Henry Gill Posted November 16, 2020 Share Posted November 16, 2020 Hi All, I'm looking to buy a sound blimp/barney for my Arriflex SR3 HS, as it's remarkably louder than my older SR2 - to the point it's unusable for quiet dialogue scenes. Could anyone recommend a place to buy blimps, or perhaps someone who would make a custom soundproof cover for the camera? Many thanks for any leads.

There might be something wrong with it since it should not run louder than the SR2. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henry Gill Posted November 16, 2020 Author Share Posted November 16, 2020 Hi Uli, All the SR3 HS cameras I've used have been this loud. It's likely louder for being a HighSpeed camera. Many thanks, Henry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck with finding a blimp/barney. Best, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marco hara Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 I am also looking to acquire/purchase a blimp/barney for my Arri SR3 HS. If anyone can help? I was a bit surprised how loud it is at 24FPS. many thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Satsuki Murashige Posted November 18, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted November 18, 2020 I would start with eBay or Visual Products. There are still a fair bit of ex-Clairmont Camera film camera accessories out there. I bought mag barneys for my Moviecam SL on eBay a few years ago, all ex-Clairmont stock.

Premium Member Uli Meyer Posted November 18, 2020 Premium Member Share Posted November 18, 2020 Pille Film in Germany have lots of SR spare parts for sale: http://www.used-filmequipment.com/products/list/id/130 Maybe worth inquiring if they know of a barney.
