Hi Bruce, I'd be interested to find out as well what everyone's experience is with this. Haven't done any of this myself, and I was wondering if it's possible to simply sandwich the negative between thin glass plates. I noticed that the Epson 2450 accommodates large negatives, but don't know if it would accommodate a "sandwich" such as I describe. I won't be buying a 2450 any time soon, since I'm still using my limited budget to acquire 6x7 accessories. I thought I'd try scanning 6x7 negatives by laying them directly on the bed of my cheap CanoScan D660U, then back-illuminate them either by setting a lightbox on top, or by reflecting the scanner's built-in front-illuminating light source with some sort of home-built adapter (kind of like the transparency adapters some of the flatbed scanners currently use).
