Hi james,
Concorde shot nicely copied and a nice photo to boot and your black box system isnt that far off the “Ohnar” copier that I paid £70 notes for.I suppose the only snag with the idea is the focus problem or maybe does it work on the same principal as the ohnar and that is once focused you then just line the slide up straight to collect as much image as poss.
It would be good if you could send a rough diagram of the home built copier,but will understand if its something you want to keep as your own.At one time in the old SLR days slide was often too highly over rated for my liking and the only couple of E.6 film for my liking that is good for copying is Kodachrome and Agfa.
I now find scanning good quality prints give better results than slide film and find its only glory days were in dark rooms.I even tried copying images with a digi cam after they were put in the projector and blown up on the wall but to no avail the quality isnt the same somehow.Anyway if you manage to get to the end of this post and your still awake there is lots of fun just messing about doing this copying lark and you learn a few bits and bobs along the way.He,he.:):)
