Dr. Harper, I don't know what the device is but at a paper in Spartanburg SC where a friend of mine is the photo editor they have such a device. They use it for editing the film. They just stick the negs in it and look at them on a monitor and choose from that which to scan. So there is something like what you describe still on the market today.
