I recently got a Sankyo 500 projector and it works great, except that the speed is a little fast. It makes the voices a little high pitched. I would say maybe a couple fps fast (a very uneducated guess). The speed adjustment is a flip knob and it appears to be a all electronic switch so I'm not sure if this can be adjusted or not. If someone had any suggestions of what I could do I would be very grateful. Thanks.

Zechariah,

Welcome to the 8mm Forum! This thread should be of service. Jon Addams helpfully points out the trimmer pots that will adjust the speed on your 500.
