Subj: Transparencies Willoughby from U.K. requested a month ago: Is there a device which can be attached to an Apple Mac which can be used to produce 35mm transparencies for sebsequent projection? Can anyone recommend such a system? > There are several units available in the U.S. > The three I am most familiar with all list for around $6000 in U.S. > These units attach to SCSI port on Mac and give professional quality slides with selectable resolution from 500-8000 lines and full color (either 8 color or up to 16 million...) > MIRUS slide maker, Polaroid Bravo computer slide-maker, and Montage FR1 film recorder would all fulfill your requirements. > Montage FR1: Presentation Technologies 743 N. Pastoria Ave. Sunnyvale, CA 94086 , USA [CA=california] telephone: 800-345-7050 or 408-749-1959 > Polaroid Bravo: Polaroid (U.K.) Ltd Ashley Road St. Albans Hertfordshire AL 1 5PR Telephone: St.Albans (0727)59191 Freefone 2122 Polaroid (U.S.A.) Corporation P.O.

I just happen to have a list of international Polaroid offices handy. > Hope this helps. > Ken Peters (peters@mayo.edu)
