The slide duplicator is screwed onto the filter thread of the lens. It therefore depends on the diameter of the filter thread (52 or 58mm filter thread should be used; according to the manufacturer's specifications, adapter rings can be purchased for other thread sizes). The brand of camera is irrelevant. I would recommend a zoom lens that covers the normal focal length and a slight telephoto (i.e. something around 50-80 mm in 35 mm format). This allows you to select the optimum section to capture the slide/negative.
The best focal length is between 80 and 120 mm. The diameter of the thread is 52 mm but there are additional adapter rings for 55, 58, 62, 67, 72 and 77 mm threads.
Yes, but it takes a little more effort. You take a picture in exactly the same way as slides. But then you have a negative and you can convert it back into a positive with simple software. Any image processing programme can make a negative from an image. A negative from a negative is a positive. In most cases, colour correction is then required, which is easily done with automatic correction.
The delivery I received only included an adapter ring. 58 mm attachment to 52 mm lens.
Yes. Flash or continuous light.
