Joseph,
The Pradovit does not seem noisy in my living room, but I have not done a
direct comparison between it and my Kodak 4600. It will not accept the Carousel
trays. It uses the straight ("European") trays with 36 or 50 slides, and also
there is a LKM straight tray which takes 80 slides up to 2mm thick. That is the
one I use, as all my slides are in thin plastic mounts. There is also a round
Leica tray which takes 120 slides, but it mounts vertically on the projector, a
la Sawyer.
