Pitch Adjustment
The camera is delivered with a transport claw pitch adjusted
to 4.74 mm (short pitch). With this basic setting, negative
film stock having a perforation hole distance within the to-
lerance range is transported smoothly and reliably by the
movement. If the film stock used differs from this perforation
distance, the movement can be optimally adapted using the
pitch adjustment mechanism.
It is recommended to establish the optimal pitch setting for
the film stock in use at a frame rate of 24 fps before begin-
ning filming.
• Attach a loaded magazine and thread the movement.
See “Attaching the Magazine, Threading the Movement”.
• Leave the camera door open.
• Run the camera.
• Slowly turn the pitch adjustment ➪ photo back and
forth until the quietest setting is reached.
