OPTICAL PRINTER OPERATIONS:<\/p>\n

The printer has gates for super 16mm and standard 16mm. Also it has 35mm gates. This means it can be set up for 16mm > 16mm copying, duplicating, positive from negative, 35mm > 16mm reduction copying, duping or printing to positive, 16mm to 35mm copying, duping, internegatives and positive blowups and 35mm > 35mm all of the above. Remember the internegative and interpositive Kodak stocks for conservation work (2234 and 2366) are only available on 35mm.<\/p>\n

It has a long bed geared travel which means it can reduce a 16mm frame significantly, almost too small to be seen. For instance this could be used to composite two 16mm frames into one 16mm frame or better into one 35mm frame.<\/p>\n

The lens is a Kinoptik Apochromat 1\/2 F=100mm (sn 1000288) which is extremely sharp and has a high lp\/mm of about 80+ at F8. The chart below doesnt have any specific provenance but I am looking into this.<\/p>\n

I also have a plate mount for Nikon F lenses of which I have a few so special uses can be made of these types of lens.<\/p>\n

Some success has been achieved using coloured gels to correct colour negative to colour positive on 16mm.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I have 400ft and 1000ft magazine for 16 and 35.<\/p>\n

I aso have a bi-pack magazine for producing hi-contrast pairs and special FX if anyone wants to explore these types of operations.Its a 35mm magazine and I am adapting it for 16mm as well.<\/p>\n
