Mark C. mentioned light fall off using a bellows setup, and I have had the same
issues with a
similar arrangement. I also found it very fiddly to establish focus, even
using auto-focus, and it
was all too easy to knock the set up out of kilter when putting the slides in.
The light source has

Depending on what quality you need and how many slides you have, the cheap way
I used may work:
To make a digital slide show to run at my son's rehearsal dinner, I pulled
slides from different times during his childhood, and had his fiancee's mother
send me some of hers--maybe 60 or 70 slides i
I suspect the scanner will do a better job. My Epson 850 makes gorgeous scans
from 35 mm transparencies. Just printed a razor sharp and beautifully rendered
18 x12 print from a 30 year old Kodachrome.

I've scanned many, many slides over the years using all manner of different
setups. Each has its pluses and minuses.
I worry about using older bellows units with DSLRs because of dust. Bellows are
great at capturing dust in their many nooks and crannies.
One of the more successful copy setups
Darren,
I never found the right lens combination to use with the bellows to
capture the whole slide.

I used an old m42 screw mount bellows for several years with my
snowflake photos. I was leery about putting the m42 to K adapter onto
DSLR / SLR, just because removing the adapter can be fiddly. So I put
the adapter on a 12mm extension tube and mounted the bellows on that,
then mounted the tub

Darren,
These are very impressive images.

You really mastered how to "capture" them "in the right light"
consistently.

As you often do, you have an interesting angle of view. You seldom leave
any doubt about what the subject is. My only nit would be that patch of
green in the lower right. It breaks up the color scheme & is a bright &
shiny distraction. Nice one.

Got off work yesterday to find central Nebraska to be in quite the
supercell environment and had a fun little local chase until about an
hour after sundown. Here are two images from the outing. Both were
taken from essentially the same spot.

Amazon shows the body only at $449, via some vendor I've
