One of the reasons cinematographers and producers with demanding schedules choose to shoot Super 16 is the faster production pace afforded by smaller and lighter equipment. A Super 16 camera fits into any location, can be mounted to almost anything and can be quickly used on the shoulder. The 416 cameras further increase this portability, while providing many of the features crews have come to expect of 35 mm cameras.

The 416 weight has been reduced by an amazing 25% in comparison to the 16SR 3, when comparing a configuration including body, viewfinder, IVS and magazine. When comparing the 416 Plus to a 16SR 3 with UMC-3, the difference is even greater. The 416 cameras' shape has been designed to make them as compact as possible and to give them a low profile. At the same time shape and weight are perfectly balanced for comfortable shoulder operation.

A lot of thought has been put into the ergonomics of having to work quickly and safely on a film set. The new magazine, as well as the new on-board battery, can be swiftly removed with one hand. The cameras new front shape makes attaching lens accessories easier and faster.

For slow-motion sequences the 416 Plus HS runs up to 150 fps, while still using the same magazines as the 416 and 416 Plus. To avoid the clutter of extra boxes and cables, the 416 Plus and 416 Plus HS have lens motor electronics and a wireless radio directly integrated into the camera body.

Last but not least, there is the new split bridgeplate. The cameras can be removed from a zoom lens/tripod configuration in two quick steps: open the lens mount, split the bridgeplate and the camera slides off. The second assistant can then dismantle the zoom lens while the operator is already shooting handheld.
