3-Perf Arri 35-III with nice extras!

[Duncan OBryan]

Only dreaming of selling this because I recently got a 3-perf Moviecam Compact. Consolidating my equipment (Helium -> Komodo and sadly letting go of this beauty). 

Camera has been a workhorse and of course makes beautiful pictures. I have shot a handful of commercial and narrative projects on it with great results, and being one fo the few 12v cameras out there has it's perks! This is the most current iteration of the 35-3, with the bolted in PL mount and washboard gate, and the mad scientists at either Clairmont or Panavision added that glorious 3-perforation movement. (body and aks are covered in Panavision engravings...) 

The awesome techs at Koerner Camera Systems function checked it and gave it the thumbs up. At the same time the mags were all tested and had their clutch tension reset. I have personally run it between 4 and 48fps and it runs as sweet as can be.

I have added some nice upgrades since purchase. It's got a Jurgen's handheld video tap door and comes with both the Arri standard and Kish wide angle eyepieces. I also bought three 400' Arrimags, which are a huge quality of life upgrade. It still comes with the original mags. 

 

Would like to get $8000 but open to offers.

Price adjust: $7250 - all reasonable offers considered.

3-perf doesn't come around every day. 4 perf 35-3 packages seem to be going for $6-8k,  don't include Arrimags!

Cant buy it but beautiful camera. Standing the test of time

Bump, haven’t been actively trying to sell this over the summer, but alas it does still need a home.

Hi Duncan,

I’m interested to buy. Is it still available?

[Raaf Sundquist]

Forgive the off topic question...but is that The Racetrack in Death Valley? ?

Beautiful camera in a beautiful place.

Responded to your DM, Duncan.

Hi Duncan,

I'm thinking about buying a 35iii and in your post I see you are running it of a vmount battery. So I was wondering if it's that simple of just buying a xlr to dtap cable or did you get a power converter or something? because the camera is 12V I believe right?

What kind of cable is it?

[Borja Llorens]

Hey Joek, 

I used to have an Arri III 4 perf, and that's the method I mainly used,

straight XLR to Dtap cable, no power converter, It worked for me for most of the projects I used it with. It's recommended using a Crystal Sync, to make it safer though.

 

Cheers
