Thanks Bruce - yes, as soon as I started projecting Kchromes, I encountered this 
problem, so I went back to the shop to ask how I could get them sharp edge-to-edge on 
screen..  I ended up buying one of those curved field lenses (I think it's a Leitz?) 
to suit my Rollei projector, and it gives stunning images.

If you have only ever viewed your slides on a mediocre projector/lens, you are 
definitely missing an experience..  But of course you also quickly find out how 
critical camera steadiness and lens quality are, as per Rob's comments.
