Hello everyone, Here the announcement of the 9.5mm film format festival, in Calella (Spain) This year we celebrate de 50 years of this encounter. Like every year, we have film market, projections, discussions, and so on... http://cine9.5mm.free.fr/wcc03300.htm https://www.festimatge.org/en/home/

Hi, the next weekend we celebrate in Calella (Spain), the 49th film festival, all shoot on real film in 9,5mm. We still resist.

Hello, I don't like one thing of this camera. Radioactive lenses. I don't know if MS model have this kind lenses but all the others model I have cheeked have it. In concrete have a thorium oxide rare earth lens inside the optical group. Measured at 1/4" from the radioative lens in my camera, had about 380mR. It's a dangerous level...But this in a few inches to the lenses, it reduces the radiation level to a normal levels. I have tested many cameras, and lenses in amateur cinematogrphy machines; Canon Soopic, Canon 814 electronic, and some Berthiot lenses with "C" and "D" mount, have high radiation levels. Other problem to use this kind of rare earth on lenses, is the oxidation. This rare earth, oxidation reduces the light can pass through the lenses. I think it reduces the light between 0.3 to 1 point. ....On the other side, thorium-oxide lenses produce more clear colours, and less colour distorsion on edges and shapes.

Hello, Negative film are always for scannning. But an way maybe some lab can do a copy of your film in a positive film. Or in future if you are interested to shoot in negative film, because you have a stock or something like that...You could be develop this kind of films with E-6 Process, for color (like a cross process in photography...). Or develop in B/W positive process, but in both development procedures you obtain a brown-orange colored mask in the film, because negative films are not ready for projection.

Hello, Excellent work! Great scan! :)

Hello, I hope to see you on this 4th edition. This year, also with many projections throught the day, and masterclasses about all related with S8 films. Greetings.

Hello, thank you everybody. The camera works correctly. But now I have more questions: Is possible to camera works at reverse? I think so, but I no have idea what use to do it. Maybe using a special unit. And I see below the window, a very little hole, and inside there are a lamp, perhaps is the mark sistem? The last question, any body knows where can I find the magnetic recording unit for the camera? Thank you so much.

Thank you so much, It's just that I need!

Hello, I have a Arriflex 16 Bl, but no have a battery pack, or a power supply. In the camera at control unit, I connect the correct multipin cable, but in the end of the cable I have a male conector with 4 pins. ¿ Anybody knows wich voltage I need to apply in all the four pins to fed the camera correctly. Or anybody have a schematic diagram, or electronic schema ? Thankyou very much.
