For sometime I have been experimenting with finding a way to use my 35mm scope lens that I acquired on one of my 16mm machines.
I have utilised the existing scope arm on the Eiki,removing the ring attachment which holds the normal size scope lens.
By fixing a large “o” ring on the 35mm lens and attaching a small metal bloc with holes in to attach it to the projector scope arm I can use my 35mm lens.Once in place the 35mm does not move but it does not impead the gate opening.
This picture shows the machine without and scope lens with grey scope attachment.
This one with the Sankor scope 16mm in place using grey attachment.
This one with the 35 Cinelux lens in place using homemade attachment.
To be fair the actual picture screened using the 35 comes out I think slightly sharper and somewhat clearer but it’s down to the viewer opinion.
I guess I just wanted to use the lens…
