Hi Giorgio,

if your Angi is a c-mount lens, just remove the Aaton mount from your ACL.

There will be an original c-mount on your camera body, no adapter needed.

Good luck,

Volker

Hi Carl,

before buying new stuff, why don't you just start with your Angenieux 9,5-57mm, get used to it,

and then find out your needs beyond this lens. I use my Nikkor lenses for telephoto only, too limited on the wide side.

Have fun,

Volker

Got it now?

Volker

1.) ACL 2, R16, latest model, heavy duty motor 8-75 f/s and fully orientable Angenieux finder.

1 Cameflex and 1 Arri bayonet mount, 2 batteries, cable, twin charger, release handle, 3 mags., 200ft. or 400ft. by choice.

Everything you need, ready to shoot. Asked price 700 Euro.

I would add some 100 and 200ft. daylight spools and a changing bag as well.

2.) Angenieux Zoom 1,6-2,2 / 9,5-57mm, Arri B mount, very clean, with sun shade.

Asked price for the whole set ACL 2 with Ang. lens 1200 Euro.

Shipping to the US by DHL would be 48 Euro, Premium service 64 Euro.

The ACL1,5 S16 set with Ang. lens should go for 1400 Euro, upgraded with multiduty motor and fully orientable finder (same as ACL2) 1600 Euro, but it has to be checked before. If I'm not absolutely shure that everything is OK, I would not give it away.

Hi Carl,

look up your emails, it's all there.

Though I use my ACL exclusively with 200ft. mags, traveling in Asia I carry my raw footage in 400ft. cans originally Kodak sealed. Never had any problems having them manually checked, NO X-RAY (except once in Cambodia).

Never had a darkroom, so I spooled down in the Arri mag.

Cheers,

Volker

"I did find a new PL to C-mount adapter at B&H, and considering the quality of the PL lenses we have I think it is a steal".

A PL to C-mount adapter seems to be not the best option. A zoom lens might be a heavy burdon for C-mount.

You should try to find a PL to ACL adapter, unfortunately not a bargain.

But most ACL will come with Arri B adapter, and there are hundreds of nice lenses on the market.

Spooling down from 400ft. can easily be done without a darkroom.

I take an old Mag.from Arri 16S, load it with the 400ft. roll and an empty cor in the changing bag, then take it out, connect it with a 12 V battery and spool down, controlling the meter counter. Admittedly, the counter is not very precise, but with some routine you will get the point. Yes, the first portion has to be rolled twice, the second is just fine.

I have never experienced electrostatic issues..

Good luck,

Volker

Nothing against Kodak, as long as they will feed us. Still keeping some 7285 anf Ektachromes for stills in my freezer.

"The colon followed by the close parenthesis is kind of a stubborn, sarcastic fake smile the way I use and have seen it used".

Dear Ari,

Sorry, nothing but a smiling reminder, that we European should stay together with the benefit of our free market.

Apologize, if this post can be misinterpreted as sarcasm. No more political statements.

My offer does not mean, that I quit film making. I keep my ACL and another Bolex,

love using them and will continue.

My solidarity,

Volker

Some additional information for S-16 users

I've used this lens with my S-16 ACL with excellent results, but a few restrictions.

From infinity to approx 5 meters the entire Zoom range is usable without severe vignetting.

Between approx. 12 to 25 mm more or less vignetting at closer distances.

No vignetting with 10mm in macro function, which works also with longer distances.

Thanks,

Volker
