  2. ^ The service manual quotes the screen area as 24.5 square feet (2.28 m2) and the brightness "on-axis" as around 20 foot-lamberts. If we assume that the gain of the curved Kodak aluminium screen is around 10. This gives us a number of 49 lumens.

  5. ^ While later material credited the projector with an on-axis brightness of more than 30 foot lamberts, early Brocheres still give it as 20. The increase is probably due to adoption of newer higher gain Kodak "Ektalite" screens.
