Scanning Film - Canon CanoScan 5000F Quick Start Manual

Scanning Film (for CanoScan 5000F)
You can scan 35 mm film (a film strip or slides) with this scanner.
Positioning the Film
Use the following procedures to insert the film into the film guide.
1
Remove the protective sheet from the document cover.
Slide the protective sheet up to remove it.
When you finish scanning, replace the protective sheet by aligning it with the grooves in the document
cover and sliding it downward into place.
• Store the protective sheet in a safe place so that it will not get bent or broken.
• Always replace the protective sheet when you are not scanning film to prevent the
light source section from getting scratched.
2
Insert the film into the film guide.
Film Strip
Open the film holder on the film guide for a film strip, insert
the strip face down and close the film holder.
• Place a black piece of paper over any gap to
shield the light if you are inserting a film
strip with 5 or fewer frames, or if the edge
of a scanned image appears whitened.
Slides
Place a slide or slides face down in the film guide for slides as
shown in the diagram to the right.
