The Minox HP 24 projector was introduced in late 1970. It uses a 24 volt 150 watt halogen lamp, a double condenser and a 35mm Minogon f2.7 lens. It has an open magazine track and built in colling fan for the lamp and slides.

The control buttons on top of the projector are a cabled remote control. The back lifts up and it can be removed. The mains cable also coils up in this space and needs to be taken out to use. The front of the projector has a metal carrying handle. A  6 pin DIN socket allows a tape recorder to be attached and used to control slide change.

The standard HP24 is type 24303 and the autofocus version type 24304. The autofocus model uses a small motor controlled by two buttons on the remote. The first slide is manually set up and the remainder are automatically focused by the Leitz autofocus system.

A folding case of black plastic serves for carrying and storage. This was replaced by a simple dust cover.

Production creased in 1988, the last of the Minox slide projectors.
