1 mm) to the lower side of the ground glass, right until it slightly appears in the viewfinder. The performance can be improved, glueing a small stripe of adhesive black tape (ca. The meter got much less reliable and lost it?s unique bottom-weighted characteristic. The light meter of the 7008 changed, using other types of photo diodes, because the original diodes of the 6008 were discontinued. The power consumption was slightly decreased. The LED counter was replaced with a double LCD counter for frames and footage. Then the 7008 came out, integrating all the 6008 tunings in a new model. A special "Multispeed" model allowed to shoot all framerates even with sound film and a second mains interruptor allowed to memorize the counter read out for the next scene. Therefore several tunings were offered for the 6008: They created a "MD" version with a real ground glass near the gate and a digital 4-digit frame counter to produce exact overlapping double exposures on sound film. Sound cardriges only could be run with 18 or 24 fps or single frame, no time lapse or slow motion. The result were a "floating" image and difficult focus setting as in all other S8 cameras. The original body came without ground glass, only with a matt spot in the viewfinder gass (not even near the film gate, really inside the viewfinder). Between individual models there are differences in amount of noise, but it is not important if it is a 6/7/or 9008.Īll are really based on the original 6008 model. Indoor shooting is only possible with mike as distant as possible to the camera. It?s too loud to shoot indoors with mike fixed to the camera. Just send me a short email and I will answer you what I found out.Īll provide the same amount of noise. Concerning the manual, I don?t know if they have one in English, in German for shure. Zoom stick and manual: I actually don?t know, that the zoom stick has to be female! I can ask for one at Bavaria. So, considering the high film prices, I think you should get the best possible out off the stock, and this is only possible with a very good tool. Sound-syncing is easyly possible with the in-built flash contact (s-version), or with the pro-version, which is crystal controlled.
For low light situations, the shutter can be opened and you have one stop more light (about 1/60 s).įor fades, the shutter can be closed totally. The movements in the projected result look like made with any prof. Each frame is sharp and could be used for producing a still (exp. The "normal" position of the shutter, together with 24fps, results in razor-sharp films without wiped movements. Consumer cameras need about 50% of the light for viewfinder and meter! So 100% of the light is lead to the film and no quality reducing XL shutter is neccessary. Its the only camera, which DIRECLY exposures the film surface, without any prism etc inbetween, thus providing the best possible image quality and brightness. A fix-bottom allows you easy spot measuring. With the film speed dial, you can fine-adjust the auto-exposure in 1/3 stop steps. Most consumer cameras only set the film speed to 40 or 160 ASA. The film speed can be regulated manually to any old or new or new to come film stock, which I consider to be very important nowadays. The price must not be such significant high, you can order one for 1498,00 EURO at Īnd bypass the extreme high camera prices in the US. It?s one of the very few cameras which allows ground glass focussing and this will reduce not-sharp, discarted footage extremlyĪnd so reduce film costs (my expierience). For using c-mount power lenses, the camera connection can be changed to the "special" version (like 4008, 5008).
BEAULIEU 7008 MANUAL
Any manual c-mount lens or Beaulieu-mount power lens can be adjusted to that camera and will work perfectly after colimnating it.
BEAULIEU 7008 FREE
You have the free choice what lens you would like, while you have be happy with the inbuilt lens other cameras come with. Considering the potential of that camera, I don?t think that it is too expensive.
