An update to my question above. Does Benoist Berthiot Super_Cinestar & Benoist Berthiot Neo_Cinestar produce the same quality on screen? I have also heard comments that older Benoist Berhtiot can reproduce a superior image on Black/white 35mm prints. What are your views on the topic? I am of course talking about Berthiot lenses in very good condition in these cases. Not damaged junk!

Hello dear friends, Can someone help with feedback on my question above? Danke!

Well, they have not been so active answering e-mails... Perhaps they are on a "Corona-break" at their office?

Thank you. I can google also. I was thinking of getting in touch with someone personally which works there...

Thank you all for your contributions! I am still looking for a VERONESE SX2500 and possibly a SX1600 as a second option. Will offer generously for a projector in really good condition.

Hello technicians and film enthusiasts, Has anyone here first hand experience of the VERONESE SX1600 & SX2500 portable projector? I am looking for photos of the SX1600 and also a manual if someone has a PDF of SX1600? Is this machine quiet or lound? Does it disturb an open space when used in the same room as the audience? Any input would be appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Thank you for your input Simon.

Hello dear friends and lovers of analogue film projection. I recently did a projection test between a couple of lenses. Lens No.1 ) Benoist Berthiot Super_Cinestar f=65mm Lens No.2) Benoist Berthiot Cinestar 70 f=85mm Lens No.3 Benoist Berthiot Neo_Cinestar f=65mm They looked very nice on screen with clear focus and quite beautiful colour rendition. Is there anyone which can help me with information about these lenses? What is the difference between Cinestar, Super_Cinstar and Neo_Cinestar? Are these former premium lenses? They seem to be of high quality. Any help appreciated. Kind regards.
