But it should give you reasonable quality and all the slides should scan in total. Most people(like myself) only scan MF on the flatbed scanner because they give good quality for a very low price. 35mm is mostly scanned with dedicated scanners. The cheapest(eur 350) is the Minolta dual 4 which already gives much better quality than the flatbeds.
