A big advantage to the SS120 -- depth of focus!!  If it doesn't have to be
perfectly flat, don't fix it if it ain't broke:)

How do you find the film flatness in the MF holder?  It does not look flat
to me although the images seem to be in focus.  I seem to try a few times to
get a strip to lay flat.  Any tips?

It is also impossible to scan every frame on a four frame strip.

I like the 120 although the film flatness of the MF is an issue.
