hundreds of feet of film before the batteries have to be renewed
or recharged.
There are many makes of motion picture
cameras for both
16 mm and 35 mm film. The complete list is too long to give here,
but among those which are used for producing films for television
and industrial purposes are the following :
Akely 35 mm (not illustrated)
Auricon Pro 16 mm single or double system sound
Auricon Cine Voice 16 mm single system sound
Bell & Howell "70" Series 16 mm
Specialist 16 mm
Eyemo 35 mm
Eastman Kodak Cine Special 16 mm
Maurer Professional Camera 16 mm
Mitchell 16 mm Camera
35 mm Camera
Paillard Bolex 16 mm (not illustrated)
Pathe 16 mm (not illustrated)
Included in the list is some high-quality amateur and semi-pro-
fessional equipment which produces results every bit as good as
some of the Hollywood super equipment.
It will be noticed that some of the above cameras are listed
as sound cameras. Since the sound section is usable separately,
however, they
are included for discussion in the camera section.
Only the single system sound camera has a built-in sound head;
the others are picture-making devices only. Irrespective of the
make of camera, there is little difference among those in the same
price range. It does happen, however, that until the higher priced
models are reached, it is generally impossible to find one model
which includes every refinement desired: in other words, some
models have certain features, other makes have the other features
which the user may desire, but none of the cheaper cameras com-
bines them all. Probably the most complete camera in the low-
price silent range is the new Pathe. Not only does this camera
have all the features usually found in the professional camera,
but it has something not found in any other low-price model
