The
booth was, as usually, quite dim, and I used very slow (1/8-1/2s) shutter
speed.
17 July 2004
Meopta Prerov
as. in Czech Republick made 35/70mm projectors, type UM 70/35 and click
"35mm projectors".
I have seen an installation in Hotel Thermal, Karlovy Vary spa town, year
was (maybe) 1998. Booth was quite impressive: two UM 70/35's and two
MEO-5's. All films were shown with MEO-5's, probably because they were
equipped with xenon lamps. I have a picture from the projector somewhere,
but the picture on Meoptas site is far better than mine.
I also scanned a page from "Fotoja filmitecnika entsyklopeedia", a book
originally published in russian (1981) and then translated in Estonian
(1988).
In the table "kaarlamp" means carbon arc and "paikne" permanent. First
projector is translitterated as "KP-50", 2. "KP-30V" and so on.
"Valgusallikas" = light source and KPK-15 has some russian xenon, type
DKsR-5000. I have no further information about Russian xenon bulbs, sorry.
In Tallin was an installation in Kosmos-cinema, now owned by Finnish leading
theatre chain Finnkino still in early 90's, with more than 2 Soviet-Russian
projectors. I cannot remember the type of projectors, but they certainly
were 70mm. Later I heard that, due the problems of xenon lamp supply,
projectors replaced by single Victoria 5 with platter. Quite sad...
Thank you for your nice 70mm site!
best regards,
Markku E. Eriksson
