Hey Brett,

I would second Alain's list, minus the Bell + Howell.
Cinema Project has primarily used the Apollo QL-100 and Hokushin SC-210 and they are great with splices, shrunken film, and very gentle on prints.
The Paegant we mostly just use for 18fps work.

Best,

Jeremy

You'd be better off with an Eiki SSL, Kodak Pageant 250S, Hokushin SC-210, Apollo QL-100, or
Bell & Howell 1574.

Better machines, and more lens options.

Hey all,

My program is looking to purchase a 16mm projector for classroom use. It will be permanently installed in a black box/production studio teaching space, with a fairly short throw to the screen.

One of the projectors we're looking at is the ELMO 16-CL, which I've never used before, so any feedback/comments about this model, or other projector suggestions for the context outlined above, would be greatly appreciated. We've allocated approximately $500 towards the purchase.

Thanks in advance.

- Brett
