Yes, that would seem to be possible, scanning a 12 frame strip with two
insertions.

After using an older Nikon scanner LS-2000, I start to doubt this
guess.

I have now tried this with an unmodified SA-21 and it does indeed cause
a problem, although not a crash. The film is just ejected and a message
saying that only 2-6 frames can be scanned is displayed. So, I guess
the only options are the modification I suggested or a full SA-30
adapter.

Kennedy,
Thanks. Could you give me any clue of how the SA-30 roll film adapter
works? Will it first scans all the frames and gives a preview or just
scans frames one by one. If the former, I think my film without blank
separation will still get problems. I found that the offset function of
Vuescan is really good. If the scanner scans frames one by one when
using SA-30, then Vuescan + SA-30 should be a good solution for me.

The Sa-30 works just the same as the SA-21, except it copes with up to

40 frames. How it scans depends on the application you use to scan.
