RE: Eclair ACL Super 16mm and 35mm

[valexander@stan.csustan.edu]

Hi, Mark

I appreciate the advice on the Schneiders. It will be more efficient for me
to get an adapter for the Arri lenses that I already have. I have the
standard 28-50-75mm Schneiders for the Arri 2c. I'll just have to get me a
10mm Schneider for the wide shots and I should be fine as far as primes for
the ACL are concerned. I'll probably test the Angenieux against the
Schneiders anyway. If there's a vast difference in sharpness, I'll put them
up on eBay.

Cordially

Vic

PS: I enjoyed the discussion on Super 16 vs... 35mm that a few of us have
been posting. Thanks to everyone for your response to my original enquiry.

 There are two kinds of Arri-S adapters for the ACL. One screws into the
C-mount thread, the other into the outer threads of the flange (similar to
the CA adapter). The latter is preferable. Even though I haven't ever done a
comparison against Schneider lenses, from what I hear they should be vastly
superior to the Ang primes. Mark.
