We are very excited to announce another superb addition to our pool of film cameras, the Aaton Digital PENELOPE! In excellent condition, this camera is silent, lightweight, easy to use handheld and offers sync-sound and, crucially in this digital age, a timecode option. Thanks to the possibility of switching between 3-perf and 2-perf, this is a great affordable option if you would like to shoot on 35mm. Check out our product page [bit.ly/3bRUqvZ] for more info. If you’d like to familiarize yourself with shooting on 35mm (or 16mm) cameras we offer a great and comprehensive workshop as well. For more information, check out [bit.ly/2OHHEHt]!

This is the standard for using the ARRIFLEX 416 with an additional power supply. Our friends from @elokuvakonepaja were able to create an adapter for our ARRIFLEX 416's so that it can used with an extra battery. No more fiddling with adapter plates and cables. The adapter changes the volt from 12 to 26 and it comes with a D-Tap and Lemo 2pin port on the side. In the future this will also become available for the ARRIFLEX 235 and the ARRICAM LT. We'll keep you updated!

Following the updated Covid-19 regulations that the government has set for Amsterdam we have updated our guidelines for coming to and working in our office. Besides the mandatory 1.5m distance and disinfecting of hands before entering the work floor, from now on we kindly ask you take the following into consideration: - Wearing a face mask is compulsory in the entire office. You can remove your mask while sitting down or while testing in one of our testbays. - One person per testbay is strictly enforced. Larger tests will be split over multiple bays. - We aim to divide testing into a morning and afternoon shift, in order to make sure we do not exceed the maximum amount of people in the office. - Disposable face masks will be provided if you do not have your own. ... and we still have great coffee! ☕ Any questions about coming to the office, your shoot or you just wanna chat? Call our office or send us an email!
