I had one of these once, and found it pretty soft. If you want to dupe slides
onto film, you're much better off with the OM 80mm f4 macro, a bellows, and a
copying extension.
Thinking it would be a nifty way to "scan" slides, I then adopted a bellows
(Nikon PB-4) to micro four thirds, and found I could not capture full slides
with the matching slide copier, due to the crop factor. (Well, duh!)
After harvest and market season is over this month, I'm planning to extend the
slide copier bellows, so that I can properly capture an entire 36x24mm slide on
MFT.
So just be aware that you can't use such a device to "scan" slides onto
anything smaller than Fool Frame digital, without some modification.
