My reason to prefer slides over negatives for my silver-based photography back in the time was the size and vibrance of a projection compared with the small size, environmental impact, and relatively less vibrant sight of a printed negative. Nothing to do with stitching. A lot to do with available wall space. And with money too - I'd be bankrupt had I printed my selected slide show on Ilfochrome. I first came to slides when I got introduced to underwater photography. Then I used one roll of slides on land and was immediately sold. Yuv
