Ulti-Head at Panavision
|
At the request of freelance motion control operator/director Jay
Mallet we took the Ulti-Head to Panavision UK to try it out with
Panavision cameras and lenses and run a few tests. Here are a
couple photos showing the afternoon which proved a good success
with everyone who saw it. |

Bolex Camera Video Assist
Mark Roberts Motion Control is nearing completion of its new Bolex 16mm
camera video assist. The colour video assist allows the camera, which is
very popular with 16mm animation companies as well as other
applications, to be used without having to look through the viewfinder
or more importantly to be used with popular video disk recorders to see
reviews and previews of shots being taken by the film camera. The video
assist is bright enough to be used in fairly low light levels or small
apertures setting it far above other video systems. It is fully
integrated into the camera so no alignment or setup is required every
time it needs to be used. Additionally it can be easily switched from
using the video assist or looking through the viewfinder so the
viewfinder remains totally useable. If you would like further details on
this important development please let us know
