The Automatic, Variable Shutter
Opening System
Professional moviemaking touches, such as
automatic and manual fade-ins and tade-
outs, are possible with the Autop ak-B 010,
and no other. New cinematic expressions,
such as simultaneous zooming and fading,
or simultaneous fading and single-fr ame
title or animation filming, are now as easy
to accomplish with the 010 as conventional
filming is with other
cameras,
The combination of the D10's 7 filming
speeds and its exclusive variable rotary shut-
ter opening system gives you a variety of
unconventional filming advantages. One key
advantage is a choice of a wide number of
exposure times, or shutter speeds.
The exposure of an 8mm movie camera is
commonly determined by the relationship of
its aperture to the rotary speed of its shut-
ter changeable with the frame speed. But
there are great limitations to this system,
because the exposure time (or shutter speed)
must
change when the frame speed changes.
This leaves the photographer little, or no,
creative
choice.
With the Autopak-B 010 you can change the
opening of the rotary shutter from a full-
open 160· to a full close at O", or to two
stops (80· and 40·) in-between. What this
means is that changes of exposure time are
possible
without
changing the frame speed.
The result of this system is a choice for you
of 10
different exposure times
under normal
010 filming conditions. And 5
additional
ex-
posure times
when the Hi-Speed Power Pack
is attached to the camera.

Ultra High-Speed Filming
With the Minolta Hi-Speed Power Pack at-
tached to the 010, you can achieve incr edib-
Iy fast shutter speeds: up to 1/450 second.
This speed, which gives unusual slow motion
effects when projected at the standard
speed of 18 fps, is accomplished by setting
the shutter sector at 1/4 open while filming
at 50 frames per second. Use of this ultra
fast shutter speed is especially valuable for
scientific and educational films, for filming
sports scenes, physical impacts, the habits
of wildlife and other phenomena for minute
analysis.
