<div> <font face="Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">Okay, summary of a few posts--<br>
<br>
Staging solenoids are precise-- which is why they are five times the price of a standard solenoid. Thirty bucks rather than five dollars and eighty nine cents, which I can live with.<br>
<br>
The metal backed mirror on the 2b/2c body only needs a black velvet rub bar above and below the gate level between the body and shutter with MINIMAL contact to seal well enough for a six hour daylight f11 with XT320 stock. <br>
<br>
The baseplates show up on eBay from time to time. The Technovision and Panavision verions are better than the Arri version.<br>
<br>
Now you've jogged my memory. I think I have an Arri 2c three focal length Technovision prime anamorphic set, someplace, and some 2b/2c mags-- including a modified dual compartment armored Cineflex four hundred that runs up to about 86fps. I only got into the Konvas because the costs of maintaining the Arri line was spiraling upward too fast, but when I found the peformance of LOMO anamorphics that hooked me. <br>
<br>
I still don't like the Konvas-- or the Eclair, either.<br>
<br>
As for facebook?<br>
<br>
What if you don't <i>have</i> a face to post?<br>

<div><font face="Arial, Helve tica, sans-serif">About ten years ago I had a
"time lapse staging solenoid" drive for the Arri 2b/2c camera, and it worked
like a charm, but would be cheaper to build than to buy.<br>
<br>
Get an Arri
or Panavision brand "flat base adapter" for the camera. That's made to
put the camera motor beside the camera, not under it-- but then, instead of
an Arri motor get an off the shelf "staging solenoid" used on sorting
conveyor belts, and set it up to pull a ratcheted drive cog mounted where
the motor would normally go. This means you can program the staging
solenoid to trip at given intervals, anywhere from twenty or so times a
second down to once a month. The difference is that when it fires it
fires fast, and you get a properly exposed, advanced, and handled
frame.<br>
<br>
If you do get a motor from Clive, it will work, but staging
solenoids are interval set items, the motors are
not.<br>

<div>HI guys, for this moment , i own a Arri2C full overhaulhed with a 24FPS
motor (24fps syncro only) and PL mount ...</div>
<div>i will receive my 1000 feet magazine for Arri2/Arri3 ....
<div>so i will have completed my system with own equipment for tape to film
....and mount all in a metalic structure with marks for </div>
<div>1:85, 16/9, and scope transfer </div>
<div> </div>
<div>BUT, i am really interested in a 3 to 4 FPS transfer from stills ...
(animation or frame by frame transfer ...) OK it take more time but will
make another option to tranfer video to film for my customers ) </div>
<div> </div>
<div>SO i need info about a TOBIN motor for low speeds ... frame by frame 1
fps 2fps 3 fps .... (like the timelapse ones ...) to mount it on my Arri2C
</div>
<div>I need so a Inverse Baseplate to plate the motor in a side of the
camera and NOT below ... for more stability ...</div>
<div> </div>
<div>so any Timelapser have info wich motor TOBIN or other will be good for
this system ???</div>
