A 36x24mm slide show is far superior to anything digitally projected But If
you ask somebody 20 years of age they've never seen a slide projector nor
36x24mm slide show.
And if you ask somebody 40 years of age they've never seen a 60x60mm slide
show. Or any other age. I've only seen one once. By Ernst Wildi. Who I
spoke with at length.
