RE: Eclair ACL Using Aminima Loads in the ACL

[cinesota@yahoo.com]

It works perfectly. Like they were made for the ACL. Hmmm?

You need to have either a core plate or a core adaptor on your feed side 
because the Aminima load comes on a 2" camera core with removable 
plastic daylight flanges.  I chuck the daylight flanges because of noise 
concerns but you can leave them on if you like.  The Aminima load is 
rolled emulsion out which is perfect for the ACL 200' mag.  Check your 
manual and you'll see it actually specifies an emulsion out load for the 
200 footer.  Best part of the deal is that the Aminima load is single 
perf which means you can use 200' mags if your ACL is super 16 
converted.  Last I remember the old metal spool 200' loads were double 
perf (although Kodak may have since changed this).

If you buy some Aminima stock tell Kodak what camera you're buying it 
for and maybe they will come around and realize there is a whole other 
market out there.  They still specify the load as being for the Aminima 
only even though I've sent them emails trying to correct them on this.

Good luck!
