Im interested in auto advance, timed advance, remote control, manual focus, and the ability to change or edit the tray order. I also would like a minimum of 250w lamp up to 500w. I cannot find any info showing all their projectors, no manuals, no comparison charts, only a list of projectors on wiki. Best I can tell is I need a P66 but it seems like there were about 4 versions of the P66. Also what’s is a good beginning lens and what would be the dream lens. I have a 94” diagonal screen and am about 12 from it.

You may have to look for 'Rolleiflex' instead of 'Rollieflex'

I purchased a P66S. It comes with a zoom lens which I’ll replace, but it will get me started. The seller gave me a link to the owners manual which answered all my questions. I can’t wait to get my first roll of transparency film developed!

If you really don’t need autofocus, autofeed, etc., I would look for a Leitz Prado 500. Built for auditoriums, but with switch to reduce intense of light to 250. Not much to go wrong...no complicated electronics.
