Hi all,

I wish to set up a permanent, single projector, slide projection
arrangement at home to show slides taken with my M6 and would appreciate
advice. My projection distance is about 16 feet, and it is unlikely that
I will be glass mounting slides. I am considering the Pradovit P300,
P600 IR and the RT, with the 90 mm colorplan or super colorplan lens.
The Rolleivision MSC twin projector seems interesting as well, in that
it has two lenses allowing dissolve presentations with the one
projector. The Rolleis come with Shneider AV-Xenotar and Rollei AV
Apogen lenses, but there is only 150W bulb to each lens.

Do any of you have personal experience with the Rolleis? Is 150 W enough
or will quality suffer? Does the Leica Super colorplan make a difference
even if slides are not in glass? Any suggestions regarding a ceiling
mounted screen?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
