filmscanners: Jaggies in passing

[Julian Robinson <julian1@dynamite.com.au>]

I agree entirely, and of course Maxwell's service people said they had 
never heard of the problem when I phoned them.  So I suspect "interesting" 
will be the main outcome of this exercise!

I think my jaggies has got significantly worse with time, which is not 
surprising if it is a resonance vibration thing, because the vibration 
amplitude would increase as the feed mechanism wears into more slack, or 
holding springs soften etc.  This means that it is *possible* to fix it 
though if you try hard enough.
