... you appear to state that there is only one lens
that can be used for slide coping.  This just is not so!

You're right, of course. I guess my caveat:

wasn't strongly stated enough. But the 80/4 IS optimized for 1:1, and IS the recommended way to go.

Considering the proposed use for these copies (Photo CD), I think a Spiratone or Cambron zoom slide copier for $119.95 would probably work just fine, but oh, the angst that comes when you run over your Zuiko dogma with that bad karma!
