Can anybody tell me what I might have to adjust on my elmo editor the left side appears darker than the rest although this picture barely shows it.

Try removing the plastic and metal covers exposing the lamp. Loosen the screw securing the lamp and moving the bulb forward or back to see if the picture improves.

Great Jim! There's not much that can go wrong on that viewer. Although I did repair one that the shutter fell off. It was tricky to get it lined up again, but I glued it back on and it was good to go [Smile]
