[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 491634, member: 12496"] Welcome to the forum Lori. The only problem description is "crazy" and "not rainbow or blue/green". Some description of what the problem in fact is could only help. :) What do you see? If the problem is "color" (esp orange color), check camera white balance. If it is a slide projector and if pictures of this screen used to work, check the Exif in pictures that did work for the White Balance used then. I'd guess camera White Balance needs to be Incandescent for the projector lamp. If the camera WB is Daylight, we would expect orange pictures of Incandescent. If the camera mode is Auto, then White Balance is Auto WB, sometimes good, sometimes not. For reference, an ELH lamp for Kodak Carousel projector is 3350K. Nikon Incandescent WB is 3000K, and Daylight is 5200K. If it is not a slide projector.... if you are instead projecting a image from an image file on a computer, then don't do that... You don't need the camera for that... just use a copy of the original image file directly. [/QUOTE]
