If the size of the screen is the same and the size of the
original is much larger, than the required magnification
is far less.  But you knew that....  ;-)

I had a similar reaction when I first heard about the
plans for MF projection.  I asked "can the advantages
of MF over 35mm be seen in projection?"  I think the
reply was something along the lines of "You've never
*seen* MF projected, have you?"

I was assured that projected MF images are significantly
better than projected 35mm images, and that you have to
see it for yourself to believe it.

Anyone with first hand experience to share?
