A small projector lessAhan six Inches tall can project j ^ screen pictures several feet wide. H ERE'S an Interesting Idea for presenting pictures -- a home picture show, with your pwn shots . projected on a screen in large site, lo that the whole family or a group »f friends can enjoy them together. Home movie makers, of course, five always used this method; but ioday it is also becoming popular for 'still" shots, now that so many camera fans are using the full-color films made for miniature cameras. When you take miniature-camera shots on a roll of modern full-color film, it is returned to you as a group »f individual full-color transparenties-- ready for viewing directly, or for projection on a home screen. The scene above shows how these shots are projected. The only difference is that this illustration is printed in black-and-white, while the actual screen pictures are in full color--like the original subject - Several compact, inexpensive projectors for these full-color shots are now on the market. A color transparency is simply Inserted in the projector... the lamp is switched on ... and you get a screen picture up to several feet across! Naturally, this dramatic size adds to any shot, and helps bring out the fullest beauty of the colon. During a receipt New York World*! Fair visit, I saw hundreds of these color transparencies projected at the photography building--on a screen nearly four tinjes as tall as a man! That display is truly spectacular. Of course, you can't show color shota on that scale with a home projector. But you can take close-ups of your child, or friends, or the flowers in your garden -- and present them "larger than life" on a screen in your own. living-room, all in exquisite glowing color! Which, youll admit, is quite something. As for taking color shots--it's as easy as taking snapshots in blackand- white. You load the film in a suitable miniature camera, set the lens and shutter according to the exposure instructions, and shoot And --as long as you follow instructions-- you're sure of correctly-exposed color transparencies. Sooner or later, every real camera fan will be shooting full-color film as well as black-and-white ... and will have a projector for showing his color transparencies. It's a really modern way to enjoy pictures . . . and it's growing in popularity every day. Once you try it, youll see why. John ran Guilder Eyes Examined A. & Nye BMg. Kr. Paul A.
