Author Topic: Emulsion side Frank Angel Film God Posts: 5305 From: Brooklyn NY USA Registered: Dec 1999 posted 02-05-2002 02:15 AM                        John, The Eastman 25B (the finest 16mm projectors every made, IMHO) happens to be one of those few 16mm projectors that has a sound focusing design -- smooth as butter too. It's a shame EK stopped stocking parts for it. The intermittent couping which has a rubber center to reduce vibration eventually looses its resiliancy and the intermittent and shutter go out of timing -- shutter ghost gallore, to echo another topic. I wound up fashioning our own replacement out of truck tires.  |  IP: Logged John Pytlak Film God Posts: 9987 From: Rochester, NY 14650-1922 Registered: Jan 2000 posted 02-05-2002 07:56 AM                        Phil --- I was just answering your rhetorical question regarding whether having the image go through the base degraded image quality. ------------------ John P.
