Last weekend I managed to find a reasonable deal on a used Rollei P66S Medium Format slide projector. This is the first time I've actually owned one of these - all previous experience has been with borrowed or rented machines.
It seems to work great, but most of my MF slides are unmounted.
I've trolled though the usual sites (B & H, Calumet and Adorama) to get an idea about what is available for mounting my own 6x6 and 6x4.5 slides, as well as the associated costs.
Does anyone here do much of this, and do you have any recommendations as to brands, types of mounts and sources to purchase them from?
I note both glassless and anti-newton glass versions. I generally prefer glassless, because of weight and cost issues, and because that leads to variety in the shape and size of the dust that gets projected :rolleyes: .
I expect that I am most likely limited to USA or (preferably) Canada for sellers - shipping from Europe would most likely be too expensive - but I am willing to look there if it makes sense.
I would be willing to consider a bit of a bulk purchase, if the price makes sense.
Does anyone here have any they don't want, and would like to sell?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Matt
