Hi Giorgio,

Are you talking about the eyepiece that is shown in this picture attached to an Arriflex 16M, that works for both Arriflex 16mm and 35mm cameras? If so I have one in very good condition.

Hello Tim, yes that one. Is the wide angle version or the BL one?

how much is your request? 
Thanks 

[Tim Carroll]

Hi Giorgio. Not sure I know the difference between the wide angle version or the BL one, could you clarify?

Best, -Tim

[Giorgio Taricco]

Uhmm.. really I’m not sure but seems that the wide angle version is originally  for the 16SR I-II  cameras for S16 shooting?  They can be used on 2c as well.

The eyepiece I have I think it referred to as the Wide Angle Eyepiece, it is the one that will fit the Arriflex 16SR and 16SR II, as well as the Arriflex 2C, Arriflex 3, and Arriflex 35BL. It is shown below.  Is that the one you are looking for?

Best, -Tim

[Giorgio Taricco]

Yes it’s what I’m looking for ?

[Giorgio Taricco]

BTW the one in the picture is originally for the BL35 I think not for the SR

I used in on a 16SR converted to Super 16, and a buddy of mine had the same eyepiece that he used on a 16SR II, and that 2C pictured above with the Jurgen's door.

I am open to offers on the eyepiece. It's in near mint condition.

Best, -Tim

Thank Tim but really I don’t know the value of such a item in these days, would be better to hear your request 

thanks

Hi Giorgio,

The eyepiece without the eyecup was $3550 when new, and the eyecup with internal iris was probably another $450, so about $4000 new. I bought this, which again is in near mint condition in 2010 for $1500 and used it only a handful of times. I could let it go for $1000, and whatever the cost of shipping would be to Torino Italy from Chicago, Illinois USA.

Best, -Tim
