Ultra 16mm Progress

[John Pytlak RIP]

Yep, that's why I took my CP-16 gate to a jeweler!

It looks perfect, like a machine did it! These guys are amazing craftsmen.

"Just for the record", is there a precise documentation of the camera image area for Ultra-16, equivalent to standards SMPTE 7 for Regular-16 and SMPTE 201 for Super-16? Or do you just file the aperture and run tests until you like what you see?

 

Note that the tolerances for Super-16 are as tight as +/- 0.05 millimeters (e.g., dimension C for the centerline is 9.00 +/- 0.05 millimeters).
