I use the original Scan Dual for Realist-mount slides.  Works fine.  Cutting
the slide carrier took a while, but I'm not good with tools.  I gave up
after cutting a gap between two of the slots, but it doesn't make much
difference since taking the slide out & putting another in is very small
portion of the total time & you have to slide the carrier in & out by hand
for each scan anyway.
