bell and howeel is how id go
the b&h brand is sturdy
if you want freeze frame check to see that the provided heat filter works .
use some academy leader instead of your valuable print .
Try ebay and tak up the configuration specs withthhe seller they should answer your questions
also if you get one of the old bell and howell military models it has plenty of features but it is going the be expensive to ship !!
get that on local to where ever you are
bauer is good but i see problems with parts bell and howell still has good after market parts and service infrastructure in the us of a
good luck
Bruce

My advice is that you shouldn't have to pay much for a used 16mm projector. I've been offered numerous free projectors because of all the places clearing them out. Look in your area and ask around and I'd bet you could snag an old tank like the Bell&Howell.
