It has an upper scan bed for reflective materials, as well as a lower scan
bed/tray for transparent materials. It comes with a 8x10 film tray. Other
size trays are also available, including: a tray that holds 12 35mm slides, a
tray that holds 2 35mm film strips, a tray that holds 4, 4"x 5" film, and a
tray that holds 2 6 x 9 cm.
I have used the film tray in xscanimage under gimp. I selected TMA from Scan
Source.
