Christian Schonberger Posted November 6, 2023 Share Posted November 6, 2023 Hi all, Well I hope this hasn't been asked before. If so, I apologize. Does anyone know what hand held camera Stanley Kubrick used for the handheld shots (moon monolith) in 2001? The two 65/70mm cameras I can see in Photos are an unblimped Mitchell 65 and a blimped Panavision (very likely based on the Mitchell, IMDB says: Mitchell BFC 65mm). The handheld scenes fit perfectly into the 65/70mm footage, so I find it hard to believe that it's a 35mm (Arri 35 II C?) since it would need a closely matching blow up for the original neg assembly. Any input appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christian Schonberger Posted November 6, 2023 Author Share Posted November 6, 2023 Thanks Mark, that explains the consistently clear image throughout the moon monolith sequence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
