  1. 5250 for the SR2 3500 for the SR1 Or take both for 6500.
  2. Bump again 5950 for the sr2 kit 4250 for the sr1 kit all reasonable offers considered, if you are local/paying cash you will get an even better deal, and can inspect and use in person.
  3. Bump. Please be wary of people posting pictures of my cameras and gear on these forums, as well as on other sites for sale. I will GLADLY video chat you and pull out all the gear and show it to you live. (Or even come over in person and check it out.) Thanks!
  4. DO NOT BUY THIS. THIS IS MY CAMERA, NOT THIS GUYS. HE COPIED MY PHOTOS AND EBAY POSTING. DO NOT BUY. Total scam. I don't know how to report... https://www.ebay.com/itm/265915089806 this is my posting.
  5. Bro this is my posting, this guy is a scammer. DO NOT BUY. THIS IS MY CAMERA I AM SELLING.
  6. Hi Gregg. You can see this link here for one listing, https://www.ebay.com/itm/265915089806 -- and can go click on the profile there to see more listings. Thanks for the interest!
  7. Hello there, I am selling my Arri sr2 and sr1 french. (Many other arri models as well) I have them listed on a major auction website for high prices (in hopes after they take 30% in fees... I'd get roughly what I want for them.) I have received many reasonable offers from people, but the buyers all seem to be less knowledgeable than I'd like when it comes to cine cams.. Posting here in hopes of more legitimate buyers/those who understand how these units operate. Each kit has 2 mags, onboard batteries (likely need recell, few have been already in the last 3-4 years), 10-100 carl zeiss, video tap, t bar, case, misc extras. (Also sr2 comes extra with almost everything for a HS conversion except motor). They all run just fine, could use an annual service/lube as they haven't been serviced in quite a while. I'd highly recommend at least a lube before actual use, to prevent movement from wearing/damages. I'm ultimately getting out of the film game, as things have changed in life. Under 'retroroyalty' on the auction site. Short answer, I'm asking 7500 net (either paypal goods/service, or local cash pickup) for the SR2 kit, and 5000 net for the sr1 french kit. (Or best reasonable offer on each.) If you show up in person with cash at a police station (safe meet up) I'll give you a much better deal. Also the more cams you buy the better the deal gets. (see auction site additional listings) Shipping to cont. 48 USA only at this time. If you email me, that is the best way to get in contact, please provide a US # and I can text you some pictures/videos of the cameras running. My email is brendancollins09@gmail.com *Also available, 3x 16bl kits, 1x 16S, 1x 16M, 1X Bolex H16M5

Read the original listing, Hope this is understandable, and makes sense.
  9. Robert Thank you for the replies. I ultimately figured out the problem, well problems. First one was that there was chipped pieces of film within the magazines. Secondly, the film had shrunk some, and lastly, I managed once or twice to slip the film on the wrong side of the gearing in the magazines, causing it to get taught and rip. It was user error. I sacrificed a vision 2 roll, and ran it through about 30 times in all magazines (all 6), and it worked just fine on both cameras. The tensioners/clutches from when I took it apart, The tensions were all good, however I did have to lubricate the sprocket shaft on one magazine, as you mentioned the grub screw to take it off the shaft, this had dried up grease that was all gummed up. Either way, I managed to fix the problems, for now. I've seemed to not have much luck with any BL's I've owned, they seem to be very needy! (I say that as the handle trigger on one no longer works randomly... runs once power is plugged in... >.<)
  10. AZ Spectrum has done some wonderful work for me in the past. What an electronic wizard!
  11. Carl, the variable speed motors work at 8V. I would say that you are losing voltage inside, it happens to my Arri 16 M . (If I put 8v in, only 5v shows at the motor.) Or maybe even a bad ground connection to the motor? I would suggest sending it in for servicing, as you don't want to pump too much power through it and then damage the electronics and everything. Or maybe something on the inside is super dirty/old grease that needs to be cleaned and re-lubricated?
  12. Hi there, Please read this thoroughly. Gauging interest in the sale of my entire 16mm cine collection. Full disclosure - I am on the fence about selling these, some of them need work, some work I have done myself, other stuff is beyond my abilities for servicing. I am gauging interest and seeking offers. I would trade everything for a classic VW Bus that needs work (1970s westie or conversion preferred, not automatic, and no I won't trade it for the one thats been sitting in the field for 45 years and hasn't moved once) Moral of the story is, I'm out of college, I'm working more, I have less time to shoot on film than I would like, but I've gained an interest on working on my jeep and other vehicles more and more. I am a hobbiest, and not a professional. This is why I am open to offers after you have seen the condition of the units themselves. Many issues that I posted on the forums ultimately resulted from user error. (I have never been taught, just self taught.) Anything marked with an " * " , I would recommend servicing before use. Many come with accessories, and extras, such as batteries , chargers, etc. Please contact me about each unit, and I will tell you specifics on what I see as a user. Please see google drive link for pictures of each unit, and the condition. I am accepting offers on all units, please message me to start a conversation if you are interested. Willing to sell all for bulk buyer. USA ONLY PLEASE. https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1TvcpLjQ8VMbB4pgURjIwrRPNLjxA1pXm?usp=sharing Arriflex 16 M* - Serial Number 097!

  13. www.SealconUSA.com Part numbers for mini jaeger connectors male and female. SJ533800006 SJ533811006
  14. I've recently inquired about those Jaeger connectors from the only supplier I could find in the US. They are extremely expensive (55-75$ each)... I ended up swapping out for mini XLR / XLR connectors.
  15. Visual Products is a GEM ! The other major seller/repairer of equipment has always given me the cold shoulder even when looking to purchase expensive (to me) equipment, or inquire about repairs (I'd get the answer of, "send it in and we will bill you *hangs up phone*", or "Email us to purchase (emailed) no response.. --).. Maybe since I'm lower budget (3k or less annually for equipment/repairs), I don't get a priority there. Visual products has always given me their full attention, very honest, and do great work. I've had many repairs done by them, along with accessories purchased from them, and I'm always treated the way you would expect to be from someone who values your business. If you were planning on buying a camera from one of the major companies, I would pay the extra few dollars and get one from visual products hands down. But this is just my personal experience as a hobbiest and not a studio/production. I think that either way you go, you will get a quality camera that has been serviced, and I've learned after my short 5 years in collecting/using 8/16mm gear, is that it pays to get something in great condition with known service history. When things haven't been serviced and maintained/ stored properly, you end up paying for more on repairs/servicing / loss of work due to down equipment, and just pay more than the camera would be worth after having an overhaul.
