For an artproject I would like to project 8mm film magnified on a piece of glass a few inches away.
Basically an analog micro filmprojector.
The setup I have thusfar is a lend-ended E10 bulb that lights the 8mm film. This does project a very small image
on the glass.
But this image needs to be enlarged. I've been trying several lenses I have laying around in my studio,
but no luck. I've been looking at lenses online, but have no clue what to specifically look for, I am pretty sure
there is math involved with focal distances and such. Do I need a double convex lens, or plano or any other type?
I am a visual artist and have no experience whatsoever with electronics, and math was my worse subject at school.
As usual I am way over my head with this project...
Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!
