I have an Arri 435ES 4perf movement, I could sell it to you for 3500 euros + technician fees to remove it from the current housing. You can send me a private message if you're interested.

Zeiss Distagon, superspeed MK1 16mm, T1.2, PL mount
alexandre favre replied to alexandre favre's topic in Cine Marketplace
1200 euros. -
"This lens is an excellent companion to the Canon 8-64mm T2.4. It covers an excellent range, and it’s still very compact and lightweight, perfect for documentary shooting. It’s sharp across its entire range and has medium contrast. It maintains a fast T stop of T2.5 over the entire zoom range with no ramping. Condition: The lens has a small fungus mark on the side of one of its elements. Although there is a small mark on the coating, it does not appear in the captured images. There are also small cleaning marks and dust on the front and rear elements. The lens was serviced last month. Price: 3900 euros Pickup is possible in Switzerland.

Bolex SBM - Fitting a Vario Switar 86 Zoom
alexandre favre replied to Graham Ellard's topic in Lenses & Lens Accessories
According to Yves Bornand, a Bolex technician, the rear ring of the lens can be resized using a lathe. This procedure, illustrated with the POE zoom, is applicable to the Vario Switar 86 as well. -

From Serial Number 233 801. "Material and surface treatment of the gate have been modified in order to reduce sliding friction and the risk of oxydation and emulsion deposits. Stainless steel has been replaced by aluminium, and the thickness of the picture gate has been diminished in order to avoid reflexes. Introduction of a Nylon insert opposite the reverse motion claw. Both Nylon inserts are driven and cemented." Your REX3 camera is from 1963 -1964 (202501-210600). A qualified technician replaced the film gate during a CLA.

It is a Chronocinegines Longines with a Paillard Bolex camera modified to run at 100FPS. It was used to capture a series of images for the photo-finish. See pictures below. I was trying to find the name of the cameramen without success.

I was trying the super 16 Zeiss super speed MKII (12-16-25-50) with the red epic helium 8K and It looked good in 4K. The 9.5mm did not work with the mount I had unfortunately. The canon 8-64 is also nice but vignette in 4K. You could change the red colorspace to Arri Alexa https://truecolor.us/downloads/red-to-alexa-lut-package/ After that, you could color space transform to cineon and use the print film emulation in Davinci or the one from lightillusion. If you add blur to the footage under the layer of grain, it helps. You could add halation as well. Or use existing plugins: https://videovillage.co/filmbox/ https://www.dehancer.com/store/davinci_resolve

If you don't find a Jem Ball, you could use a Chimera lantern with a Chimera triolet Flood Light. https://chimeralighting.com/shop/?item=29231
