    I'm wanting to buy a vintage 16mm projector but can't find the right one for me. I want one that displays a big picture so I can have a nice old movie night with my family. Which projectors have a large display. Thanks in advance!

    Welcome!
    How big a screen do you want? What's your budget including shipping?

    The display area is generally controlled by the distance from the screen. Any of the former classroom types, which usually sell fairly cheap, should be adequate. The bulb expense may be the greatest concern.

    My budget would be around $300. I would like a screen about the size of a large flatscreen tv. I'm located in north Texas

    I heard a Kodak Paegant is a good projector with a nice screen size. I'm fairly new to projectors but would different lenses create different displays? Meaning size.

    I wouldn't know which model to get and the differences either.
