I just read a book about a BBC sponsored British expedition that travelled across Zanzibar and Tanganyika (now Tanzania) in a 3 person hydrogen balloon in the early 1960's featuring an Arriflex camera ( see A. Smith, "Throw out Two Hands" , George Allen & Unwin, (1963) ). The appendix to the book mentioned the camera initially used 8-volt Varley batteries that proved 'spillable and heavy' until one of the cameramen improvised his own battery constructed of electronic flash unit cells, each with 3 floating balls to show the state of charge, embedded in foam rubber and encased in a small metal box that clipped onto the waistband of his trousers. The battery was chargeable from the Land Rover battery via a 12 volt stepdown built in series. They carried a range of 11 lenses for this camera: a 12.5mm Taylor Hobson lens; 40mm, 90 mm, 150mm, 300mm Kilfitt Kilar lenses; as well as 240mm and 400mm Novoflex lenses with follow-focus pistol grips. The film stock (courtesy of the BBC) consisted of 24,000 feet of Eastman Plus-X 16 mm negative film in 100 foot rolls; 24,000 feet of the same in 400 foot rolls; and 12,000 feet of Eastman Tri-X 16mm negative film. The sound recording was done on a Ficord midget tape-recorder.

I dived into 16mm last year with a Bolex and it has been honestly the most fun experience I've had with shooting film. Sure, its expensive but the results you get is just worth it!

@jw48335 Год назад

I started recently with the Keystone A15. For $100 it takes single perf and has and has an adjustable viewfinder covering 13-75mm. I first tried adapted EF glass, but later realized I could fit certain 1980s broadcast TV lenses. I now have a $50 Canon 12.5-75mm F1.8 on it, almost exactly matching the viewfinder. I highly recommend this el-cheapo config for anyone getting started. It blows away even the best super 8 footage. This was great Matt, that's an amazing camera you've got there!

@MatMarrash Год назад

Jeremy thanks for the comment and I'll second your recommendation of the Keystone A15 Newport Deluxe! That's the sweetest camera in their lineup and great to know it's also Single-Perf capable (not all of them are!).

@ChristopherMay Год назад

This was so much fun to watch, Mat. I love both the story of it and your results. I have 8mm videos of my dad (who got me into photography when I was 9) and they’re so special to me. They’ve also added a moment of humor for my family. Sometime after he died, I was going through these old movies and came across one of him swimming in a lake that still had ice on it. I was completely in awe at how hardcore he was and decided that I needed to follow suit. When I moved to Colorado in 2001, a friend an I went hiking up Glacier Gorge. I got to one of the lakes on the hike and noticed that the water was open but there was still ice on it. I had my friend take a few shots of me swimming in the frigid waters. You can see the agony on my face. The next time I was back in Illinois, I showed those pictures to my family and they just started to chuckle. Then laugh. Then completely guffaw. Turns out that my dad had done that someplace in Yellowstone the water was geothermally heated and was perfectly comfortable to swim in…. Anyways, the videos you posted had that same wholesome feel as my dad’s movies to them and I look forward to seeing more!

@MatMarrash Год назад

Thanks Chris, that's what all of this is about, sharing memories! What an awesome moment to share with your family. Now I've got to get some of this 16mm optically printed for projection! x__x

Good film 16mm

@jasonnicholas4336 Год назад

So many memories of shooting 16mm (and this camera) in film school. Not a direction I’d go back in now but thankful that I was given the opportunity to learn on great tools like this. Also, Arri cameras are built like nothing else on earth; this will still run in another 70 years if serviced properly. Clever power solution there as well. We used to have to carry around those giant lead acid pack belts to the detriment of our spines!

@MatMarrash Год назад

Thanks for the comment Jason, every story I've heard about using a battery belt ends in back pain! Definitely another reason I can appreciate the 16S is just how well designed and mechanically sound it is. I firmly believe this camera will outlive me!

@Brackcycle Год назад

Wow! Glad to see the excitement in this video! While I can't see it for myself, I am glad you are enjoying it and I look forward to following your journey.

@AlexLuyckxPhoto Год назад

I have no plans to get into film-based motion pictures. I have dabbled with Super8 a couple of times, but man, that Arri looks awesome. I love the shutter sound, the triple-lens mount, and the history nerd in me loves that it's marked with "Made in Western Germany". I'm sure that you will excel with this new format Mat!

