jimjimbo Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 (edited) Do you have a working Kodak Carousel slide projector that you are not using? The older type that uses the round trays (I don't know if there are specific models that require specific trays....) Somehow in the midst of all of my moves in the last 20 years or so, the projector disappeared, but my slides survived (a good thing). Please let me know. Thanks. Jim Edit: Just looked at the slide trays, and they are the Kodak Carousel Transvue 80, and Transvue 140 round trays.

Mallette Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Yep, but mine is in storage somewhere until sometime in the new year. I've scanned most of my slides. They aren't that hard to come by, though. Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JJkizak Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 Well you can do what I did. Scan them into your computer at 1200 dpi, crop, color correct and remove all the dings and fingerprints, then put them in your video editing soft ware and set up about a ten second view for each then burn it to DVD disc. Then I gave away my projector and the slides. JJK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coytee Posted July 25, 2016 Share Posted July 25, 2016 I have a carousel or two. I also bought a scanner. Still have it. Am 80/90% done Made TIFF copies and JPEG copies. Put onto disks and shared with family. Scanning was a project! (took some time) If however, you'd like the carousel I have....it's one of the round ones. I might also have one of the square ones but, I think I got rid of those. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MookieStl Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Not sure if they are interchangeable or not. But I have a gaf projector. The trays are marked "Sawyer's Rototray". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nivroc Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 I do. It was my Dad's - has the case, a 140-slide carousel & 25' remote. I'll post pics in a minute, if you're still interested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nivroc Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 (edited) Posting pics anyway Edit: Just checked it out & it still works. I don't think it's been used since 1981. Edited July 26, 2016 by nivroc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryC Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 Not sure if they are interchangeable or not. But I have a gaf projector. The trays are marked "Sawyer's Rototray". I'm pretty sure that Sawyer's is not compatible with Kodak's. Kodak uses a gravity-feed vertical drop, whereas I believe Sawyers moves the slides horizontally into the light beam. It's a bear to transfer a large number of slides from one to the other, IIRC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karsoncookie Posted July 26, 2016 Share Posted July 26, 2016 I remember when those were the Bee's Knees. In 1972 our high school (well to do suburb of Mpls.) got a "Computer" All the "nerds" would spend time on it making little rolls of punched paper tape. Hope they didn't have any "chad" problems. Back in the day when a simple basic pocket calculator was like I recall $400. TI i recall, all the smart guys had HP with somekinda "reverse polish notation" system or something. Remember? Now, for years, the basic ones are one buck at the dollar store. Wow. How time flies. Lars Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
