Camlock on a SB

D-1-4 stuff isn't that expensive anymore as most of the import lathes use it. If you search ebay you'll find a lot of D-1-4 stuff, plus all the catalog vendors have it in the cheaper imported lines. One of the cheaper online sources is cdco tools, but I've heard reports of some of their chucks not being so good.
 
As far as comments on the camlock spindles it's definitely a major improvement of the threaded spindles. It's pretty much become the industry standard in lathe spindles. Once you have one, you'll never want to go back to the treaded spindle.
