Introduction

3. General Description

System Overview

The system comprises the following components:

• The Singleframe Hand Control Unit SFHC-1 ➪ photo,

which facilitates setting all important parameters for

singleframe shots.

• The Integrated Capping Shutter (ICS), which ensures that

the camera is light-tight around the mirror shutter for a

period of approx. one hour for taking singleframe shots.

• The Singleframe Film Recognition Module ➪ photo,

which is used instead of the standard film recognition

module or the time code module to reduce the curvature

of the film loop.

• The Singleframe Software, which controls all singleframe

functions in the ARRIFLEX 435.

• The Slide-In Mask ➪ photo and the ICS-Guide ➪ photo

to modify the film gate.

• A light-tight cover ➪ photo for the pull-down claw

slits and the register-pin holes in the film gate.

Installation

4. Modifying the ARRIFLEX 435

for Singleframe Takes

First, check that a 26-pin socket is visible on the right lower

side of the camera, as this is necessary for singleframe takes.

If there is no socket, the camera must be modified by an

authorised ARRI service center.

4.1 General

Due to the design of mirror-reflex film cameras, stray light

may pass around the mirror shutter onto the film when the

camera is not running. For normal film shots this is not a

problem, as the affected images fall into the camera run-

up, which is usually not used anyway. On singleframe shots

however, the stray light which during interval time can fall

onto the film around the mirror shutter can affect the quality

of the exposed singleframes.

The ARRI Integrated Capping Shutter covers the film during

the interval time with a thin metal plate. The metal plate is

pushed into the film gate after exposure. Before the next

exposure the plate is removed.

4.2 Preparing

the Film Gate

To accomodate the movement of the pulldown claw during

film-transport, the film gate is designed with vertical slits

on both sides. Furthermore, there are two holes for the

stray light from reaching the film.

To enable the shutter plate of the Integrated Capping Shutter

to slide into the film gate, a special guide is inserted into the

film gate in place of the filter holder. The plate then slides

into this ICS-Guide. Due to the form of the ICS-Guide it is

necessary to use special format masks.

• Before removing the film gate turn off the camera’s main

switch and remove the camera from the power supply.

• Turn the knurled knob ➪ photo until its marking

matches that on the movement block.

• Turn the movement locking lever ➪ photo to the “OPEN”

position. This will cause the movement block to swing

away from the film gate.
