Hi all,
I'm looking for a 1:1.4/20mm lens for my recently acquired Elmo 16CL.
Also looking for the "0.8x-1.25x zoom device" (not the converter).
Is there another zoom lens available, apart from the official Elmo 1:1.7/50-100mm?

Any help, advice, offer appreciated.

(I guess I'm just tired of carrying the projector back and forth until I get a good image size...)

Hi Jean-Marc, I have a lovely 5/8 inch lens that has great optics and a very nice larger than usual rear element, often they are small this is much larger and agreat lens.
You can get a sleeve for £30 from classic home cinema that will take it and other cheaper lenses.
Its justa thought if you dn`t get a 20mm.
I`m lokking for £35 and likely a few extras, also got some very ncie 16mm trailers up on ebay, good deal and odd free-bee if you facny any and thanks for the kind words.
Best Mark.

Mark, thanks for the tip.

CHC, of course, silly me, I should have started looking there first...

5/8... OK... I guess this is imperial, right?

I'll have a look at your new ebay sales...

Hi Jean-Marc yes its about 16mm, very handy in a small room.
I used to have a CL or two, Kev and Tony have them now.
I was abit into 16mm but now abit 16mm and super 8, got some cracking 16mm trailers up on ebay at the moment,good deal if you fancy any, not sure if I should sell them really but funding a few 8mm titles again.
Happy hunting.
