I disagree, and I'm sure Austin will chime in here too <g>.
All film scanners I've worked with move the film -- except
for flatbeds with TPUs. The lamp and CCD stay put.
This applies to:
* Microtek 35t+
* Polaroid SprintScan Plus
* Minolta Scan Speed
* Nikon 8000 ED
* LeafScan 45
All of the above scanners move the media. CCD
and lamp are stationary.
In fact, except for flatbeds posing as film
scanners, I can't think of any film scanners
that *don't* work that way.
