ABSTRACT:
A line CCD scanner includes a photo film passageway in which developed photo film is positioned. A light source illuminates an image in the photo film positioned in the photo film passageway. A line CCD reads the image being illuminated. A mask member is secured to the photo film passageway. The image is positioned at the mask member. A mask slit is formed in the mask member, for directing light from the light source toward the photo film. The mask slit has a small width with reference to a predetermined direction. Furthermore, a protrusion portion is disposed on the mask member to extend in the width direction of the photo film, provided with the mask slit formed in a middle thereof, for flexing the photo film in the longitudinal direction to remove flexing in the width direction.
