This Bell & Howell Movie Projector has the same quality as the Chinon Dual 8MM Movie Projector.
With this projector you can very easily transfer your film to video with great at home quality results (I did myself and do not need it anymore)
The Projector is a Bell & Howell 10MS and has the following features:
Working lamp which can still be purchased from any supplier.
Brand New Belt installed
Very quiet running machine
Auto-Load-Automatic threading feature
Variable speed which is needed for the DVD or Video transfer and ajustable for the fast and slow speed
This projector also has that True Rheostat Variable speed control which is a MUST HAVE for great film transferring to VHS or DVD to eliminate flicker caused by the improper shutter speed. This allows you to sync the projectors frame rate up with YOUR camcorder scan rate to take out that flicker which you would see if you could not control the frame rate...PLUS this has the THREE BLADE SHUTTER..which is also good for the video transfers.
This will accept both Regular 8 and Super 8MM film
The lens is a F 1:1.5 18-30mm Zoom lens which projects a clear sharp big image...
This also has a format selector for the regular 8mm or the super 8mm film, built in automatic loop former, focus, and function switch, and framer control.
This has off/forward/reverse/lamp/still
This projector will hold reels from 50 ft.-400 ft.
You can even watch your film in reverse on this projector.
This machine will play both formats of films. The regular 8 and the super 8mm films.
This is a very easy to operate machine..all you do is select the film format you need, insert film, then set to the FORWARD position and the film will feed automatically since this is an autoload projector..the film will go right onto the auto take up reel with out stopping to load the reel.
This comes with a 400ft. auto-load take up reel and Film trimmer
excellent operating condition, and very compact
excellent outside cosmetic condition. I would say this is a MINT OUTFIT
