FWIW, I just bought a Mtek flatbed for $50US (about as entry level as you

The scanner can only take bare strips of film - it won't accept mounted

The units sold in North America scan slides as well. It is both stated

As those who bother reading my comments know, I am an advocate of buying
used equipment and non-bleeding edge. It saves money, it sometimes even
protects you from the first buyer screw which means you end up paying
the most for a product which isn't perfected, and end up playing beta

important, and kept quality up as a result, and I have recommended it
over the Tamarack 2400 to people on several lists.
