It's 10 to 1. I think 6.5mm on the short end. There was a wide angle attachment that took it out to about 4mm, if I recall correctly. I still have mine. Bought it new in about 1980 with the wide, tele and closeup attachments. Wonderful camera, with a good scan it could challenge 16mm when shooting Kodachrome 40. Alas, no more sound cartridges, the sound wasn't half bad for the time.</span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486753824489_41360"><span><br></span></div><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486753824489_41360"><span>Bruce Taylor</span></div><div class="qtdSeparateBR" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486753824489_41361"><br><br></div><div class="yahoo_quoted" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486753824489_41366" style="display: block;"> <div style="font-family: times new roman, new york, times, serif; font-size: 16px;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486753824489_41365"> <div style="font-family: HelveticaNeue, Helvetica Neue, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida Grande, sans-serif; font-size: 16px;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486753824489_41364"> <div dir="ltr" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486753824489_41363"> <font size="2" face="Arial" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486753824489_41362"> <hr size="1" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486753824489_41435"> <b id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486753824489_41371"><span style="font-weight:bold;" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486753824489_41370">From:</span></b> photones--- via Cinema <cinema@konvas.org><br><br> </font> </div> <div class="y_msg_container" id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486753824489_41368"><br><div id="yiv1000105389"><div id="yui_3_16_0_ym19_1_1486753824489_41367">Canon changed gate types with the xl-s series. They are plastic. I have a 1014xl-s I bought with a poorly modified gate. There is a shim behind it which I still have. People ask stupid money for them and most don't sell because of the short zoom range. The 512xl-s is more popular. I'm not exactly sure if it will work but if it doesn't I can always resell it. It looks very similar.</div></div><br><br><br></div> </div> </div> </div></div></body></html>
