This copier must be connected to the filter thread end of a lens for proper functioning - the copier does not connect directly to the body of the camera.

You should select a lens that has 100mm** of focal length within it's range to use with the copier, as 100mm will fill the camera's frame with the image of a slide using this copier. For instance, a 75-150mm lens or a 35-105mm lens, or a 100mm fixed lens are all good lenses to use with this copier - any lens that has 100mm within it's focal length range. The best image quality is achieved at between 80mm and 120mm with SLR lenses and this copier.


**This 100mm focal length range is as measured in 35mm equivalency terms. If you don't know the focal length of your lens in 35mm terms, you will need to convert it with a multiplier specific to your camera/sensor combination. This is a multiplying factor that relates your camera’s true focal length to its 35mm equivalent value.  We have provided the multiplier, where known, in the table above, next to the camera model in the form (m=1.5x). The focal length multiplier should also be printed in your camera's owner’s manual.

Commonly this multiplier is about 1.5x, and if this is the case, a 100mm lens will be equivalent to a 150mm lens on a 35mm camera (multiply 100 x 1.5). A 28-90mm lens would translate to 42-135mm.

An adapter, if necessary, depends upon the lens that you choose to use with the copier. After you've selected the lens that you would like to use with the copier, the next question is, what is the filter thread size on that lens?

The copier has 52mm threads, so if the filter thread size on the chosen lens is 62mm, you will need a 62-52mm step-down adapter. If the thread size on the chosen lens is 46mm, you will need a 46-52mm step-up adapter. Very large or very small sizes may require two adapters: for instance, 72mm filter threads will require 72-58mm and 58-52mm step-down adapters.

You will need whatever adapters are necessary to get from the filter thread size on the chosen lens to the target size of 52mm for the copier. If the thread size on the lens is 52mm you wont need to use an adapter. We carry a selection of standard adapters for your convenience, and they are widely available elsewhere.

An optional (not included) negative / slide / microfilm carrier accessory (click here to view) is available; it fits into the slide copier and enables copies to be made from un-mounted 35mm negative, transparency strips, black and white film, even 35mm microfilm. The opposite side of this carrier has a slide carrier slot designed for use with mounted 35mm slides: the slide carrier, when used in combination with our copier, surrounds and flattens your mounted slide film against the copier face, facilitating the best possible image quality.

If you are looking for a high quality option for film duplication at an affordable price, you have found it!

You can use various light sources to illuminate your slides or film. For instance, point your camera, with the slide copier attachment installed, towards: the sky, a light box, a light bulb, or point your camera at a white wall (or white paper taped to a wall) and use your camera's flash.
