I want to thank everyone who has either posted a response to my initial question or send me an email. I did locate a set of Kinetals but their mount is not a bayonet, C-mount or PL. As soon as the rain stops here in San Francisco Bay area I will shot a test roll using the Zeiss primes and the zoom that came with the camera, an Angenieux-Zoom F. 8-64mm 1:1.9 Type 8X8B. I plan to use Kodak Vision 3 T200.

I have an Angenieux - Zoom F.8-64mm 1:1.9 Type 8x8B and I am trying to find a lens adapter so I can use 52mm filters. I just received a Heliopan Nr. 611 E 52/46.5X0.5 adapter but it seems not to have the right threads. Any thoughts?

I am looking to shoot a 5 minute piece using my Beaulieu 4008ZM super 8 camera and I was thinking of renting a set of Zeiss Super Speed Primes that are used on 16mm cameras. The primes have bayonet mounts and I have a Century Optics adapter. Has anyone tried this or know if do or does not work?

I have a question regarding the operation of the filter key and what should be visible in the view finder. When I insert the key into the handle of my Beaulieu 4008ZM I do not see anything happening, is this normal for the installed internal filters? Peter

I have just purchased my 4008 and am looking for a rail system and came across this thread. Does American Cinematographic Systems still exist? If so would someone please post the contact information.
