Robert looks set to request Bill Parsons (Elmo projector specialist) convert his own GS-1200 to the HTI lamp as he will be doing shows at the Picture House chain of cinemas using Super 8 on occasion. The lunchtime 'daylight' demonstration of our own machine which still produced a viewable image from the (approximately) 70ft throw was fairly convincing!
