Author Topic: Does anyone use the E.L.F. (endless loop film system)? John Walsh Film God Posts: 2490 From: Connecticut, USA, Earth, Milky Way Registered: Oct 1999 posted 07-30-2001 01:41 PM                     Oh, yeah... I remember those things. My high school had a bunch. The cartridge case was clear plastic; you could see the film bouncing and flopping around... rarly saw one jam though. But, they were noisy (not the cartridge, just the projector.) Hard to listen to, "Your Earth and You; Tectonic Plate Movement" even with headphones.  |  IP: Logged Kyle Connolly Film Handler Posts: 13 From: Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Registered: Apr 2001 posted 07-30-2001 03:29 PM                     This may sound like a stupid question, but how does an Endless Loop Platter work? The pictures on the Christie Site don't really help. If anyone has pictures or diagrams of how it works it would be appreciated. Thanks  |  IP: Logged William T.
