    I did not want to post this so soon, then again I did not expect Tommy and Lasse to switch their design to a 100ft camera as well. I was relieved to see that Galapagos has a very different design philosophy compared to my camera. I wish them success, I admire their work and find it inspiring.

     

    I’ve been working on the Y16, a tiny Super 16 camera for quite some time. The Y8 Super 8 camera project never felt quite right. It was over-engineered, and the PL mount was less than ideal for this film format. I kept telling myself I should put all this effort into a Super 16 camera…so I did.

    This is the companion camera I really want to my Aaton XTR Prod. Compact, ergonomic, and stripped down. Does anyone else? Probably only a few.

    If you can’t find a feature or function in the description, it means the Y16 will not have it ♥

     

    I’ll post updates on my LinkedIn page from time to time, you can follow the project there if you want. I won’t post any updates here - it’s the wrong forum for this.

    Hi David,

    This seems like an interesting project. What stage of the process are you in at the moment? Is this something we should be expecting relatively soon? 

     

    Thanks

    Personally have so much love the K3 for what it is. It will never be a quiet sync sound camera but you can do so much with it that is simply not possible with a full size camera (XTR, 416, SR) Max's mod does sorta fill a need for many film shooters who want something that is a little more featured, accessible, 100ft loads & can carry in a small bag. I would probably even consider a 'well serviced' K3 for a c camera on anything feature, commercial etc. 

    Here's a handful of projects that I've employed various K3's on. 

     

     

     

    These look awesome! Don't you a K3 with a PL mount? I was scrolling through sharegrid and saw someone who was renting theirs and couldn't help but notice that some of the screenshots they put on the post belonged to the first video you posted.
