Good luckwith it! I'm delighted with mine for MF. (not bad for 35mm either, but slow). Good price too. It's amazing at the cheap prices for the quality of imaging gear now. I cant believe the quality of my 1280 printer for only a little over $300 bucks. Too bad the paper and inks arent free.....
BTW, heres a tip to get the most out of your 6X7 negs and slides. I had some freshly developed TMAX the other day which was buckling in the holder and wouldnt scan sharp. I placed the neg dead center in the holder which leaves about a cm on both sides. I then place two mounted 35mm slide holders on each side on top of of the neg so that when i closed the top it would push down the film where needed. Worked like a charm. BUT, usually i dont have to do this if the film lays reasonably flat.
