Film holder to scan 9.2 mm [Minox](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minox) spy camera¹ film with a standard flatbed scanner with a transparency unit. Put the film strips into the holder, carrier down, emulsion up, secure them in place with the clamp, put the whole holder into the gap of the standard 135 (35 mm) film holder on the scanner glass and scan you pictures. There are four versions. The gap for the 35 mm film is wide enough to scan two Minox strips side by side, but i found the Epson software for my scanner was a bit of a PIA when using the two strip holder. There are two different lengths versions. The original Minox processing returned four 10 picture strips, but i had some slightly longer strips and made a longer holder for them. The Pont du Gard photo was scanned with this double film holder. You can’t expect too high resolution from a 9.2 mm film strip, and the picture is 46 years old, too. The scanner software did a great job with the old material missing the orange tint of C-41 films. I ended up scanning most of the old Minox films i inherited with my film scanner, using my [Reflecta ProScan Minox film holder](https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3337717).
