I believe most of what I've heard people say about their 8000/9000 MF holders. BUT... I've had very little trouble with mine. Considering what you get for your buck, a used 8000 is a great deal.

After having a few scans done on an Imacon, I think I'll continue to scan my portfolio of negs. I seem to need no more than 3500-4000 DPI for my 6x7s. My question is what scanner to buy - Imacons are not an option (Im a graduate student). I've looked at the Nikon 9000 - but have heard only bad things about its neg holders. The Minolta Dimage Multi Pro looks great, but is hard to find. I would love to know which flatbeds with tras units you like and also am interested in hearing about the new(er) Microtek 120tf.