@jmalmsten 7 месяцев назад

one bit of trivia I would challenge is that MOS probably doesn't mean "Mit Out Sound". Although the story of that interpretation is a fun one involving german directors going to Hollywood with poor english skills. But the more probable version I have heard is that MOS means Minus Optical Sound. With Optical Sound referring to the early days of sound on film where they would have an optical sound camera that used 35mm negatives but instead of recording images, they had a light shining through a narrow slit and through modulating either density or width of that exposure with sound from microphones. That strip of film would then be used with the film from the image taking camera to make the final sound on film projection copies. So writing MOS on the slate would indicate to the editor that there is no separate Optical Sound film that they need to find to use the footage. The term just kind of stayed in use after the industry switched to magnetic sound recording on tape.

@bagnome Год назад

I've been playing with 16mm for about half a year now. And it's been fun. Though I've been leaning to the reversal film side of things because I also have a 16mm projector that I've been watching movies and other films on. Now I've been wanting to play back my own home movies that I've shot directly from film. Same bug got me with slide film and slide projectors. I also want to try printing some of my rolls of negative movie film to project. But the negative stuff I've shot so far have been at 16fps where the more recent reversal stuff I shot at 24. And my projector only does 24. Using the old film cameras is fun, but I think it really comes together when you can truly complete the cycle and have a physical product that you can project and watch like people did for nearly a century.

@MatMarrash Год назад

Projection isn't something I've got access to at the moment, but it looks like a lot of fun! One of my all time favorite looks is that of Ektachrome E100 (since there's no more E64) so it's probably only a matter of time. :)

@@MatMarrash they definitely come up quite often, pretty much the only reason I grabbed the second one- saw a really good deal and couldn’t pass it up cause I knew just how amazing of a camera it is. I’m sure one day I’ll have use for an A/B cam setup if I’m shooting 16mm short or something like that! I recommend trying to find one that has the Variable speed motor so you can have the option of the 24fps constant or the 1-60fps with the variable. It can do amazing slow motion all the way to amazing an amazing time-lapse, even double exposure!

@MatMarrash Год назад

Hey Alexis thanks for checking out the video! This was caused by the matte box being a bit too far out when using my wide angle lens and the drop-in filter causing a hard cutoff. Good catch!

@NoctiGirl Год назад

Looking good Mat!! Missed you in Chicago 😮

@richardsisk1770 2 месяца назад

You bought a great camera! Condition is beautiful! I would suggest adding a good fluid head tripod to your kit. There are some to be had at reasonable cost. I bought a used Miller 25 and it’s working well. Sachtler Ace L might work if you can get a deal. Congratulations Mat. Subscribed!

@m00dawg Год назад

Congrats Mat! Both happy and a bit envious you were able to score that sweet camera! 16mm is a film format I really want to get into. Super 8 is neat but 16mm, as you alluded to, seemed to not be that much more expensive in film/dev costs than 8mm but you get seemingly much more sharpness. I'm kinda holding out hope that Kodak's infamous new Super 8 camera might end up being a Super 16 if it ever sees the light of day... Anyways one of those things I haven't been able to remotely justify yet so nice we can all live variously through your 16mm exploration! Again congrats!

@MatMarrash Год назад

Thanks Tim! If Kodak ever does release that Super 8 (or larger) camera to the masses, I'll rent out and shoot some 35mm motion picture film. Not only am I confident that it's vapor-ware, I have a horrendous case of motion picture GAS. >__

@m00dawg Год назад

@@MatMarrash Yeah I was convinced it was too but I heard rumblings about it again. I forgot where. I'll believe it when I see it though. I'm with you on the GAS. I managed to borrow a Super 8 camera for a trip a few years back and I LOVED it but it did help alleviate the GAS a little though I really want to try 16mm. 16mm seems to be an incredible value (if you can get your hands on a camera, which you have!) for economy/quality/portability.

@kelleebolden7936 Год назад

Very nice video! I shoot with a Bell & Howell Filmo 70A and it's a lot of fun.

@andyvan5692 Год назад

great moving video mat, but the other 'boon' to Arri gear, is that they are still in business!, so you can get parts, or at least the archive for the manuals, parts diagrams, etc.

