Only the "G" version seems to be readily available as new old stock. Is the "GR" version valuable enough in use to continue the wait/hunt for it or should I buy a "G"? Thanks, Tim TimVermont

I have the non-rotating and can scan three 6x6 or two 6x9 frames at a time. Unless you have real issues with your horizons, I'd suggest you save your money and get the non-rotating variety.
