  1. Does anyone know which film stock was used in Beethoven's 2nd from 1993 (Rod Daniel; film st. bernhard dog family) ? Thanks
  2. Hello, I set the camera on TCS 6. I hope that was right :rolleyes: . That were my last 18 meters of this 'funny' colored film. I need it to finish a short film project, which I started two years ago, when Velvia in 16mm was still available. @ David Cunningham Did you use this film very often ? Micha
  3. It's funny to see, how cheap the Kinoptiks lenses were this time. Today, 35 years later, they are soooo expansive ....
  4. Thanks for your answers. Does anybody know until when they were made ?
  5. Hello, sometimes you can find some Cine-Kowa Lenses for 16mm, for example the 1,1 / 25mm in Arri mount. I think, this are lenses made for the Arri SR cameras. (I think CP sold them as cinema-product-lenses too) What do you know about them ? Some people say, they were "a kind of copy" of the Zeiss HS lenses. Is that right ? Michael
  6. That's interresting. Do you know examples of films, which were filmed with kinoptik lenses ?
  7. Hello, you often can find old Kinoptik lenses, for example the Apochromat 25mm, in Cameflex, C-mount or other mounts for very, very high prices. What do you think about this lenses ? How is their quality and their 'look' compared to other lenses like Zeiss etc ? Why are this lenses so expensive ? Micha
  8. Hello, I would like to use my last roll of Velvia 16mm in a Arri SR-III. Does anybody know, which setting for Timecode is right ? Thanks !
  9. Wasn't it a Kowa Cine-Prominar 40mm lens ? They were often used together with Super Balter Lenses . . .
  10. I think, the Angenieux 12-120mm will vignette at the 'beginning'. My 12-120mm does. Are there more different versions of this lens or are they all the same ? The Angenieux 15-150 should be OK for S16. I've tested it and I can't find any vignetting. There are two old types from the 70s: The 1,9/15-150mm and the 2,8/15-150mm. Michael
  11. Thanks. That's very interresting. Until which time were the panchros Ser.II/III made ? The 70s ?
  12. Hello, which are the significat differences between the speed panchros Ser. 1 and 2 ? Most of the lenses you can find are Ser. II lenses. I think, the Ser 1, the original Speed Panchros, are from the 40s or 30s, aren't they ? How is the image quality and the 'look' of this older lenses ? Mich And what's about the kinetal lenses (made for 16mm). What's the difference between the glass of the Panchros and the Kinetal ?
  13. Hi Mike, yes, but there are some Super Baltar lenses in Ceco Housing for example, which are for BNC and not for BNCR like Mark-II or other, because they are 'long' behind the mount. You find sometimes lenses in normal looking housings (metal rings) with this 'problem' too. I think they were made for the non-reflex Mitchell cameras too . . .
  14. Hello ! There are old Baltar lenses (not Super Baltar, for non reflex Mitchell) with colored dots, for example purple or yellow dots on it an there are lenses without any dots. Someone told me something about that, but I'm not sure, if it's right. What's the difference between this lenses ? Michael
  15. Hi ! Does anybody know, where the Fuji Velvia-50 in 16mm (and S8 too) is still available now ? (11.09.2013)
  16. What do you think about the skin-tones of the Eterna 250 T ? Is ist to grainy to blow up to 35mm (from 16mm) ?
  17. Does anyone know some more examples for film in which kowa cine prominar lenses were used ? It's very interesting . . .
  18. How is the quality of the Kowa Cine PRIMES (for example the 1,1 / 25mm) compared to the Zeiss HS or the Kern lenses like the Kern Macro-Switar 1,1 / 26 mm ? I'm not sure If I should use the Bolex EL with Switar 1,1/26 or the Arri SR with the Kowa Cine 1,1 /25 next week. What would you do ? Michael
  19. Hello, does anybody know which cameras and lenses were used for the old sesame street scenes form the late 1960s and during the 1970s ? (with cookie monster, other blue-grey monsters, ernie &bert etc). I like that dirty, strange, diffuse look of that scenes and the 'pastel-colors', especially of the coats of the blue-grey monsters. :) Michael
  20. Hello, I'm looking for still lenses which are combinable with kowa, super baltar and cooke lenses. I want to use them with the GH-2. What do you think is the difference between Canon and Asahi Takumar lenses, for example the 50mm or the 135 etc. ? Which has got the more 'organic' and 'dramatic' look of them ? (skin tones etc.) micha
  21. Thanks for your answers. And what do you think about the 400 T ? Is it much more grainy than the 250 T ? I would like to use it in 16mm too. Mich
  22. Hello, I'm not really sure which film is better for shooting in Super 16mm (Daylight; Persons and nature): The Fuhi Eterna 250T or the Fuji Eterna 250 Daylight. Which has the finest grain and which is the 'sharper' one ? What would you do ? Micha
