7.2.2 Setting the Exposure Time
The shortest exposure time with a camera shutter angle of
180
°
is 1/8 second. All shorter exposure times are set by
adjusting the angle of the mirror shutter on the camera.
The ARRIFLEX 435ES is equipped with an electronically
adjustable mirror shutter. This enables the shutter angle to
be automatically adjusted for shorter exposure times by
the Singleframe Hand Control. On the Singleframe Hand
Control various exposure times can be set:
exposure times from 1/128s to 999s with an ARRIFLEX 435ES,
and exposure times of 1/8s to 999s when using an
ARRIFLEX 435.
If exposure times of under 1/8 s are required on an
ARRIFLEX 435, the shutter angle must be manually adjusted
beforehand (see Instruction Manual ARRIFLEX 435).
Note: On longer exposure times – over approx. one
second – the reciprocity behaviour of the film
becomes visible. This means that the film’s colour
reproduction changes. Further information is
available from the film manufacturers.
