Re: kaleidoscope projection

Hi,
In case it helps, I do have my own modern projection Kaleidoscope system that does work well, without the obvious light loss seen in some segments from many Victorian systems.

I do not have a video of it in action, but could probably shoot a new one if necessary.
Good luck in your searches- may I ask what is the purpose?

Kind regards,
David Burder, London.
