Hello there ! I am wondering about the scan part of the production for upcoming tests on an eclair gv16. Am i suppose to ask to the lab to make the Scan or TC at regular 25fps recommendation or am i missing something ? I understand that it is good to match the frame rate to the scan/TC 'rate' for 25 fps and under, but for the rest, i don't have an idea. thanks in advance Jordan

Hi! My name is Pietro Brunelleschi. young dp from Italy. Recently my Eclair npr motor broke down and now I'm looking for another one in Europe while I'm trying to bring the broke one back to life. I don't know if in Europe there are lots of motors for Eclair Npr, but I know there are like 12 kind of dirrent motor compatibles that can work with her. This one down ( image ) is my current motor. This is a request of help , of motor, ( to buy if someone has one to sell ) and also of advice if someone knows something that can help me with it. Thanks to all. Pietro Brunelleschi
