the film gate.
• Check that the film gate and the film gate shaft are
free of dust and dirt.
• Grasp the film gate by the ICS guide and place it from
above onto the film gate shaft.
• Check that the film gate is placed correctly on its shaft.
• Press the lever towards the magazine throat assembly
and flip the film gate back into its correct position.
• Ensure that the lever swings back fully.
Note: The film gate can only be locked if the format
mask and filter holder are correctly inserted.

the film gate is not correctly in place can cause
damage to the equipment!
4.3 Attaching the
Singleframe Film
Recognition Module
• The Singleframe Film Recognition Module is used
instead of the standard film recognition module or the
time code module to reduce the loop curvature.
On singleframe shots with the standard film end
recognition module or time code module, the
film curvature can cause unfocused images.
The Singleframe Film Recognition Module may
only be used up to max. 120 fps in normal
camera operation, as otherwise the camera may
switch off while running or damage the film.
