There are always trade-offs when you make a unit meant to do several

a dedicated film scanner provided that you design it mainly with
film in mind, but tweak it a bit so that it will accept other media,
too, rather than the other way around.
Sounds like a description of the HP PhotoSmart scanner (S10 and S20).
You mean, it's a film scanner tweaked for other formats? Is it any
good? Does it come with the same software at their office flatbeds. (I
hope not...) I think an S20 is for sale at "the usual place"...
Film scanner that can also scan small prints (hence, other media.)
I don't know if they still sell them. I've had my S20 for a few years,
before which I had its predecessor. Between the two, I've owned a
PhotoSmart for probably eight years or so.
