Re: Questions about Nikon SA-30 roll film adapter

After using an older Nikon scanner LS-2000, I start to doubt this
guess. The LS-2000 crashed when I inserted a film strip longer than 6
frames into it and the film adapter jamed. It looks that the scanner
try to count the total number first and then get film jamed in its
adapter. The manual film adapter of LS-2000 is different from SA-21
that there is no opening at its rear side, so longer film cannot pass
through the adapter and will jam there when the adapter try to eat up
all frames. Don't know whether this will happen when inserting film
strip longer than 6 frames into SA-21 adapter of LS-5000.
