[Leica] Interesting article on digitizing film

[Tina Manley]

I'm using the Nikon ES-1 Slide copier with the Leica R 100 Macro lens and
the Elpro 1:1 extender and numerous step up and step down rings to make
everything fit.  I'm still experimenting!!  It works fine on the M240 but I
want to make it work on the SL, too.  The limitation on that seems to be
the R to T off brand converter that I have.  I've ordered a Leica R to SL
converter that should work - $750!!!!!!!  It had better perform miracles.

I'll keep you posted.
