There has been much posted here about HID conversions of 8mm projectors by Lee, Alan, and others, but I would really like to hear about the experience of operating a HID converted machine. Is the increase in brightness really impactful, even a game changer for super 8 projection, are colors desaturated or changed in any way, how awkward is the actual process of running multiple reel changes in a show when you have to have the light on all the time, is increased light spill from the projector an issue, is it a more complex process than running a regular (un-modified) machine? Are there any down sides to HID conversion of S8 projectors, or any reservations about it?
I would really like to hear from people in the know on this subject.
