Subject: [Leica] Leica queries - bellows adapters and slide/film copying?

I've got a couple questions.

Has anyone tried using an M8 (or a 4/3 micro camera, for that matter) as 
a slide/film digitizer?

I suppose in theory, it should work.

Questions:

- did Leica make a slide or film copier setup for the Visoflex?  If so, 
what were the part numbers?

- did Leica make a slide or film copier setup for the Visoflex and 
bellows?  If so, what were the part numbers?

- or would this be a silly option?  The M8 would produce a 10 meg file, 
which I would think is pretty good for a scan.

- what about doing 6x9 cm?  4x5 inch?  Is it just a matter of achieving 
the right setup?  ie. light box, stand, correct M8/Visoflex/Bellows/lens 
combo?
