I rarely get my Carousel out these days, but then I've got one of those Reflectas with a built-in screen that gets used instead of a lightbox for 35mm these days, so it's easier to just use that for projection than dig out the Carousel. And someday I must get round to getting a projector for MF...but I've got three 35mm slide projectors, and that's really two too many, especially at my reduced rate of 35mm slide film usage.

I still use a high end Carousel for 35mm and a Rollei P66s for medium format. I don't see how any digital projection can be better at this time... maybe in the next few years.
