Vintage Copal Daylight Screen – 1970s Foldable Tabletop Viewer for Slides & Super 8 Film
A practical and clever vintage accessory from the 1970s: the original Copal Daylight Screen. This compact, foldable device allows you to view projected slides or Super 8 / Single 8 films in a normally lit room — no need to darken the space.
How it works:
Place the opened screen on a table opposite your slide or film projector. Project the image into the built-in mirror at the base. The mirror reflects the light upward onto the rear of the matte viewing screen, producing a clear, bright image visible from the front even in daylight or ambient room light.
A handy, completely power-free tool for quick checking of slides or film footage, editing, or informal viewing sessions.
