[Frameworks] 16mm graflex / singer / telex projectors

Hey folk, Recently had a nice experience projecting with one of these (the manual load ones), and I'm considering getting one and having it be my primary instead of the pageant. Seems to be easier to find zoom lenses for them, and they seem pretty smooth, adjustable pressure gate, and some ha

I like these machines a lot, built like tanks, easy to clean and take apart, really great with damaged film, fast loading and ideal for short loops (which I use them for) The weight and availability of bulbs, as you mention, are the main issues for me - that and they look like something pulled out

Hey Gang, I'm trying to work up a list of films that are direct remakes (like What Farocki Taught), or riffs/covers (Ceibas: Epilogue - The Well of Representation), or, hell, just films that are mainly sourced with recognizable images (Alone. Life Wastes Andy Hardy & Outer Space). Thoughts? Best
