Amateur Photographer & Cinematographer (1935)

The AMATEUR PHOTOGRAPHER ta 6 CINEMATOGRAPHER a “The Amateur Photographer” NNUAL November 20th, 1935 LANTERN-SLIDE COMPETITION THE entries in this year’s competition exceeded in quantity those in similar competitions for any previous year. The quality of the slides was also of a higher standard throughout, and really poor slides were conspicuous by their absence. Class I (Landscape) was again easily the largest, but was run close by Class II (Portraits and Figures). The Colour Slides were not so good, and although including all the latest processes they were uneven in merit. The fact that in no instance were there any slides wrongly spotted constitutes a record. The judging of several thousands of slides, needless to say, was an arduous task ; every slide was, however, put through the lantern and projected on the screen at least twice, while before a decision regarding the winners was arrived at many were projected five or six times. The collection of prize slides, with additional slides purchased from the entries, has already started on its long tour round the societies. Every date has been booked until May, 1936.
