Hello!

Thank you to those who sent messages. The camera package has SOLD and is no longer available.

Eclair NPR s/n 3308 converted to super 16 by Les Bosher 

Items included: 

• Aaton Alcan motor

• Perfectone Compact motor

• Angenieux viewfinder x2 (s/n 972 and s/n 709), each with Arriflex rubber eyecup 

• 4x magazines 400-ft, with 3x rubber magazine throat covers 

• Original Eclair magazine case, holds 2x magazines

• Les Bosher matte box rods and attachment

In the last 15 years, I have owned four NPR cameras. This NPR is the latest serial number I have seen, and the nicest Eclair of the bunch. It was purchased with a Perfectone Compact, later adding the Alcan and second Angenieux viewfinder and a couple of additional magazines (bring the total magazine count to four). In 2014, the camera’s CA-1 lens port and camera gate was converted to Super 16 by Les Bosher. The C mount lens port remains centered for standard 16mm, allowing the camera to be used for shooting both regular 16mm (1.33) and super 16 (1.66). Bosher added a PL mount with port cap, and rods and attachment for using a matte box (matte box not included). Camera has been well cared for and routinely operated to keep oil distributed throughout the mechanism. 12V camera battery is NOT included (Bescor or other brands cost $50-100).   

$3250 + shipping cost

Besides Abel NY, what other companies in the USA are still doing Aaton XTRprod service?

 

I would like to find people doing specifically XTRprod service (not earlier XTR models or LTR), and folks that have done service

recently. If you have leads, feel free to mention places, but I'm mostly looking to hear from folks who have recent experience

with service for an XTRprod.

 

Also, if you've had recent experience with Abel NY, let me know how that went (in the forum or PM me).

 

 

Thanks,

Alain

Official word from Kodak (reposted from other web source):

 

"Yesterday, Kodak announced the discontinuance of its three Kodak Professional EKTACHROME and ELITE Chrome Films. This news does not affect our ability to supply 5285 and 7285 color reversal motion picture film products to our customers. We continue to provide these films in 35mm, 16mm and S8 stocks with the same great quality and product support you’ve come to expect from the Kodak brand."

In December 2009, 40 Frames launched 16mm Directory as a technical resource directory for supplies and services related to 16mm exhibition.

 

Each month, the directory is utilized by individuals from over 40 countries around the world, seeking information on projectors, supplies, distributors,

exhibitors, and looking for items to buy or sell through the 16mm Marketplace.

 

We ask organization and business sponsors as well as individual donors to lend support in helping to continue to make this resource available.

Please donate now.

Not certain if this made the rounds yet...

 

ORWO North America is now online and distributing ORWO black and white camera and lab stocks in 16mm and 35mm.

 

www.orwona.com

 

UN54 - 100 ASA

 

N74 - 400 ASA

 

ORWO offers an alternative to the discontinued Kodak 7231 and a faster than Double-X black and white N74. It's nice to have options,

and now we have three black and white negative films available in the USA - 100ASA, (UN54) 200ASA (7222) and 400ASA (N74).

 

 

--Alain

Very close to finishing a project I started years ago on 7231, and I'd like to finish on this stock.

 

Please let me know if you have any factory sealed, re-canned, short or long ends you are willing to part

with.... looking to purchase, trade or take donations.

 

I have some color stock to trade, as well as equipment.

 

 

Please let me know if you can help, contact - a@alainletourneau.com or +1 503 231 6548.
