ARRI ARRIFLEX 416
The 416 Camera System
The ARRIFLEX 416 cameras are complemented by a range of new and existing accessories that follow the same design philosophy used in the creation of the 416 body and magazines: increasing efficiency on the set.
Two handles have been designed: one for normal use, one for remote. These include such details as a flip-up tape hook and different height platforms for Steadicam and for under-slinging the camera on a remote head. Lens motors or lightweight follow focus units can be mounted on the camera left side with the help of the Left Rod Bracket LRB-2. Like the 235, the 416 cameras have extra 3/8" attachment points with locating pin holes for twist-free attachment of accessories or extra secure rigging.
The 416 cameras are compatible with most of the accessories used by their 35 mm siblings, including the ARRI Remote Control Unit RCU-1, External Display EXD-1, Wireless Remote System, Wireless Remote Control WRC-1 & WRC-2, Universal Motor Controller UMC-3, Iris Control Unit ICU, Electronic Synchronization Unit ESU, most follow focus units and matte boxes. They have also inspired some new accessories, including the Heated Eyecup HE-5, which automatically closes its iris when the operator is not looking through the viewfinder.
