Re: Kodak slide projectors to be discontinued

**"Doreen Howard" g*@charter.net**

It is sad to see the slide projector go.  We discussed this indirectly at
the GWA symposium in Chicago at a Power Point and Digital Camera workshops.
Photographers were polled about using digital instead of 35mm SLR or large
format cameras.  The concensus was that the stock photographers (Saxon Holt
said this if I remember correctly) felt that they probably would be forced
to digital eventually, but all said transparencies had better resolution.
The same was said about the slide projector versus a digital image projected
with Power Point.  The sharpness and the "oh, wow" factors were not there.

As a garden writer who also does many slide presentations at shows and
before paying audiences, I feel that the slide projector gives my audiences
a better view.  The digital image lacks clearness, size in many cases and
saturation of color.  I guess I'm going to have to stock up on projector
bulbs and buy an extra projector!
