Dual roller drive mechanism

Belt driven dual rollers grab the film securely on both sides in a push-pull configuration

Thanks to this, you can scan strips as short as 4 standard 35 mm frames long.

Your images always stay safe, because the soft rubber rollers only ever contact the edges of the film.

It's a very well made and easy to use. I would recommend this to anyone who would like to DSLR scan at home but frustrated with the current available options.

Had some questions before buying and the communication with the seller was perfect! The shipping was fast and the quality of the carrier is really good! I don’t have any others to compare this one to but I would still recommend this one.

This is the film holder you are looking for. Substantial build quality, film rollers are smooth and firm. I completely underestimated how much time you can save by simply rolling your film through. Great Customer Service as well.

I loved the 35mm version and had a really great customer experience so I also decided to get the 120mm version of the carrier and later on also got the film catch trays! All the parts were easy to print and came out flawless!

These carriers are heavy, dense, and incredibly stiff. A deep s-curve helps keep the film very flat. At f/11 a whole 6x6cm frame was in focus. This combined with a throughtful design makes this a 10/10 product.
