Looks like you win. Thanks again for the info. With the exception of the mag bumping the operator's face, the Arri-S is a great camera. I guess I'll leave it stock. BTW, anyone know where to find a 10mm prime, Arri-mount? Some students broke mine. Perhaps I can trade. I have tons of parts and odds and ends. Much of it CP-related parts. Some of it pretty ancient.

Thanks for the info. It's not too late to halt what I'm doing, I just removed the 8 small screws, which I can put back easily enough. I only know of Ultra-16 what I've read on the internet. I'll look into it some more. I'm curious as to what your opinion is of Super-16. I wanted to go in that direction but it's expensive and some of my lenses I understand aren't capable of the conversion. Thanks again! Helmut

Hi there, Can anybody tell me how to remove the film gate to my Arri-S? I have the 8 tiny screws off but don't know what more I need to do. I am trying to convert to Ultra-16: http://marylandfilms.com/16mm-super16-ultra16-compared.html http://marylandfilms.com/2007/04/film/ultr...g-to-bono-labs/ http://konvas.org/pipermail/cinema_konvas....ust/002410.html Thanks in advance for your help, Helmut www.FuseBoxFilms.com
