The slide cubes are easy to load and sort, carosels are less so.
The big images will amaze you.
Based on my experience years ago with two Bell and Howell slide cube
projectors, I would suggest that they be avoided.
Minolta also changed mounts, but that did not prevent them to be now in

Not true either. There were two bodies release simultaneously. I think it
was 620 and 630 (it could have been 650 and 630). They were practical
speaking identical and amateur bodies like the competition at the time.
Generally the magazines, film, and albums are presented for what they are

purchaser nor a back of the magazine shop 'viewer'. Barring the occasional

For my taste, I find Scala overexposed at its nominal ISO of 200. I find

better luck making prints by using paper negatives.
