Hi, Has anyone opened a Pentax spotmeter V? needed help to be able to sustain the mine, if anyone has pictures or know how or where you have screws which begins by opening, thanks. It has been my friend these valuable years in conjunction with the Spectra profissonal 500 and do not want to abandon it, never let me be wrong. Best regards Jorge

I had the same problem and was resolved when possible the same way, but is not always possible so I chose to make very soft light when threw the two together and make the f stop to the skin clear and dark as dark, in some cases where it could pose a strong backlight in black actor or change the direction of the keylight to im, and used in some takes a soft diffuser in camera, and it seemed to me very acceptable. Best regards Jorge Rondão

My Beaulieu ZM 4

Thank you so Terry, problem solved with only a strip of cardboard glued to create less tension in the tensor of the film in the projection window, now runs the whole movie until the end without jumping and very quiet and clear without scratching. Now the problem is that, after having this resolved to no longer lamp light, perhaps burned by the diode be doing tests with it open and not refrigerate well, send to repair and not have it with me and now I can not put the photos of placement of the card. Best Regards Jorge

Thanks Jim, that was what needed because the manuals are almost equal to the II and for 4. Is already bound. :P

Thanks, for now i have wath i need.

Thanks to all.

Thank you all, problem solved. Apparently was a lack of battery, but not exclusively, the problem is that when using the cable of electric shot that happens sometimes the curtain is not in place, then did several times in normal shooting and released, and should have used this cable in testing the camera until it ran out of battery power and then stayed like that.

Hi, I bought a beaulieu 4008 ZM4 on ebay, was apparently the only battery that was discharged, but even before the battery will charge by express some things, the look is more normal for the display to see the focus etc, but when I look at display only I have a flat image and 1 / 3 of the image in the rest low is black, will damage the guillotine or works only with the battery? I have no instructions, and I do not know for serving the contacts back to the bottom of the display, where is the lock? so is the small button underneath the lens? Where to adjust the speed? So that is threaded over the entrance of the filter plate that eliminates 85? Please happy the owners of these cameras help me in what they can, if somebody has the manual thank I would have to help on the first point to whether to return or not the camera or it is worth getting . Excuse my English but is not good ... Regards Jorge

Hello, did you know any laboratory that made the transition from negative 500T super 8mm to Reverse film? or is only to telecine? Regards

How best to illuminate outdoor night with the public new lighting lamps with that horrible yellow color orange? Usually I shot with my lighting to 3200K with gelatin 1 / 2 cto + 1 / 4 cto, but I had better results instead of adding 1 / 4 cto, a straw, and the HMI with Full and a 1/2 cto. Watch out for the irises are very low, usually 2.8f with 500T, but it is good for print all of the streets. then it is only correct in post production and the lamps are already more will normal temperature, only has one drawback, the passing traffic are all with xenon lamps!! :rolleyes: Anybody have any solutions to these situations more practical course without having to replace the bulbs for lack of budget?
