Arri 16 -BL: Rock steady, pin registration -standard setting ARRI movement: this is a very late model "FLAT SIDE" ARRIFLEX - utilizing Arri's own crystal control - built in. This also has a 11 PIN FISHER pin out: crucial for IRIS/SPEED control, single framing/animation controllers etc, etc! It comes stock with the Arriflex BAYONET mount [also accepts standard mount ARRI lenses], this is a self-blimped, RARE factory supplied ARRIFLEX X-tal sync [this was the last of the BL-16's and this cyristal sync/drive was the template for the SR series which followed it] and variable speed [9/12/24-48 fps] camera. The controller drives 9/12/24/48 crystal speeds and can run at any and all speeds from 4 fps up to 60 fps with any Fisher pin external speed control [external speed control not included] running into the FISHER connector.

Monitor can stand alone or mounts to camera [camera to monitor mount & remote monitor stand supplied]. The camera features an extremely rare Arri FIBER OPTIC ground glass with "TV SAFE", framing brackets, and crosshairs which are also transmitted to the color monitor via the built in video tap - great for watching microphone placement down into the frameline.
