126 film holder/adapter made for Epson Perfection V700/750/800/850 Film Scanners

Description

Visit My eBay Store: Negative Solutions
This is a 126 film format negative holder for use with select Canon and Epson film scanners
(US Patent Pending).
Completely redesigned model!  This was CAD designed and manufactured for use with the obsolete 126 film format introduced by Kodak in 1963.  Used commonly in Kodak "Instamatic" cameras, production of 126 film ended in 2008.  126 film was actually 35 mm in width so technically a Canon 35 mm OEM holder will work with them.  The issue is that the image 126 cameras recorded was square and was also offset on the negative by 5 mm in height.  Thus trying to scan a 126 negative in a 35 mm holder will result in cropping of the original image.
Important: Our film adapters for flatbed scanners are not designed to be used with uncut filmstrips.  You may need to cut your film to adapter length for proper use.
Specifications for the 126 negative holder:
Overall: 199 mm x 55 mm
Scanning window:  179 x 29.45 mm
Material:  Solid Plastic
Important
:
This negative holder is designed to sit inside the stock 120 film holder (directly on the glass) that shipped with your Canon or Epson scanner.  Utilizing your 120 OEM holder may not be strictly necessary with some scanners, but utilizing your stock holder aids in proper positioning and can help avoid calibration and focus issues.
Epson 800/850 users:
Due to the built in anti-newton glass in your OEM holders, you will
not
be able to use your stock 120 holder for alignment, as described below.  For best usage, you will need your film area guide to aid in proper alignment for scanning.
SPECIAL NOTE FOR INTERNATIONAL BUYERS BUYING MULTIPLE ITEMS
:  Ebay has recently changed rules for international buyers.  Depending on where you live, you may not be able to combine shipping or ask me to send an invoice before paying.  The system may require to pay immediately as well as to pay for separate shipping on each item.  If this happens to you, I have a policy of always reimbursing excess shipping charges on multiple items to international buyers.  Once I have all your items packaged up together and weighed, I will refund any excess shipping costs to you.
Important additional notes:
- If you are buying my holders for resale, please be aware that my products are more about "function" over "form."  This is why they are so inexpensive compared to other commercially produced options.  Each holder is custom made and may contain spot sanding and other finishing marks.  I do my best to clean my products up cosmetically, but due to sales volume I simply can't spend a lot of time on it.  My main concern is that it works like it is supposed to.  As a result, if you are reselling please be aware that you may need to do some more finishing work suitable for a retail environment.
- Aftermarket holders for odd film sizes will usually require the ability to manually scan film strips with "thumbnail" modes turned off.  Depending on your model and software, masking of individual frames for scanning may be necessary for the best results.  Please ensure you know how to set your scanner/software for full manual control.  Simply pushing a green button on the front of your scanner (common with Epson models) to scan a film strip will not work with most aftermarket film holders.
- Please pay particular attention to the "handling" days before shipping as noted above.  I do not typically maintain an inventory of my film holders as most are custom made upon order placement.  As such, I ask for 5 business days handling before shipping.  My average is likely around 2 days, but there are occasions where orders are very high and I may need all 5 business days before I am able to ship your holder.  Please keep this in mind.
