Bolex EBM on/off switch modification
Arthur Sanchez replied to Arthur Sanchez's topic in Cine Marketplace
Right... I've seen all the electronics inside the EBM... I was referring to additional electronics inside the handle grip where an ON/OFF button is located. or is it simple pass through. -
Bolex EBM on/off switch modification
Arthur Sanchez replied to Arthur Sanchez's topic in Cine Marketplace
Thank you Roberto... I will try this then... my fear was there might be some sort of electronic inside... not knowing since I had not taken it apart... yet. thanks again. Arthur! -
...OK, I'm working with Bolex EBM in a studio setting...the camera body will mount directly to the tripod or dolly. I'm not using the handle grip that has the on/off button on it. MY Question is: Can I plug in my generic power supply (12.2VDC) directly into the camera? The on/off switch will be in-line on the cable going from the power supply to the camera? This configuration will help me run the camera remotely. so what is wrong with the setup? Thanks for your support... Arthur!

Reticle for Bolex Viewfinder - Cine16 gate 2.2 : 1
Arthur Sanchez replied to Arthur Sanchez's topic in Cine Marketplace
I made it out of a thin gauge sheet of the material, optical grade resin. very delicate to work with... damages easy... but I'd like to see the lines thinner... -
Reticle for Bolex Viewfinder - Cine16 gate 2.2 : 1
Arthur Sanchez posted a topic in Cine Marketplace
I have the first prototype installed on a Bolex REX... eliminated the mask and have a line on the ground glass defining the exposed gate area. I think the lines should be thinner... -
I wanted to post a clip but the files were to big... The Lab says it is not scratching... but subsequent test will determine that... as far as I see there's no surface damage in the film from the claw... Yes, I have a jig, but like I mentioned but the focus was the main objective of this test... Also that was the last of my test film stock... now to buy more new stock.
-
OK... the test is back... now remember this test was to see if there would be any bowing in the film and cause out focus areas... I used some older... very older crap film for the test so there are some process marks visible along the edge... The lab said it was just the effect of old film stock.... The GATE is a bit high, but I'm almost sure that is slop is the attaching of the gate... this was not calibrated at all... but that's next. So, anything else needs adjusting?

Swap for keeps... just looking for viewfinder parts to make a periscope viewfinder for a Bolex. Hello Tyler... So let me ask... why are EBM's not so popular??? it seem springs are just more convenient is that it???
