You can try using a sheet of glass over the neg to lock it flat. Problem with my scanner is that the heat of the trannie bulb causes miniscule movement of trannie resulting in unsharpness. Big difference with extra glass. If it works for you on a trial basis, and you have newton ring problmes, just get a anti-newton ring glass. tom robinson