@MatMarrash Год назад

Thanks Andy! I already knew before diving into this Arri that they were still making the latest and greatest, but I was surprised to find out that there were still dedicated Arri techs in the US and EU that fully service them. That's dedication!

@fenna_pel Год назад

Hi Mat, thats quite the dive in the rabbit hole. Being exposed to and on super8 in my youth, i cant help but feel somewhat sentimental 😊 thx for the video 😊

@MatMarrash Год назад

The connection to the past is definitely a part of working with this wild setup. Also the mechanical marvel that is this tank of a camera running at all after laying dormant for 2 years longer than I've been alive!

@andyvan5692 Год назад

great shots mat, and good thing you had that "pro shade" and filter set, as with my hasselblad 500c/m and CFi 80 and 180 mm lenses, they didn't, and when I shot fuji pro 400 H with it, there was massive glare!, so great to have that added to your kit, to save the highlights.

@MatMarrash Год назад

There's currently a love-hate relationship with the shade/matte box. The flare reduction is huge like you've mentioned, but I'm always fighting it with my 10mm Schneider wide angle lens.

@larsbunch Год назад

Cool! It’ll be neat to see what you do with it. I the the DP on a feature about 30 years ago that we shot with a Bolex and a CP-16. We shot on Tri-X reversal because we had planned to go straight to video, but then we ended up blowing it up to 35mm. I’m currently working on re-grading the film in Resolve and it’s interesting to see both the flaws and the virtues of shooting on film. The Arri looks like a lot of fun!

@MatMarrash Год назад

Thanks Lars and very cool to hear about you working on a feature on 16mm! Grading film scans in Davinci Resolve is a treat, especially when working with high quality DPX files!

@DethronerX 7 месяцев назад

I have this camera and Im waiting to shoot it, because I started off with Super8 and this is the next step and I thought of an idea to try, indoors at night time and outdoors (sunrise on the roof) with two people in both places, but you know the overwhelming feeling. I do have an old Sekonic light meter and i got some films from FPP that I can try, including the Blue one, which Im most interested in for sunlight shooting, as a dream sequence.

@tylerhuttosmith Год назад

Motion picture film is a lot of fun! I’d definitely recommend most people start with super 8 or double 8 if they don’t want to deal with cartridges or the upfront cost of 16mm. The cameras are affordable-ish especially if going the double 8 route. Also the FPP is great and would recommend using their bundle services to begin with

@MatMarrash Год назад

Thanks for the Double 8 recommendation Tyler! FPP really is one of the best resources for Double 8 and their scanning setup paired with fresh, low speed film can yield some amazing results.

@ChoppersModelworks Год назад

I wonder how large the 16mm frame could be enlarged? There used to be actual film copy cameras for this but i think they can get up to 3x5 or even 4x6.

@MatMarrash Год назад

16mm aka sub-miniature film can enlarge decently well when using slower, fine grain stocks. Using what's current today for motion stocks, 50D would handle single frames up to 3x5 ish prints with a bit of grain.

@jarhii Год назад

Hey Mat, been watching your channel for large format for awhile now. I'm pretty sure the 3d printed power adapter is the one I designed! I'm happy to see someone else got some use out of it, even temporarily. I also put together a 3D printed development tank, too. I have been meaning to send a message to the FPP crew in response to their recent 16mm episode, but haven't gotten around to it. You can find my "usable" results from developing and scanning all at home in some videos I have posted. Anyways, glad you found some use for it, and if anyone else is looking for tips on powering their arriflex, battery packs for RC cars have worked for me and will provide plenty of amperage and power for more time then you will need. All it really needs for the basic motors is somewhere between 8 and 12 volts DC, I think.

@MatMarrash Год назад

James thank you so much for making that file available and even though it was a stop-gap to a different power solution, it's a great backup to have! The Arri 16S isn't as power picky as later models, it really is all about having enough amps on startup (sometimes 3x normal current). I've also found out that there isn't too much over-current protection on these, the motors will just stop working. I don't want to give away too much more of where I'm at now with 16mm, but I've tried 4 different 3D printed 16mm tanks and none have managed to pass a test loading dummy reels. Starting to think I may have to find an old Morse or Lomo tank. Thanks again! :)

Hey Ammar, thanks for the comment and nice pickup with the U16 K3! Home development isn't something I'm ready to tackle quite yet, but there's still a few months to go in this 100th year of 16mm. Also in regards to your package, USPS did a number on it. They held it for a few weeks at the post office before releasing it, mainly because I didn't know the exact contents and they thought the bar soap in there was hazardous. So it took an extra-long while, but I got it! Thank you so much for the cyanotype printed shirts, original prints, and hand-made soap! This is going to be my go-to darkroom soap so I remember to wash up before returning home with "fixer fingers".

