The Eumig S910 dose not have a front sprocket, instead the film is pulled off the supply spool by the projectors claw which may put unnecessary strain on the films sprockets. From what I’ve seen it can also cause problems with threading.

Apart from not having a front sprocket Eumig S910 sounds like quite a good projector.

Film making did a test on the Eumig S 910 which is available here.
