I have been given the task of finding out about slidemakers, so this
thread has been of some interest. It appears to me that you can use
different methods, the cheap and chearful simple camera on a tripod, 
the intermediately priced strap-on photobox, and the very expensive
independent software driven machines like Lasergraphics.

If anybody has compared these different methods, or can share
experiances with different equipment, I would be more than grateful
to hear from them.
