Summary: Reviewer "michaeldavidsj" is mistaken about the remote control.
Comment: Reviewer "michaeldavidsj" complains that he was expecting a more sophisticated remote control for this projector. "michaeldavidsj" would prefer a wireless remote (like that used for TV) rather than the standard hard-wired Kodak remote that is connected to the projector through an electrical cable terminating with a plug that must be plugged into the projector.

IF "michaeldavidsj" had the wireless remote that he wants, he would have to divert his eyes from the picture on the screen, so that he could turn his body and aim the remote at it's receiver on the slide projector (in the dark) - every time he wanted to change to another slide. What a monumental distraction and inconvenience this would be for the projectionist when trying to enjoy a slide show at home! Fortunately, this procedure is not necessary with the standard hard-wired Kodak remote.

Aiming a wireless remote for slide projection at home is different than for viewing TV. With TV, the viewer faces both the TV screen AND the receiver for the wireless remote on the TV. With slide projection in a typical room at home the projectionist/viewer faces the screen but almost never faces the receiver for the wireless remote on the projector, because the projectionist is viewing pictures on the screen and is often located to one side of the projector (except when sitting right behind the projector).

A wireless remote is useful for a speaker/projectionist in a large room (such as an auditorium) when making a presentation to an audience, because in this case the speaker/projectionist faces the receiver for the remote on the projector while facing the audience. I would never purchase a wireless projector remote for any application other than such a presentation.

Summary: deceptive editor review
Comment: The editor says that one can be seated while using the remote. While this is true, the reviewer doesn't note the fact that the remote has to be attached to the slide projector itself. I was expecting a little more sophisication, such as when one uses a remote to change channels on a television.

Also, the projector does not come with a lens, nor is there a cover for the projector itself. If one considers buying this product, keep in mind that one will have to get various accessories, such as a lens, and a decent covering case, and perhaps a more sophisicated remote -- one that is not necessarily attached to the projector.



Editorial Reviews:

The Kodak Carousel 4600 projector gives you sharp, bright images and quiet, dependable operation. It accepts 2-by-2-inch slides in either 80- or 140- slide trays. Its safety thermal fuses protect the projector from overheating while the slide prewarmer prevents the slides from "popping." When no slide is being projected, the dark screen shutter latch automatically masks the light. The remote control lets you scan forward and in reverse without having to leave your seat. The carousel tray allows you to load slides quickly and gives you access to all slides at all times. You can adjust the projection level up to 16 degrees with the rear leveling foot. The projector comes with a full one-year warranty.
