Eclair Cameras: shooting 24 fps - flicker on test roll



Hi all,and thanks for all the help on the flicker problem,i recieved the new test footage back on monday and its perfect rock solid and flicker free,i wired the battery i used for the first test to a small voltage meter and although it was giving me a 12 volt reading, when under load it was dropping below 9.8 /9.5 volts so i replaced the batery with a freshly charged one giving bags of power, under load
it was a consistent 12.8 volts, re-shot the test same lights redhead
800 watts and some exterior stuff and the results are great, i have now shot the full sequence which is to be cut into a digi beta program so as long as i got the shots i need,the super 16 acl full kit will be up for grabs in the new year list of kit below. 1 - super 16 acl body with 25fps motor and cinema products s16 ground glass
