Is $200 too much for a slide show?

It will involve mixing photos and old footage (some digital restoration may be needed) for someone's 90th birthday. Not sure how long it will take but there might be a lot of photos to scan and maybe restore to acceptable quality.
Thinking the "final cut" will be about 7 minutes on DVD ( unless the client specifically requests longer ) and it will be done in chronological order, like a story without words.

I've done this before, and it took me about a week, doing an hour or two everyday, and editing everything. Probably wouldn't take me half as long now, but still a lot of hours....

I thought $250 would be a fair price, but $200 is as low as I think I can go. What do you guys think?

Just ask yourself: "How much is it worth to you?"

Seems like about 17 bucks an hour, sounds very, very fair.
 
I'm doing a slide show right now and the hours add up, plus the client keeps changing the photos. It 3 min long and they are $600 in so far.
