Googled the Opteka equipment recommended by Kerry Dressler and learned that the Opteka High Definition II Slide Copier/Duplicator is available for $79.99.
My experience with Kerry, her photography, and her knowledge of equipment has been tremendously positive. Here's a description (from a seller, of course): "The new Opteka High Definition Digital Duplicator attaches onto the lens adapter or the filter thread of your existing lens. This means it can be connected to virtually any camera. The built-in high definition close-up optics allow you to transfer slides onto digital cameras easily and with no loss in quality - it will actually enhance your pictures! Additionally the built-in detachable macro lens allows you to take extreme high resolution close-up shots! "Advances in high index optical glasses, new barrel materials and exotic anti-reflection coatings, along with the latest in computer-aided-design and manufacturing, are combined to produce lenses of unprecedented quality."
