Hmm, I tried to post a link here and was not allowed to do so for some reason????

Whats going on?

The link was to a harmless photo of one of these projectors.

They were a re-badged Hokushin SC-210, which was a great machune.

Hokushins are great, especially the later SC210 models. A bit like the Elmo 16-CL, but without the melting rubber rollers, with line out and 42.5mm lenses. Here's one for sale on a Dutch auction site
Hokushin
I have two of these with 250W halogen and one with 300W Xenon, my favorite machines.
There are still a lot of these projectors around in Holland, they were serviced by Technofilm who had contracts with schools and the army, I believe. I would highly recommend one of these.

Hi Peter,

I tried to mail you, but you blocked your mail.

Since you know these Hokushins well, I hope you can tell me the difference between 2 different SC-210 models.
At the moment there are 3 for sale on marktplaats.
But 1 has less buttons then the other 2.
Do you know the difference?
And are these Hokushins better then my Elmo 16-CL?

Thanks, Hans

Hans, you can contact me too about Hokuchin projectors. I have one too (not for sale ). Don't remember the exact model right now but if I can help, I will be glad.

Thanks George, but as you know I have to decrease my collection.
So if a Hokushin isn't a real upgrade compared to my Elmo 16-CL Deluxe and Elmo 16-CL Xenon, it would be unwise to buy one.
