive films are usually set in a slide mount or glass mount. If you use positive film not set in a mount, set it in the film strip holder. See below.

1Open the cover of the slide holder or glass mount film holder, and set the slides in the holder one by one.

Note

Set the front side of the film face down when setting in the slide holder or glass mount film holder.

When setting in the slide holder, make sure that all slides are aligned with the glass of the slide holder cover.
