Hey,
I have an issue with a Eumig 605d projector. While playing std 8 it focuses fine but when i try to view super8 it will only focus on one side. I have had a bit of an investigate and have found that 2 small screws on the removeable gate can be adjusted to alter the way it focuses but to get it to focus properly seems impossible.
Am i snooping in the right area here or am i missing something?
any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
Hugh

when this happens it means someone adjusted the front part of the gate (the lens holder) wrong. there are four screws and the position of your lens is very important to the position of the film. maybe you bumped it into something hence bending it in someway or someone has been screwing around literaly.
