Manufactured by Kodak in 1961, the Model 550R was Kodak's first carousel slide projector, adding a rotary tray fitting onto a 35mm slide projector. This allowed for motorised slide shows where photographs printed on slides were projected onto a wall or screen. The slides advanced automatically every few seconds, or could be controlled manually, to accompany a talk. While this was not the first of it's kind Kodak's design was more afordable and reliable than it's competitors resulting in it popularity as a product.
