Does anyone on the forum have experience with the Bell & Howell 10MS Projector? I'm looking to find a good,solid silent projector and was wondering if this model was worth owning. I remember these being advertised back in the day.

Cheers all,

I have had a few of these. I really never had any problems with them. One nice feature is the variable speed control useful in transfers. The lens is F1.8 18-30mm. My only complaint is the lens fit is not tight and there is considerable play with the lens when focusing and zooming. Once you have it set it does stay put. Also these take a CXR/CXL bulb and they usually go for $20 (if your lucky) and up.

Hope that helps!