@Murgoh Год назад

Very interesting, I used to shoot Super 8 as a kid in the 70:s and 80:s and in the 90:s I did some "filming" on VHS and 8mm video camcorders. I'd love to shoot motion film again but unfortunately it costs a little more than I'm willing to invest on something I'd probably just try a few times. I do have 2 old Super 8 cameras of which one might be working still but film and developing is very expensive so I have not tried it. Unfortunately the nicer of my cameras, my farthers Yashica I used as a kid, is the one that does not run anymore (might be something simple like contact problems in the battery box though) and the working one is a rather toy-like and plasticky Bell & Howell a friend of mine found in the attic when he bought his house and gave to me. Still might be fun to try to get some film and try it, I'm pretty sure my mother even has the projector still in my childhood home. I'd love to try 16mm but can't justify the cost for myself as the equipment is not too cheap or plentiful here in Europe and film is kind of hard to come by. There are some Soviet Krasnogorsk cameras and some very old spring wound ones available for a somewhat reasonable price though. Double 8 might be the way to go though, cameras are very cheap and B&W film is also available at a reasonable cost. I guess I'll have to look into that.

@MatMarrash Год назад

Double 8 is another excellent option, and my buddy Mike over at the FPP is a big advocate of them. Paired with good glass, they offer a lot of economy and a very nice looking image.

Nice to see Matt discovering something a bit new to him. Just curious how many months it will be till Matt realizes he can get an animation motor to shoot single frames for his camera. This will give him tons of ability to capture single images. Just finding things like macro lenses may be a bit tough but then this gives one ability to photograph things such as many small plants on film and be economical. Now how would one sync a flash to the shutter when single frame operation?

@georgehind4651 Год назад

Looks awesome! Slight correction though: the NTSC standard is 30 (well, 29.97) FPS and applies to video, not film. 24 FPS is a worldwide standard for motion picture film

Thanks George! There's a lot I missed and wanted to cover in this first motion episode, but you've got to start somewhere. Somewhere I know my friends shooting 16mm cartridge film are screaming.

@michaelpetersenfilm Год назад

He was right to mention NTSC since when transferred to video through pulldown the correct 24 frames are maintained. In Europe we have PAL and everything is scanned at 25 frames so movies on TV ran slightly faster. NTSC Laserdiscs for example ran at the correct 24 frames.

11:50 NTSC is not 24fps. NTSC is 30fps (29.97) either in progressive scan (30p - actually, 29.97p) or interlaced (60i - actually, 59.97i). UHDTV standards theoretically bring basic frame rates to 50p (PAL) and 60p (NTSC), but most people even in broadcasting still shoot at 25p\50i and 30p\60i like they have always shot. 24p became more of a concern for home-video sets in the US because transferring movies shot on film at 24fps is trickier when you have to stretch them over 29.97 frames: while during the days of interlaced videotapes they could get away with it by doing a very tricky pull-down, the minute progressive-scan DVDs arrived, it became apparent that the only way was to add 24p as a secondary standard. Here in Europe we also have 24p but it was always less of a concern because PAL runs at 25fps.

does the 16s take ultra 16mm film?

@MatMarrash 7 месяцев назад

Hi Joe thanks for the question. The vast majority of Arri 16s cameras have a gate setup for Standard 16mm with the 4:3 aspect ratio. There are Super 16 and Ultra 16 modified cameras out there, but getting one converted today can be incredibly costly due to the tooling and labor required. And remember, the only difference in the film is Double Perf and Single Perf, the Arri 16s can take both!

Now it's time for you to start developing B&W 16mm Foma film in the darkroom ;) it's no big deal, but drying it is exciting, 100 feet of film in the roof to dry....

I've been trying to think of ways to make it work in my little closet of a darkroom! ;)

Admire your audacity, will you jump to 35mm or 70mm?

IF (and that's a big if) I do shoot something larger format for motion picture, it will very much be rental only, and with some type of budget that isn't just my bank account.
