Phil Rirsch Posted March 15, 2022 Share Posted March 15, 2022 Hey guys, I recently found a video bar for an Arriflex 16sr, I am just not 100% sure if it fits on the sr1. Does any of you have any experience with that and can help me before I’m buying? thanks in advance! https://www.willhaben.at/iad/kaufen-und-verkaufen/d/arri-arriflex-sr-video-ausspiegelung-cinegate-546668593/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Dom Jaeger Posted March 15, 2022 Premium Member Share Posted March 15, 2022 No that’s for an SR3 or SR2s with the upgraded front that takes a top mounted split where the handle goes. For an SR1 you need to replace the J viewfinder with a T bar viewfinder, like in this thread: https://cinematography.com/index.php?/forums/topic/72267-16mm-arri-sr2-video-tap/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member Dom Jaeger Posted March 15, 2022 Premium Member Share Posted March 15, 2022 Unscrew the top handle, there needs to be a prism underneath, or a blank, held by 4 screws. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So this is how it looks like under the top handle.. it’s not fitting right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Rirsch Posted March 25, 2022 Author Share Posted March 25, 2022 I just unscrewed the remaining four but either it’s stuck or the left won’t come off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Dom Jaeger Posted March 28, 2022 Premium Member Share Posted March 28, 2022 No, there’s no video split prism there. Look at an SR3 manual online, it looks like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
