JK has a page on their website about converting old optical printers to use
DSLRs http://www.jkcamera.com/digital_printer.htm

Has anyone put together their own (less than $7450) digital optical printer?
I put together a make-shift animation stand with a DSLR a few years ago and
the quality was pretty good for the price (under $200 excluding the cost of
the camera).
