  1. Find out any info on this? I have a similar looking head except each axis has 4 settings for resistance, or 1 setting that has no resistance and 3 progressive levels of resistance.
  2. Hi all I've got a technical question - I'm trying to decipher whats going on in this cool spot shot by Kasper Tuxen, specifically the kind of 'non crystal-sync' looking exposure variation or flickering that is occurring around 1:05 and again from about 1:13 through to 1:25. Have you seen this before? Is it as simple as they shot it with an older wind up 16mm camera without crystal sync or is it something more complicated? Maybe a modified krasnogorsk? Is this effect recreatable with a production level 16mm cam like the SR3 or is this a special homebrew made using an old toy 16mm camera? Would love to get your input, cheers Steve
  3. True indeed, an LTR and a 416 all look the same on the other side! IMO the LTR 54 is the entry level professional grade 16mm camera (the SR1 is just too loud, although I'm sure usable if you can get around that) you really don't need anything more than the crystal sync, videotap potential, and a handful of variable speeds, although the perks of an XTR are definitely a bonus and I would love to own one some day.
  4. Getting rid of some old gear and wanted to clear this filter out, looking for $200 OBO. pictures here: https://ibb.co/album/rxtSJL Located in Toronto but can ship, let me know if you have any questions or want more photos thanks! Steve
  5. Can't buy the lens but love watching your vids Olle, you're a talented guy
  6. In Montreal you've got Mels (formerly vision globale), world class lab and scanning with all the bells and whistles like rushes but on the pricey side. Toronto has Niagara custom lab which is absolute dogsh*t top to bottom in my personal experience (and many of my friends): Old chem, no guaranteed timeline, dusty dry box, low quality scan, bad service etc. Plus they'll charge you out the wazoo. For the past couple years I've been sending all my film to Cine-lab across the border in MA. No issues and great quality stuff at a much better rate but similar quality to MELS. --- For s16 gear rental in Toronto you've got LIFT (Liaison of Independent Filmmaking Toronto). You have to pay a fee to join and then you get access to their gear at cheap rates (in the great tradition of north american film co-ops). They have several aatons and some good 16mm lenses, including some bayonet mount mki superspeeds and some Angie zooms. I think some of the bigger houses rent s16 gear as well like SR3s and 416s and whatnot but at that point you're looking at some pretty steep rates. hope this was helpful!
  7. I answered this question in my post - they have a bad reputation for taking weeks and weeks to ship out
  8. Anybody got some of this stuff that they don't need anymore? I know all about its issues but just can't get enough of those swampy colours! Would prefer to buy secondhand as Orwo seems like they're not great about shipping things out in a timely manner cheers Steve
  9. Hi all, putting a project together and searching for any second hand vision 3 freezer stock - also looking to pickup a bit of 5294 for stills tests. cheers! Steve
  10. Think this one would work? https://www.long-mcquade.com/232511/Pro-Audio---Recording/Signal-Processors/EcoFlow/DELTA-Portable-Power-Station.htm
  11. Lots of shit eating scammers out there
