Not sure if anyone is interested in buying some beat up old lenses that need servicing but I've got a Zeiss Jena 50mm f1.5 and a Kinoptik 5.7mm f1.8 - both arri std mount - that I'm looking to get rid of for cheap Picture link: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/12iZ6OrIXMPhnk5SK6U9MKqV8LseR5CPw?usp=sharing The Zeiss has an issue with the focus, its not working with my Arri-S > PL adapter, also there are some bubbles in the glass and it's yellowing slightly. Not entirely sure what the issue is with the focus but it could be a good project for someone with the knowledge and time to flip lenses The Kinoptik - which is a fixed focus lens - is calibrated to focus only several inches in front of the lens. I brought it to a technician to get it adjusted but he didn't know what to do with it! Anyway there's also a small chip out of the front element and some small amount of fungus it looks like on the rear element, although I don't find these issues affect image quality I'm thinking $250 each?

Thank you Charles, board god, I should have known you would be the man to talk to about this Very nice, is the Fotodiox also quick release? This QC'd unit wouldn't require any shims?

-1 for replying to my own topic - Does anyone know if this adapter will fit an LTR with Les Bosher PL mount? https://www.ebay.com/itm/264962479065

Hi all, searching for an Arri-B to PL adapter (for S16 superspeeds to Aaton LTR PL mount) In Canada if possible, but not required. cheers Steve

How so?

Interesting point, Orwo Filmotec is a German company but you think because of access to oil it may derail the release? They seem to be rolling out the Wolfen NP100 no problem though

Surprised more ink hasn't been spilled about this yet - the new ECN-2 color negative stock confirmed release for July! https://www.orwo.wtf/blog/orwo-managed-financial-restructuring-plans-agreed-by-courts-and-dates Anyone have any inside info? hopefully they produce something that can compete with the 500t for versatility. I want some market competition ?

Hey there, I've got a goldmount battery and an anton bauer adapter and I'm wondering if this will be fine with my LTR 7 or am I running the risk of frying the board? I know the LTR 54 could take up to 16v for using higher frame rate but am unsure about the LTR 7 cheers! Steve

Searching for one that will be compatible with my late Aaton LTR7 and old style arri-s lenses with keyways. I know TLS has an adapter like this, waiting to hear back from them but would prefer to buy second hand if possible. I purchased a Raf Camera adapter for this purpose but it extends too far (or is too wide) as it hits the interior rim of my PL mount (old aaton mount underneath).

is the 500T still avail?

Looking for a line on any techs that can clean/repair Aaton mags in Canada. Any advice appreciated! I'm located in Toronto but can ship, cheers! Steve

Maybe if you gave a better discount people would buy? at this price point they may as well just buy it new

Does anyone know any more about this? Are there any vendors who adapt Rollei lenses to PL?

Which of the vintage arri std Schneider lenses (xenon, cine-xenon, cinegon, etc) cover the s16 frame? ive read there used to be detailed PDFs on vintage Schneider glass but the hosting site removed them, is that info available anywhere else?

Try visual products? I know they get this kind of gear in occasionally

If anyone’s looking to offload one, would prefer to buy here then eBay. Shoot me a dm! cheers Steve

Cheers Raymond! By the way - anyone interested in purchasing this camera should follow up on eBay https://www.ebay.ca/itm/284547483792?hash=item42405a0890:g:JjYAAOSwvmNhnxEy

Hey Thomas I’d love to hear more about the Aaton package, very interested

Reviving this thread to ask if anyone knows where to find one of these adapters these days, cheers! steve

Hey Olle, no I think the opposite, saturated market means low prices yes $9000 CAD same price as the ad, I live in Canada. Ok well if you hear of any private sellers trying to get rid of a 16mm package at a decent price just give me a shout pal, cheers! Steve

Hey thanks for this Olle, Would love to know where I can get a 16mm package for 4500 in this market, can you connect me? Cheers! Steve

Newly CLA'd Arri SrII with mag - CLA'd this month in Japan, mechanics and optics in pristine condition. Sad to see it go, its a very beautiful camera. During CLA the main belt was replaced and adjusted, everything disassembled and cleaned and film movement mechanism was corrected. Clean optics. Asking $9000 Test video can be found here, more pictures available on request! Cheers, Steve

Looking for another SRII mag thx Steve
