Good luck with that. I have a film scanner, but want to scan whole sheets. 

As well as a scanner I have a cunning plan. 

I have just bought on ebay a BOOWU-M (later BOWUM), which is a very old skool 
Leitz copy stand on legs, set up for use with a 50mm lens, with which you can 
copy documents of A4, A5 or A6 format. Pentax used to sell something similar.

I can attach to this my Leica typ 262 with the 50mm Summicron, plonk it on a 
large enough light table above the page of negs/slides, mask off any excess 
light, and bad-a-bing - with the self-timer as the typ 262 can’t be tethered to 
LR.

I also have the M adapter for my micro-4/3rds camera, so I could also try that, 
but tethered to LR.

Watch this space.
