Hi!

I got the impression that Multi Format Set is just a glassless carrier with 
mask you can cut yourself. Vuescan, which is avalable for 40 USD (I think)
does 2820 scan across an MF film, but covers just a 24 mm area. Vuescan can 
bed downloaded from www.hamrick.com/vsm.html for test. 

Did you consider using a flatbed scanner for MF?

I sort of consider buying the Scan Multi Pro, if I can afford it. On the 
other hand I do A3 prints from my 6x7 slides, and I don't think they lack in 
sharpness.

Regards

Erik Kaffehr
