The multipurpose grip system on the ARRIFLEX 435/435ES grip system guarantees highest stability through its fixed connection to the camera body and provides numerous possibilities for attaching accessories. Five 3/8" inner threads allow attachment in diverse positions ➪ photo.

Attaching Additional Handgrips Installation Additional handgrips can be screwed onto the grip system in various positions as required. A safety mechanism in the handgrip prevents automatic loosening. This mechanism is activated by screwing in the handgrips tightly.

Before screwing in the handgrips, make sure that the 3/8" threaded bolt is completely screwed out of the handgrip.

Removing the Grip System hexagon screws In order to minimize camera height, the entire grip system can be removed. • First remove the magazine. • Loosen both the hexagon screws ➪ photo in the strut and pull the grip system ➪ photo upwards.

To attach the grip system, proceed in the reverse order.

The brightness of the video image is automatically adapted to the given lighting conditions. This adjustment can also be carried out manually. The white balance is set to standard values for interior and exterior lighting situations.

The video camera CCD 2-FR is equipped with a GEN-LOCK input. This allows the video-assist-system to be synchronized to an external video signal.

In the standard configuration, the ARRIFLEX 435/435ES is equipped with a beamsplitter which reflects 20% of the viewfinder beam into the video camera (b/w video). A 50/50 beamsplitter (colour video) can be fitted in a service center.

The RCU-1 is a practical remote control unit for all new- generation ARRIFLEX , not only for the ARRIFLEX 435/435ES, but also for the ARRIFLEX 16SR 3, 535 and 535B.

It can be used in all applications that call for an uncom- Accessories plicated, quick, sturdy and yet still comprehensive remote control. An automatic mode enables synchronous control of running speed and shutter opening angle for automatic exposure compensation. Complete programs can easily be created to control changing of frame rate and angle of the mirror shutter over a certain period of time. These programs can be recalled repeatedly as necessary. The RCU-1 auto- matically calculates the actual screen-time for the program- med speed ramps. Running values can be regulated with the large handwheel. The free programming of end stops to individually defined minimum and maximum values is particularly comfortable. The illuminated LCD-display quickly, precisely and compre- hensively shows all set values as well as the status of the camera, or the RCU-1 respectively, including all warning signals.

External Synchronization The ARRIFLEX 435/435ES can also be synchronized to other Note: For external synchronization, both pieces of time code compatible equipment. For this it is necessary to equipment to be synchronized must be running plug an LTC-signal (longitudinal time code) into either the at the same speed.

“CCU”- or the “ACC”-socket. It is possible to use signals Time Code from a time code master clock, a time code recorder, a video recorder, another camera or a time code studio supply.

A suitably configured cable (available through an ARRI service center) and an LTC-signal level of > 500 mVpp are necessary.

If the time code cable with the correct LTC-signal is connected to the “CCU”- or “ACC”-socket, time code time and user bits will automatically be taken on by the camera.

Synchronization can be checked in Mode 4 on the camera display: when the LTC-signal is plugged in, a blinking “EC” (external code) will be displayed in the last two display digits instead of the time code frame rate. When the information has been correctly transferred, the display “CC” (code correct) will appear at the same position for 10 seconds. After this the time code frame rate will be displayed again.
