My new P300 does that occasionally. usually when I'm showing slides to other people and can't stop to fiddle with the entangs. (entangs, also intangs - the entangled electrical and mechanical bits that lurk inside innocuous boxes, whether collectible or not). However, all the time a slide is in place it makes a fairly loud buzz. It runs quietly with no slide in. It doesn't matter if it is a card or plastic-mounted slide (nor even if it is a Leica snap). If I lift the slide out and gently replace the single slide unit the buzzing stops - until I advance to the next slide. The same thing happens if I adjust the focus via the remote.Touching the slide mount itself doesn't stop the buzz. So far, I haven't managed to put my finger on the problem, either metaphorically or literally. Any suggestions? Any other cases of this malaise?
