Forgive the ignorance of this question, but do the film holders allow for 120 film scanning ? what kind of quality can you get from the scans ?

Cheers
rich.

Rich,

I have the 8000 and the holders in the sellers post are the ones that would have come with the scanner when new. They are for 35mm film strips, 35mm mounted slides, and 120 roll film. The quality you can get is stunning but be aware that Nikon stopped supporting their Nikon Scan some years ago. Most people either use Silverprint (very expensive), Vuescan (good price) or the like. Hope this helps.

Barry
