Does anyone know what compensation is needed for an Antique Suede 3 filter?

Hey Derik, Thomas sold it in 2017. Today it would cost a few pennies more.

Did you mention 200 ft mags per chance?

The 100ft daylight reel loaded magazine is the one thing that I would question. Other than that I look forward to seeing how Galapagos S16 progresses.

It would be interesting to learn how many of the buyers that committed to buying the Gentoo were professionals or rental houses.

There’s an SR3 on eBay currently for $31k. I wouldn’t call that affordable but still, I stand corrected 😉 Btw. when I sold my SR3 for £4K in 2017 and bought a 416 for £9k, a camera tech shook his head and asked me why I would do such a thing since there isn’t that much of a difference between them.

I’ve not been on here as long as you but have never come across this.

Aapo, who said that. Who is chasing the perfect free camera? Really don’t know how you came to that conclusion. Someone here mentioned a modern equivalent to the Arriflex 16 S but nobody has been discussing an affordable 416. One is a one man portable camera the other a camera that needs a crew to operate. I think there is a market for the former.

Fantastic! Was this ever made?

I’d love to see that, thank you!

Up until recently the man who developed S16 conversions of the SR and SR 2 cameras when he was at Arri charged less than 2000 Euro for the work. He is retired now and a little reclusive. There are so many people keen to get their hands on a Super 16 camera, I suspect a newly engineered one could be a success, as long as it is affordable and not just for rental houses.

Which one is it?

50 x 5000 Euro for a run of the Gentoo is 250k Euro. It doesn’t look like Logmar is doing this for the money!

I have never used a Minima but that sounds even better! 😊

A 200 ft mag could be interesting, one that slots in like the 416 mag.
