Heres is an older oxberry camera block than the one mounted on my frankenstein optical printer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

This camera has no rack over viewfinder. It has a voltage controlled movement and adjustable shutter angle. No viewfinder seems like a problem for a camera. How on earth can you compose, focus, even see what you are shooting? This camera will be used as a camera for matte work where other plates (film elements) have been shot elsewhere by another camera. These plates are laced into this camera as if it were a projector. When the image is projected it will allow an image to be framed, traced, focussed. Once this is all done, raw film can be swapped in and composites shots can be exposed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It has a 35mm gate and sprocket movement. It also has a standard 16mm, 2 pin gate! Finally!!! All in all its in very fine condition. Some work will need to be done to get the electronic controls working. Heres a bit of double pef film in the gate. Of course, if I wish to shoot onto single perf stock I will need to remove one set of pins. But this gate would be better suited to copying, or duping by holding material on double perf film<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Heres some pictures of the prep for getting a lens onto the camera.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Nikon F plate held infront to check focal range.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a>
With a light source inside the camera (rotoscope mode) and a gate wth piece of film in we can project an image. Also check the Nikon F focal flange distance = 46.5mm <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n
\"\"<\/a>
The image is correct of course because we photograph work to conform to projection<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

All that is needed is to machine a block of alloy\/ali to fit the front machine bolt locations, put in a Nikon F bayonet mount, space and align the plate correctly and paint the inside black. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
