Collapsed Cottage, North Devon. Yashica Minister D and Agfa 200 (poundland) film.

Hey Peter, That's a great find! I just looked and they have a Medium format holder for the 3170, for $5, so if all else fails I can order that instead - provided they'll ship it at a sensible price. :-)

Thanks Steven, perhaps I am expecting too much! After how well the 35mm holders worked with the scanner, was a bit frustrated when I tried the MF one.

No, afraid not!! Only the other 3 tabs. (...just tried playing around with modes and settings but couldn't make that tab appear either.)

Hi Brian, Thank you for the suggestion, however there doesn't seem to be an option in Epson Scan for that when using the 3170 scanner (even if it is there is for other models).

Hey, Thank you everyone. :) So just to update I took some screen shots of the what is going on. First up, the Preview scan from a single strip of 35mm colour negs, note individual thumbnails. The second image is Preview scan from the Medium Format holder, note strange cropping. Last is...

Hi Everyone, Thank you for all your replies, ...just to add I am using the Epson Scan software. (I have looked for a 'manual scan area' option in Configuration but there isn't one and the Target Size option is ignored) Hopefully someone might have a definitive answer soon. :)

Hi there, I have a second hand Epson 3170 scanner, and recently acquired some film holders for it. The 35mm film and slide holders work great, however disappointingly the Brownie (Medium Format) Holder isn't recognised by the scanner. Could some with experience of this scanner or similar...

Hi, Some very good shots here, especially like #1 and #3. Also loved the spectator in #2, particularly amusing! :-) Very nice work, thanks for sharing. :-)

Good effort Ciaran, looks like a solid start at rugby photography to me. :-) Not much to fault here, as already stated all exposures look pretty solid, shutter speed could possibly be increased slightly to stop some faces being slightly blurred, other than that it's a case of following the...

Hi Carol, Thank you for the added feedback. Am not sure about cropping anymore off the first one, as I think it might just be an exercise in Turd Polishing at this point! Yes, will try and capture a range of images in future. I did have a second body with a 17-55mm lens on it but didn't...

PS. Actually just had a look at your Flickr set for this event and have to say you have some better images on there from this event than the one's you've posted here, including a nicely panned image and a few crash images. Also liked the image of the competitors standing on a snow mound...

Hi Fuglstad, Thank you for introducing me to a new event, as I had never heard of Kicksled before. :-) Of your set I like #1 for showing the course the competitors will be coming down, #3 as the sled riders are nicely captured and you can get a feel for what is going on, #5 is quite good but...

Hi Nigel and Carol, Thank you for your feedback, much appreciated. I went back and had a look at 4 or 5 images and tried cropping them as advised but was pretty unhappy with the results with all but 2 of them. I think a combination of the shots I have (crowded scenes) and the extra depth...
