Eclair ACL Arri Adapter



Hi, Les

I'm interested in an Arri to ACL adapter for my Schneider lenses. I noticed
that the ACL zoom adapter is a little larger in diameter than the Arri
mount. Isn't it easier to make an Adapter that we can place the Arri mount
lenses directly into the ACL zoom adapter?

 Subject: Eclair ACL ACL Conversions


 Hi All ,
 Over the past few days I've picked up a lot of speculation about my ACL
Conversion. I feel I should respond in my defence.
 Firstly , I've been a Camera Engineer since 1965 , possibly longer than
many of you have been breathing !

 I don't publish in minute detail exactly how I do my work , most people
trust my experience .
 If you needed an operation , would the Surgeon need to tell you EVERY
minute detail before you permitted him to operate , or would you ,maybe ,
trust his judgement ?.

 I can assure you , however , that the job I do IS Correct & I don't cut
corners .

 As to my price being too cheap , I can only apologise .
 I was under the illusion that you were poverty stricken as you use ACL's &
not the latest offering from Panavision .
 I also set my price to be in keeping with the initial value of the
camera.A $2000.00 job on a $1000.00 camera doesn't add up in my view.

 Please feel free to email me if I'm not charging enough.If I get enough
response I will happily increase my price by 50% , which is probably more
realistic , considering how much I put into the job.
 Most people & Companies around the World don't even ask the price if I do
something out of the ordinary for them .
     Come on guys , give me a break here , I'm trying to help you improve
your cameras , & leave you a few Bucks to buy some Film .

 Any other queries , feel free to contact me direct , rather than raising
uninformed speculation on the Forum

 Regards
 Les
