I have an Elmo silver 1.1 lens that in cosmetic terms is ideal for a silver ST-1200 or a ST-600. I plan to sell the projector I used it with but I'd still like a Elmo 1.1 to use with a ST-180 I've acquired.

If anyone has a black 1.1, also in excellent condition, that they would like to swap because they own a silver ST, then both our projectors will look right!

I've seen it claimed that the silver version was produced first and has the edge in terms of quality, but I don't know if this is true.

A little off topic but!

I have not seen the Silver one before,you think you could upload a photo or post a link so i could look at one.

I have a black F:1.1 and just want to see what it might look like.

Thanks.

Hi Adrian, how are you? I'm really interested.
I tried to mail you by using the forum, but it was not possible to deliver my message.

I have a couple of 1,1 (black version, both perfect). I could part with one of them since I'd really like a silver one for my ST 1200 HD.

Contact me at

gloncri (at) hotmail.it, please.

If it is not too late, of course.
All the best and thanks.

GIAN

Barrie - I've never posted a photo here before but here's a first attempt. This is my lens:

Gian - Many thanks for your response. Sorry you couldn't reach me direct but I've amended my profile to make this possible. I'll email you later today.
