Burkphoto, you're going to want to see my youtube channel - "AV Archaeology"... https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCdGRNxsrsI-efMFSjFDmzvg/videos

Here's a current picture of my garage.

Great photos! E2 projectors - I am not a fan. Had to pull the proj out of the rack to change a bulb. I love the double-stacked tables as a projection tower. We used to put one row of tables behind that, as a walkway. And lots of tape...

I never made it to one of those AMI shows. Oh well... Anyway, along with all the slides I brought home this week, I was given a stack of hardware, including 4 chief stackers with E3s and Doves. Now I could theoretically run a 27 projector show... I think there's one lurking in those boxes. I'm gonna need a bigger power drop.

Can we take this conversation off the forum? You can write me via the link on my webpage. I have questions about Clearlight...

The shows and equipment are long gone. I have the F3 and a few photos of my facility, but the business was sold twice since 1996.

We used a ClearLight Superstar system. It was amazing.


Oh well. I was a slide programmer back in the day, and in recent years have been on a mission to find and restore great examples of the medium. Multi-image was largely unknown by the public even in it's heyday, and now - forget it. I have been able to assemble my multi-image rig thanks to donations by a couple of rental houses that "just wanted it out of the warehouse"!

Very recently I was given a cache of shows, ranging from 9-27 projectors. I have JUST gotten them home. Time to bake the tapes and xfer them to digital before they disintegrate!

I have been pondering creating new content for multi image shows; I think that the F3 with the MM back is the only solution out there, short of finding a Forox or Marren Carroll (sp). I tried digital-to-35mm services; unfortunately none of them use pin-registered cameras.

Best,

Weren't those the days! I just came across my F2 with the same mods from MM. We made many thousands of slides with that camera i got a Marron Carrel 1400 with the full-size column almost 10' tall. The MC is history but I still have the motorized 12 field compound table.

What do I do with all the boxes of carousel trays holding the shows we made? 15 Kodak projectors, 6 AVL Doves and 5 Chief stands are long gone. So is the TEAC 3440 and Kaypro computer running Genesis.


What do you you do with those multi image shows you still have? Contact me! I have a 15 projector AVL based rig in my garage.
