Re: [Frameworks] Looking for camera repair

Weird. The two I have are slightly different, but both are tethered to the case in the same way. With the screws removed is the mechanism loose within the case or still solidly attached? I'm not a camera technician so I don't recommend prying with a screwdriver, but it has worked for me. On T

Already tried it. Screws, knob, meter reel and all. Something else is keeping it grounded to the body.  On Tuesday, May 26, 2020, 4:32:07 PM EDT, Todd Eacrett wrote: #yiv3824402774 p.yiv3824402774MsoNormal, #yiv3824402774 p.yiv3824402774MsoNoSpacing{margin:0;} In addition to the three

Re: [Frameworks] Looking for camera repair

I was abe to loosen the bolts that held the camera mechanism in place, but was unable to get the mechanism out. There was still something holding it on there. I didn't want to take any chances by forcing it, so I put everything back in place. If someone out there has the ability and tools to re

[Frameworks] Looking for camera repair

Hello All, I'm currently on the lookout for anyone who could make some repairs to a 35mm Devry Lunchbox camera. The gears appear to have ceased up and the mechanism won't comet of it's casing when unscrewed. Any help is appreciated.  M ___ FrameWorks ma

Re: [Frameworks] Looking for camera repair

In addition to the three screws on the back of the case, you need to remove the shutter release knob and the footage counter (top of the case). The latter has a spring washer under it, so don't lose it. The mechanism should slide/wiggle out as one unit, but if the case is bent or dented it coul

Re: [Frameworks] Looking for camera repair

When was the last time it got a PM? It likely just needs to be completely torn down, cleaned, and lubricated. The DeVry is very easy to work on... way easier than an eyemo. Any cine tech should be able to do it, but be aware that it is still time-consuming. DuAll is nice if you're convenient to

Re: [Frameworks] Seeking 2 Archival, Public Domain Images

Hey Ken (and everyone), Have you checked out archive.org? Searchable collection of multiple forms of media, many of which are public domain or have CC license info. Lots of educational films, PSAs, and the like. I did a quick search for “beat poetry reading” and it brought up quite a lot. Hope

[Frameworks] Seeking 2 Archival, Public Domain Images

I've been scouring the internet and archival footage archives for two public domain moving images for a grant sample. One is of a woman (ideally) devouring food with abandon (about 15 seconds) and the other is of a beatnik poetry reading or someone reading poetry (15 seconds). Such images in a c

Re: [Frameworks] EIKI slimline 16mm projector query

As I understand things, you'd have less torque on a larger diameter hub. Think of a pencil and wrapping film on that, it would be like a gear, and easily wind the material with minimum effort. A large hub, like a large gear, would need more effort to wind anything. Anyway, physics of take up

Re: [Frameworks] EIKI slimline 16mm projector query

A bigger hub does help, but the heavy takeup reel is also taking up better because takeup is designed to increase tension as the reel gets heavier. If there is only adequate tension at the start using a heavy reel, you’ll probably have less than you need by the end of the reel - especially if a pri

Re: [Frameworks] EIKI slimline 16mm projector query

The heavy takeup reel isn't taking up better because it's heavy, it is taking up better because the diameter of the center hub is larger. Just fix it. --scott ___ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com
