Also it would be necessary to determine if a loaded roll affected by ''vinegar syndrome'' would leave tainting residue in the digitizer, putting all subsequent rolls at risk. That kind of analysis is way above the pay grade of most digitizer technicians, I'd guess.
- dylan604 3y agoIn practice, the scanner would be cleaned after each roll. This is how we handled motion picture film scanning. With stock in good condition, the cleaning after each reel is not necessary. I can only imagine that a microfilm scanner would by the nature of the format be much much smaller than a 16mm/35mm scanner. To me, that would make the cleaning very tedious and time consuming.
