A couple of years ago I bought a Rollei projector for about $65, and it has
given me good service ever since. This is a European-standard model, with
straight trays that hold 36 or 50 slides. It does not have any of the bells
and whistles that some Kodaks do, but it does have (sometimes erratic) auto
focusing. It's been quite adequate for casual travel slides. In fact I was
so pleased with it that I recommended it to my sister, who bought a similar
model without the Autofocus, which actually turns out to be better. I believe
the prices were so low because Rollei America went out of business, but I
have been able to buy Sylvania replacement bulbs; many NYC stores carry the
trays and other accessories. As a simple, cheap projector, I think this is
a pretty good buy. The model number is P350.
