You are right on all accounts.  Great, so to fill the screen in the best manner
would be to shoot landscape in any case and panoramic if you can!  Blowing the
height to 11 will give a width of 14.6 feet using a 6 x 4.5 slide.  By the way,
both 6x6 and 6x4.5 are sold here for 19.$ Canadian a box or about 12. $ US.
