Hi Olafo,

Then a thing I always wondered about: why is it that in the USA the

the ones with straight trays?!?

One of those ineffable differences between Europeans and Americans. You don't want to go there. ;-)

I suspect Kodak loved the carrousel because it created the need for all those consumables. For a number of years I would "organize" all my slides in trays. I have a drawer full of boxes of full carrousel trays. When I started shooting more seriously, I determined that it was an absurd waste to store slides in this way.

Of course now I have little green boxes sitting around in piles all over the house.
