With the new pitch adjustment you can adjust the
camera to optimize the running noise level when
different types of film stock are used. The mechani-
cally adjustable mirror shutter enables shorter
exposure times and allows use of HMI-lights, even
with older ballasts.
Movement
The kinematic film-movement with pitch adjustment
is designed for extremely quiet running. The regis-
tration pin guarantees optimal image steadiness.
Speed can be set between 5 and 75 fps (with HS
between 5 and 150 fps).
Checking Film Transport
• With the magazine attached depress the PHASE
key – the camera will run slowly (1 fps). This is
recommended every time a loaded magazine is
attached to the camera to assure correct film
transport.
Pitch Adjustment
With the pitch adjustment you can adjust the camera to
optimize the running noise level of the camera at
standard speed using a variety of different types of film
stock.
• Let the camera run at the desired standard running speed.
• Set the hexagon key SW 2 (key width 2 mm) into the
pitch adjustment .
• By pressing, engage the pitch adjustment with the
key, and by turning the key, select the position that
optimizes the camera noise level.
