He is converting my Arriflex 2C to 2perf and PL mount at the moment. He's a bit of a camera wizard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Dom Jaeger Posted July 10, 2022 Premium Member Share Posted July 10, 2022 I love the Kinamo, wrote a post about it way back: Unfortunately many of the links are broken now, including all the photos I took of the mechanism inside while I overhauled it. Here’s a link to the wonderful little film Joris Ivens shot with one back in 1929, which I always think is a great example of what you can do with motion pictures with the most basic of tools: I love that Daniil has made a modern version, hope it gets past prototype. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Simon Wyss Posted July 10, 2022 Premium Member Share Posted July 10, 2022 Mr. Nevskii is not right with the Sept by FACT-Debrie. That is a true cinematic camera. It even has a pair of register pins in the same position as a Mitchell has. The Sept has a conical two-blades shutter and a lens bayonet. It takes five meters of film, enough for a 15 seconds shot.

Even Super 8 at 24fps gives you over two minutes! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
