View Full Version : Is the Graflarger strong enough to be a slide projector?
Silly ponderings.....
Is the Graflarger a strong enough light to be a slide projector?

Vick
It's kinda sickly colored. It's bright but not slide projector bright.

No, not really. When you open the darkroom door the image more or less disappears, so unless you view in total darkness and sit quite close I don't think it would work very well. You could view slides in the darkroom on your easel, or, I think you could make a projector pretty easily with a 500 watt halogen, some frosted glass, and an appropriate lens.
I have also heard of people making masks and using an overhead projector.
Halogen lamps run very hot.
I'd worry that the heat would damage the camera.

No, and the light is too green.
