If you're slightly more agile than Homer Simpson, you can re-use them (at least the vast majority of types). It's also a good chance to clean the inside surface of the glass. |

The ones I have, yes, the glass is clipped in place with a little frame. Just have to make sure the inside stays clean for remounting. It was no big deal. I'm not sure if the Minolta 5400 would take the slides mounted as is. Worth a try. (I sold my 5400 a couple years ago). -- -- r.p.e.35mm user resource: http://www.aliasimages.com/rpe35mmur.htm -- r.p.d.slr-systems: http://www.aliasimages.com/rpdslrsysur.htm -- [SI] gallery & rulz: http://www.pbase.com/shootin -- e-meil: Remove FreeLunch. -- usenet posts from gmail.com and googlemail.com are filtered out. |

Yep, assuming they are glass slide mounts (rather than true glass plates) he is talking about - *carefully take it out*! I have quite a few of these, they are removable and re-usable, but I try to avoid them: - the glass gets easily contaminated, and may even get stuck to the film if they are not stored well, so be careful - there is the newton ring problem - the textured glass often used in them to *avoid* newton rings, may interfere with your scan - I can see it on my 2700 ppi scanner. Also, I have broken one, and that wasn't a nice experience for me or the film within. |

But I use exclusively the Gepe mounts. - there is the newton ring problem Gepe glass mounts don't have this problem: AN glass, and the proper one, not just the fogged glass. - the textured glass often used in them to *avoid* newton rings, may interfere with your scan - I can see it on my 2700 ppi scanner. If you scan at higher than 2700ppi, you'll find it only affects the focusing mechanism. But I agree: I prefer to scan just the film. With an FH-3 in a 5000 or V, it's child's play. Also, I have broken one, and that wasn't a nice experience for me or the film within. Gepe ones are dirt easy to re-open, have most of my older slides in them. |
