If I use the high-capacity trays, it jams, on both plastic and cardboard slides. If I use the normal trays, it still occasionally jams on the first few or last few slots in the tray, with the result that I have to avoid those. I don't use the projector very often, and yet the autofocus simply stopped working a couple of months ago. Since it was still under warranty, I took it back to the shop and they sent it to Leica. It's been about two months, and it's not back yet. I hear good things about the curved-field Colorplan. The Hektor lens that comes with the P150 is a flat-field lens, and as a result does not produce a sharp image across the field if your slides are mounted in cardboard or plastic. On the other hand, I've heard other people say they really like the P150. Perhaps you would be one of those people.
