Alex Birrell Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 Hello, I am currently considering buying an Arri BL4 body without magazines. I have seen an earlier post on here that says Arri bl3 magazines are compatible but other sources online contradict that. Does anyone know for sure if I can use bl3 mags on it or if its bl4 mags only? It's 4 perf by the way. It also comes with a ground glass but no eyepiece. Am I right in thinking that if I don't need an extension eyepiece, I only need to get an eyecup and it would be ready to go? Thanks in advance!

Premium Member Dom Jaeger Posted August 21, 2012 Premium Member Share Posted August 21, 2012 BL-3 mags are compatible with a BL-4 or 4s, it's BL-1 and 2 mags that aren't unless they've been modified. You will need an eyepiece, whether you use an an extension finder or not. I'd recommend getting a camera that is complete, if it's missing the eyepiece who knows what else is missing.
