Aaton XTR Prod Super 16mm Camera
The King of Super 16: The AATON. The quietest, sharpest, most versatile s16 Camera system ever made. Not to knock the ARRI SRs, but trying to mount a 20 pound slab of German Studio Machine on your shoulder seems about as fun as shooting underwater with a trash bag and duct tape; yes, it can be done, but why not use a more elegant solution? With a built in color video tap and thread mounts built into the handle, this camera was waaaay ahead of it’s time and still the best choice for s16 today. The XTR Prod’s efficiency is also Top of the Pops, meaning that a single 12v NiMH battery can last up to 25 mags, meaning that a couple of them will last you through an afternoon shoot no problem. Pair that with a v-mount external display, a cinema mode Sekonic light meter and you’re moving scene to scene without dropping a beat. And let’s not forget the human touches: a real, reliable handle integrated into the top and a wooden trigger grip on your palm. Specifications• Lens port hard front: PL
