Just as it says on the tin. With my new larger screen, I need a bigger picture, and the 38mm lens would be perfect.

I will, of course, have the standard 50mm lens to trade if anyone is interested.

Thanks for looking.

Valves and celluloid - a great combination!

Not quite yet, Mike. It'll be a few months yet - but progress is sure, if but a little slow at the moment. The new pull-down screen is now fixed to the ceiling in the corect place, so I can at least run some films and slides!

Cheers,

David, I didn't realise Elmo did a 38mm lens so that is good to learn. I use a 20mm lens which is great but does mean the projector is a little close

Dave,

Which projector/screen arrangement did you decide on in the end?
