FS: Super 16mm Krasnogorsk-3 w/Tobin Motor


Norbert Shieh

Recommended Posts

Up for sale is a Krasnogorsk-3 converted to Super 16mm with a Clive Tobin TXM-20 Motor. Ran only a few hundred feet of film with it after purchasing the camera from the previous owner who converted to S16 through Du-All Camera. I'm selling this camera to fund a few mark ii accessories. The K3 will be good for any beginning filmmakers or for use as a B-Unit camera on larger s16 shoots.

 

The camera body is in great condition. The loop formers, which have been known to cause trouble when loading, have been removed. Mechanically, the camera runs very well. Viewfinder is clean, with adjustment for the 16x9 frame. The lens is a Meteor 17-69mm f/1.9 Pentax mount and is in terrific condition. Vignettes at the wide end (until about 20-24mm) because of the S16 conversion. Also included is a rare Nikon Mount adapter for any Nikon F-Mount 35mm lenses.

 

The Tobin TXM-20 originally sold for $450 (+now discontinued!), and allowed you to shoot sync-sound and with HMI lighting without flicker. Crystal syncs at 12/15/24/30/48/60 FPS. The motor requires a 12volt 4pin XLR battery to work, which is not included in this auction. You can buy a good Bescor or NRG battery pack from B&H. I've included a link to the TXM-20 manual below.

 

Letting this camera go for $600, plus shipping.

 

Any questions feel free to ask.
