Do they look different?
These are just serial numbers.
Like all Mitchell cameras, there was a wide selection of motors available:
4 types of Synchronous motors including multi duty, interlock or straight synchronous in 96v-220v, AC/DC, single or 3 phase and 50hz or 60hz versions; A variable speed motor in either AC/DC or 110v 50 or 60 hz and a High speed motor for the prepared camera that was variable up to 128Fps.
There were a few 16(pro)HS conversions and purpose built cameras with motors capable of 400fps.
As a general rule, if it has a tachometer on it, it is variable and the voltage and HZ should be marked somewhere on the motor. The straight forward common synchronous motor will have a seperate starter relay box.
Check back in about a week to our camera serial number tab as we are in the process of adding a graph for 16 pros to give you a year your camera was produced. We would encourage you to also register your camera.
Thanks for the enquiry, hope this helps.
