Gentlemen,
I just got a 2C with HS gate with Cine motor whose electronics have apparently been overhauled: Upon removing the bottom plate, I discovered that part of the inner side had been milled out to receive apparently new TCS electronics. The "corrugated" belt attaching the motor to camera looked brand new.
Using a tachspeed gun we clocked the camera's crystal as dead on at speeds from 23.9 to 30fps.
Does anyone know about these Cine motor "conversions?
I have an email to Clive...
The camera is clean otherwise,
Scratch tests of all the mags at various speeds yielded pristine results.
The camera is a 14000s serial #. I'm pretty psyched
Steadiness registration test is next before warranty runs out.
Any thoughts on what I've got here
Thanks,
John
