I enjoy enjoy using a 6x9, just for kicks, at times too:

Moskva-5 (that one will really try your patience)

Bessa II

I just scan on a flatbed. I just lay the stuff on the glass and scan.
Works like a charm. It's not worth doing with a dedicated film scanner. The
result is simply not that much better.
