Opteka HD2 Slide Copier [Posted on 2007-09-07]
This slide copier works beautifully when combined with a digital camera that has a zoom lens. You can do a bit of cropping with ease although cleaning up the image is probably best left to your photo program. Duplicated slides are as sharp as originals. As for color balance, saturation etc., all that can be corrected (if really necessary)in your photo program.
I made a wooden jig that holds the camera-duplicator and the light source in a line and allows the rig to be affixed to a work table at an angle such that you get a direct view of the camera screen.
Their are several pleasant surprises to the lens system (1) the quality of the 10 diopter lens is top shelf (2) the main body of the duplicator can be used on any number of digital cameras using the proper adapter ring and (3) by unscrewing the lens from the body of the duplicator you have a super close-up lens. By mounting the camera vertically on any mechanism that allows you to smoothly move the camera up and down, you can easily go from 1/2X to 2X magnification with plenty of working distance between the lens and the subject.
As you might guess I am more than fully satisfied with this product (If only everything else I have purchased worked so well).

Opteka HD² Slide Copier For Kodak Camera [Posted on 2007-10-27]
Very handy little item. My Parents recently had passed away and they had all these slides. After compacting them down to the ones I wanted to keep, I was going to take them to someone and have them transfer them to picture format. came across this by chance,just realize they wont be as clear as your digital pictures. (if you are using a good quality digital camera) But with a little adjusting they come out really nice. Worth the price and convenience.
