Comparison Of Movie Cameras

The modern era of 35 mm cameras dates to the 1970s, when Arri's Arriflex 35BL and Panavision's original Panaflex models emerged as the first self-blimped, lightweight cameras. Another distinguishing characteristic of modern cameras is the adoption of stronger lens mount seatings secured with a breech lock - namely the Arri PL and PV mount, both of which were designs descended from the BNCR mount of Mitchell cameras.
