Hi!

Researching for my next project.
Was wondering if anyone had experience shooting stop-motion on Arriflex SR3.
How did it go? What extra equipment (like ECU ets) did you use?

Thanks!

You would have to look into the tech specs but if i recall correctly the SR' could not do single frame on their own. You would have to get a chip installed from cinematography electronics and use their controller. IS that what you meant by your question?

Thanks Tim,

yes, that's what I kind of meant by the question.
Do you know if the chip is the only way to make SR3 work for animation?

Norris was/is a company that made an intervalometer with a lens capping device. I haven't seen one in some time and am not sure if they made one for the SR, but it may be worth some searching.

Thanks!

Called Arri Media last week - they offered help once again - they've got an intervalometer for SR3 with 1 frame capability.

I can propose of other ways.
1. Kinor-16 SX-2M camera, upgrade of original motor on motor with time lapse.
(I can do this upgrade.)

2. any other 16 mm cine camera, like russian studio 16 mm 16SK-2, with registration pin, DC motor, and to upgrade of motor control on crystal sync speed conrtol with time lapse.
( I can do this upgrade ).

3. Any other 16 mm mechanical cine camera with signle shootin mode :
Krasnogrosk-1,2,3, Kiev-16 U, Alpha-16.
But, all of this cameas do not have of registration pin and value of frame stobilityy do not high from value of profesional cine cameras with registration pin.
