212 PREPARATION OF LANTERN SLIDES [Cn. VIII Projecting, Deschanel's Physics, etc., and fig. 141, 190, 211, 214. There is one serious drawback to such lantern slides. The background being nearly opaque stops the light and other radiant energy from the lamp, and the great heat developed is liable to crack the slides (see ยง 18, 845). FIG. 1 19. FOLMER & SCHWING'S TILTING CAMERA AND ADJUSTABLE BACK. (From the Catalogue of Folmer & Sch-wing. Cut loaned by the Eastman Kodak Co.). A Tilting camera for making lantern slides or other transparencies with an objective, or for photographing objects in a horizontal or inclined position. B Adjustable back for the tilting camera. The adjustments are to the right or left, up or down and enable one to center accurately any desired part of the negative or other object to be photographed. The rotary motion of the back enables one to get the lines on the negative or object exactly parallel with the edge of the lantern slide.
