Be aware that this projector is sold as untested and the seller, who has a 89,5 % rate, uses a video of another projector in his add.

Is this a projector that you have to put a twist in the film when playing optical sound film?

[Dominique De Bast]

The picture is indeed miror reversed, Terry. I learned recently that Ligonie sold (at high price) special lenses to get the correct picture with optical sound films. It's possible if you're handy to built your own one.

Thanks Dom
As you highlight the seller has a poor feedback history, but the start price is good. Trouble is as you also point out it is untested and buying from abroad these days is a bit of a mine field since Brexit.

There is another listed Ligonie OSM950 9.5mm Sound Projector, Bolex Conversion Optical/Magnetic.

RARE CAMERA LIGONIA 9.5MM SK 2002 - BEAULIEU - Apparently only 150 were made from 1976 to 1984, looks similar to the 16mm version.
