Would be nice.  But who makes one for under, say, $15k with at least a 40
slide feeder?  I'm using the Nikon LS-4000 with the SF-200 feeder.  The main
problem I have with it is the plastic mounts that the local pro labs use.
If the mounts are sealed properly, the slides tend to feed pretty well.  But
if, as was the case with a batch of 250 rolls I got back a few months ago,
the "rivets" are not flush or near to it, they jam like crazy.
