    Help needed to identify film holders for scanner

    Dear all,

    I have a bunch of brand new and unused scanning film holders which I would like to sell but I have no idea for what scanner they are.
    Can someone please help to identify them?`

    Overall I have 2 of each type
    • 35mm film holder
    • 35mm framed slide holder
    • 6x9 film holder
    • 4x5 film holder



    Any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks
    Matthias

    They are not for Epson V700 or V750.

    A posibility could be Agfa or Microtech.

    Surely not for the Epson Scanners. Have a V800 here on my desk. They are almost 1 cm thick so they are very likely supposed to be slided in somewhere in a slot. Therefore yes, Agfa or Microtech could be true. Any user of these scanners here for further help?

    The calibration gap size and placement make me think an agfa or microtek scanner (they shared many components for some models and some were just re-rebrands of the other) but it appears those are for a larger than normal scanner bed. i900 and similar size only scanned four 120 pieces of film for instance.

    Looks like for an Agfa T2500, but that's only an informed guess. I used to own one, but that was many years ago. I might even have the box of holders somewhere.

    They match neither the HP G4050 masks nor the Epson 4870 masks I have here.

    Yes, they appear to be for an Agfa T2500. See this

    Yes, it looks identical. Only difference is the two round shaped notches on the border. Don't know if they are just for easy removing or whether there is another reason for it.
    Would be great if a user of the T2500 could send me exact outside dimensions of the holders for comparison.

    many thanks!
