6x6 cm slides
offer a dynamic color image that is countless times brighter
and clearer than a mere 35mm slide. Hasselblad, Rollei, and other
companies make slide projectors for this larger format.
When we take photographs of M aya art, we take one original for the archive (for dead storage so to speak) and an extra original to use as a projection slide.
Gepe is not only the leader
in glass mounts for 6x6 transparencies, they are really the only
manufacturer that is available from all the major photo catalog
stores.
Since we are rather cheap, we store the slides back in the original boxes.
One source of general negative storage media is Nast Industries, (904) 622-2630
Museums, photography departments, and larger archives tend to go to Light Impressions, 1 800 828-6216.
The larger format
of slide offered by Hasselblad format means that the slide lectures
will be noticeably superior to anything possible with 35mm. Audiences
really appreciate the improvement.
