It gets expensive if you have to change it every year or so. The lenticular screens do have a wider viewing angle than the plain matte white ones, so look at the layout of your viewing area carefully. My favourite screen is a matte white wall, unfortunately our new (to us) house is to be rather warmly coloured so I will have to invest in a screen as well. Maybe I could just put colour correction filters on the projector lens....or make everyone wear coloured glasses. :-) John Collier > From: "Julian Koplen" <jkoplen@mindspring.com> > > Is there an easy recommendation for a slide projection screen for home use? > I will be viewing mostly old Kodachromes and using an equally old Pradolux > RT-300 with its carousel trays.
