I have up for auction a beautiful Elmo ST180E Super 8 Projector. This is in mint condition and is in perfect working order.

How do you manage to get the input guide to change shape between images? [Big Grin]

He he! Oops! Is there a difference between the 2 models with the different input guides? Just want to make sure!

None at all. Just me being a bit suspicious and trying to catch you out [Wink]

Awww! Thanks All!
Funny where you find projectors sometimes. One of my fathers friends said, "Hey...don't you mess around with old cameras?" I said "umm...movie ones. Unless you have a Leica!"
"No Leica, but I have this thingy called an Elmo."
**My eyes widen. **Please let it be an Elmo GS1200 Xenon!***
He then pulls out an Elmo ST-180 from his garage.
"Yup. Got it in the 80's. I have a camera that goes with it but I seem to have lost it. But I shot one roll. Put the film through the projector. That was it..then I got into Video."
So that's the history of it. Everything is beautiful inside but..as might be expected, belts were gone and the fuse was shot.
Replaced, re-lubed, cleaned- checked out a film and Voila! EBay Central!

did they ever make a non ETC regular eight version of that projector? I'd like one of those.
