Great! Keep us updated please.

Nice! What a coincidence... I'll write you a a message.

Thank you so much ?

Thank you for sharing your experience, Jason and Dom! @Jason Mavrokefalos When I receive the Arriflex SR and it is in good working condition, I might get back to you and ask for more details, if I can't find bayonet mounts ? @Dom Jaeger Do you by chance have a hint where I could find the right bayonet mounts? I assume a lot of them are lost in attic-boxes side by side with screws, washers and gears, considered as being worthless old camera parts...

I have a set of the Zeiss S16 MK II lenses with PL mount. Now I am getting an ARRIFLEX SR I camera with a Bayonet mount... As far as I know, it was easily possible to convert the MK I bayonet mount lenses into PL. My question is, if it would be possible vice versa - to unscrew the PL-part from the lenses and slide a bayonet mount over the rear lens barrel. Thanks for your help, Sebastian

Hi, Kamran! In general, I also would appreciate to see more film stocks. I just wonder, if it is that easy, to just take a film that's made for still photography, cut it into 16mm strips and punch in the proper perforation. Does the Foma 200 provide the specific requirements for a motion picture film stock? Regarding thickness, flexibility, back coating, scratch resistance, etc. It would be sad if you and your backers invest a lot of money in this special order and it turns out to be not strong enough to run at high speeds trough a film camera - or if it is too stiff to run smoothly - or if it is full of scratches - or if the emulsion is not evenly enough and flickers in motion picture, etc. These are a lot of ??? Did you do any research, if the Foma 200 is usable? Don't get me wrong, I really appreciate your initiative and don't want to talk you out of it - I just want to make you aware of these questions... Good luck, Sebastian

Hi Kamran! That's correct. The 400ft mag has its own motor but it will be powered via the camera. The user manual mentions that it will initially take up to 6A. @David Sekanina If you ever want to use a 400ft mag on your ST, make sure, you have the 12V version of the torque magazine motor. If it is not labelled as 12V it is the 8V version, which might be toasted, if you feed it with your power bank.
