Yes, I scan my Widelux negs all the time using a Nikon LS30. Trick is to modify the film strip holder by removing one of the bars. Then I do 48bit RAW scans with plenty of overlap. Next, I reprocess the RAW scans as 24bit outputs and LOCK UP the exposure for both sides of the neg. This means you can comp both halves in Photoshop. Works brilliantly.
