Because the main headache with focussing has been bowed slides which form
a kind of dome shape? A sensible average point would be halfway along a
diagonal between the center and one corner.
Using the motorised feeder with curled strips of film could be problematic
depending on which end of the frame is curled. :( In this situation I'd
think the best option would be to use the center focus point since about
3/4 of the frame should be flat. The only real solution for curled film
is the flim strip holder. If only the feeder held the film flat!
