Pricey, but well worth it!

Tired of moving around black paper cardboard? Using flimsy home-made masks? Breaking film or slide holders? Having to re-center your film/slides to photograph? This sturdy little device is the answer. Permits fast duplication of film and slides possible on top of a light box. If you have to digitize more than a dozen slides at a time, strongly suggest getting this accessory.

Quality build and it does what it is designed to do.

I already had a quality copy stand to work from. When coupled with the Kaiser Slimline Plano LED flat panel, the Kaiser FilmCopy Vario works just as billed. The negatives are supported flat and the slides are easy to change out. I've used other methods for copying slides and negatives and this is the best I've used. Moving from one slide or negative to the next is as fast as it can be. Quality of the copy now just depends on my lens, camera, supporting stand, and technique. My only negative comment is that it is a little pricey.
