Hi Bob,

The scanner SHOULD be designed so the sensor etc. is motionless (as in
paused) when the exposure is taken.  This shouldn't be an issue...if the
scanner is designed right.  Good thought though!

It's not the sensor that moves, obviously, but the film.  Exposure can vary
drastically, but it's in the millisecond range, like 6-60 if I remember
right.

Austin
