I have read several reports from people who have used older models of Nikon slide feeders. As I recall, they found the feeders were very reliable with plastic slide mounts. With card mounts there was a risk that the feeder would try to gobble two slides at the same time, causing a jam. This was easily averted by reducing the size of an input slot (with, for example, a piece of credit card held on with adhesive tape). Does this apply to the current model, does anyone know?
