Re: More questions about my camera with pictures

Greg, Thanks for the registration.. It should show up in the listings soon. Your certificate should be sent to you within a few days. Also, thanks for the front shot. It is definitely a standard BNCR lens mount. The Panavision and Technivision markings made it possible that the mount might have been...

Re: More questions about my camera with pictures

Greg,

On further thought, could you send a straight-on picture of the lens mount with the cap removed?

Re: More questions about my camera with pictures

Greg, Nice package in what looks like very good condition. It was built in 1972. Basically you have 3 different setups. Things you should keep with the camera as a live shooting setup would be the mags, possibly one of the power supplies that may fit the Fries motor in box 1, any one of the lenses (...

Re: I need some advice on what to do with a Mitchell Camera

Greg, A few photos would help. You'll need them to sell anyway. Don't bother with the cases in pictures. Ken Stone has a few currently up for sale on EBAY which will give you an idea of how things may fit together. His listed prices range in the $1800 to $2200 range for decently serviced units. Putt...

Re: Mitchell BNCR 103

Thanks for the new pix. Was wondering about the pan-tilt head. I have a O'Connor 150 head supporting a full dressed out Arri 35 blimp but have hesitated to put the BNCR on it. I had a person in India searching for info on the camera but the Covid19 lockdown there stopped the effort for now. Stay saf...

Re: BNC #17 looking for any info

Gcoutts I have recently been engaged in making a prop camera for the inside of an empty blimp like yours. I have extra prototype and real parts that could be purposed for another. Are you interested in having a visibly convincing replica that racks over and has a readable shutter adjustment function...

Re: Mitchell BNCR 103

Thanks. Do you recall the contact for where the camera went? We are trying to build a database of all surviving Mitchells on this website as you can see from the index page selections. It is all about building a future awareness of these examples of precision film machinery that will never be seen a...

Re: Mitchell BNCR 103

Glenn, Thanks for the great info. To the best of your knowledge the viewfinder door was the original? That makes it one of the 42 factory built from scratch BNCR Mitchell cameras as opposed to the earlier and later conversions. did it have the front lens blimp for the 25-250 lens? My conversion has ...
