Somebody was cleaning out the closet of his deceased father and found an old slide projector. He advertised it at the local classifieds site. Guess what, he sold it to me. At last I've found a way to marry my Rollei mf slides with a Leitz piece of equipment. I just bought a Prado 66. I was a bit concerned if the lamps are still available. They seem to be, but at a high cost. Guess what, the former owner worked for Philips and I got 4 spare bulbs with it. An half hour before that I finally found a 3.5f in good but user condition. Turned out to be a late white face version. Not nice enough for a collector but very capable for me as an user. The former owner sold it because he 'upgraded' to digital. Can't wait to shoot some of the new b/w slide film of Rollei One of the best evenings I had in quit some time. Cheers, Michiel Fokkema
