Any advice for scanning APS film?

Question

You may remember APS film. It came out in the 90s, and was quickly replaced by digital.
The film was connected to the cannister in a clever way that allowed you to rewind mid-roll.

Are there any devices for scanning APS film?
Is it safe to break the cannisters open?

Answer

Well, sure there are devices for scanning APS film. You can get an APS adapter for a Nikon Coolscan IV. I have a couple old Minolta DiMAGE Scan Dual IIs that accept APS.

You can use a flatbed (V700 is probably the best) with an uncut-120 film holder, secure the film in the holder, then cut the images in Photoshop (scan software, GIMP, whatever) as you scan them.

Breaking the canister is how you get to the film. So once it's developed that's not an issue, as far as i understand your question.

Or you can hire people to do it. Pixmonix, DigMyPics, ScanMyPhotos, etc.
