We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

you change the NPR's magazine in five seconds and you don't touch the film. Snap off the old magazine, check the aperture, snap on the new magazine. That's all. No threading; no loop to form; no blimp to climb in and out of. You don't need to touch the film at all. The film is threaded and the loop is formed inside the magazine when you load it, before shooting starts. The rear pressure-plate is on the magazine, the aperture is on the camera body. When you snap off the magazine, there's the aperture, right before your eyes. Couldn't be easier to clean. With unscripted action that won't wait, you can leave the tape recorder running when you run out of film, and cover the lost five seconds with a cutaway later. The NPR's built-in clapper and sync-pulse will automatically re-establish sync. In the studio with a script, the five-second magazine change can prevent everyone on set going off to make a phone call when they hear the dread cry: "Reloading." With the NPR, it's just another take. Immediately. The NPR's rotating two-lens turret, precise reflex viewing, light weight, registration-pin movement, balanced shoulder-resting and, of course, its blimp-free silence — they all make life easier, too.
