Milo, I might be interested. Is it still available and could you tell me a little more information about the blimp or send pics. Email me at RRADFILMS@aol.com. Ryan

Does anyone have an extra Arri IIB/IIC power cord to spare? If not, any ideas where I can get one?? I need one asap. Any information is appreciated. The cord is a two pin female for the motor to an xlr for the battery. If you have a two pin to two pin, I might be able to rewire the two pin male to an xlr. If you can help - please email me at rradfilms@yahoo.com. I can send payment via paypal. Thanks - rradfilms

Hello everyone! Thanks for reading this. I am new to this forum and so far have found it very informative. If I can contribute to forum questions in any way, I definitely will. Last week I have acquired a mint Arri IIB camera. So far I have only shot 16mm - on 3 cameras - Arri S, Cp-16, and a Bolex. I just recently turned 21 and am trying to shoot and learn as much as possible. I am really looking forward to shooting 35. Here are my questions: 1) The Arri IIB I have has a variable speed motor. The motor has two "male" prongs for power. I believe it requires the power of a 16v battery. Does any one know of where I possibly might be able to find a battery and the cable to fit the motor? OR possibly does anyone have one for sale? I have even checked Ebay, but have had no luck so far... 2) Is there any way to change the ground glass on the Arri IIB door? If not, is it possible to change the glass on an Arri IIC door? I am looking for a IIC door regardless, since I have read that it will fit on a IIB body and I like the fact that the eye piece is not completely fixed. Does anyone know of where I might be able to find a IIC door or does anyone have one for sale? Again I have checked ebay, but unfortunately have not been able to find one. 3) Will an Arri IIB fit in a blimp as far as the motor is concerned or is there a conversion that needs to be made. I saw that I just missed an Arri II blimp on Ebay. I have read that Arri made two different blimps for the Arri II and cine-60 made one as well. Does anyone have any information as far as where I might be able to find a blimp, and or also have one for sale? Thanks much everyone for your time. Ryan
