Hi well recently I was asking about how people found the light output etc with fitting a two blade shutter. For me I was considering it in a very nice Elmo ST180 100 watt usual I bought off ebay to be my main machine.
Well I decided to go for it and got the machine sent straight to Elmo Central in the UK, the only place for me to get it done. Our own Mr Elmo, Kev, F.
Kevs wizard like know how has serviced, belted her and fitted the two blade for me so when it got here it runs like a dream but the best bit is really what the two blade has done for the machine.
STUNNING, the picture quality !!!! what a difference over the old std machine 600 feet elmo.
Its just such a noticeable jump in picture quality even with just the std 1.3 lens still and xenophot bulb, the prints look more vital and crisp and sharpened up and of course a little brighter, The real bonus for me as well is that the colours are actually looking nicer as well.
All in all chuffed to bits on a great job well done and the little Elmo now performing like an ST1200. It really is that good.
If like me you are one of the more budget or family types running elmo 160, 600,s or a 180 or even a GS800 this would be one of the best things you can do for your machine.
Thank You Kev, and thank you Elmo.
Best Mark.
