Turning Camera Power On

The Power On button for the ARRIFLEX 416 is located above the RUN button on the camera right side. To turn
the camera On, briefly press the Power On button. When a battery is connected to the camera and the power
switch is turned on, you should see characters appear on the Display on the camera left side.
Note: The camera remembers the status of the Power On button and restores this status after a power interruption.

Camera RUN

A RUN button is located on both sides of the camera. To run the camera, press the RUN button briefly. The
RUN indicator light will glow red while the camera comes up to speed, changing to green once the set frame
rate is reached. The RUN indicator light will glow steadily green while the camera runs at the set frame rate.
To stop the camera, briefly press the RUN button again. If the RUN indicator glows red while the camera is in
Standby, the camera is not ready and pressing the RUN button will have no effect.

Inching

The ARRIFLEX 416 cannot be manually inched – it can only be inched by pressing the PHASE button while the
camera is in Standby. If the PHASE button is pressed briefly, the mirror shutter will rotate 180º to allow for gate
checks. To move the mirror shutter back into viewing position, press the PHASE button again briefly.
