New Eclair ACL: half the size and half the weight! :/nc sound and silent running in a camera that weighs 8V2 pounds and is less than a foot long. I'en Nelson has made a short doc• umentary film with an ACL. "In ^ past, I've always looked around a place to rest the camera J:ween shots," says Mr. Nelson, 'ut with this new one, I found it i n't occur to me to put it down." With its 200 foot magazine i 1 without a lens, the ACL weighs <5 than 9 pounds and measures Iv^ inches from front to back. Half :','■ size of its competitors. Less :!inhalf the weight. i This is the most inconspicuo camera on the market. It's comptely silent, of course. Hand-held, i' much smaller and lower than y ir head, as you can see. The bat tery weighs about a pound and fits into your pocket. And the ACL is fast. You can change its clip-on magazine in less than five seconds. No threading; no need to touch the film at all. Film maker Eric Saarinen says: "This is the first silent camera that you can run with." The ACL has a crystal-control motor. Sync sound with no connection whatever between camera and tape recorder. Fantastic accuracy. Sync error is less than V2 frame in one con tinuous 200 foot take. That's 8,000 frames. What else? A universal lens mount that lets you use any lens with any mount. Extremely bright and precise reflex viewing, with a viewfinder that rotates 360 degrees. And a price that's considerably lower than the competition.
