Current Models

E Series

The characteristic button panel of E-series Kinoton projectors.

The original E Series models have been replaced by "Premiere" models that are identical to their original E Series equivalents except for having a slightly faster pulldown rate (8 milliseconds rather than the 11 milliseconds of the original models).

Kinoton Lens Holders

Kinoton and Norelco projectors use a cumbersome lens holder. Rather than slide in or out of a collar like a Simplex or Century, the Kinoton lens holder snaps on via a spring which is engaged with a pin and your thumb and index finger (careful not to pinch yourself!). More modern Kinoton lens holders have an enlarged collar diameter which will hold standard simplex or century lens holders making for much easier lens swaps.
