Arriflex 35 IIC
The Arriflex 35IIC is one of the most popular and noteworthy cameras in motion picture history. It played roles in the filming of all three of the original Star Wars films, A Clockwork Orange, Enter The Dragon, The Big Lebowski and The Fifth Element, among countless other films. It was highly favored by Stanley Kubrick, who used one on virtually every one of his films.
Introduced in 1964, the 35IIC updated the previous 35IIA and 35IIBV models. It featured an improved pull-down claw, a better ground glass that could be removed by the user and a better viewing system with detachable eyepiece. Like previous 35II models, the 35IIC was mechanically very simple and therefore extremely reliable. The 35IIC has no internal electronics and is powered by external sources. The film magazines atop the camera contain the film sprockets in the magazine's throat as opposed to the camera body, making these cameras very simple and very fast to load.
Despite being succeeded by further versions of the Arriflex cameras, the 35IIC is still widely in use today.
