    sorry about the pics no scanner and it's tough taking pics with a bright white background

    I am just posting this so we can all try to figure a way that customs doesn't charge us if possible, come on used cables and they want a piece ? and they were a gift ;)

    I'm glad you cleared that up. I couldn't read a single word from those photos ;) Does your camera have a macro mode? It might help focus at close distances.

    The only difference I see from packages that I've sent to Canada is the Global Priority Mail. I've always sent stuff Airmail Parcel Post. I'll make sure I ask my buyer from Alberta what, if any, he had to pay on that film scanner I just sent him.
    For rig details, see my profile. Nothing here anymore...
