This 35mm motion picture camera was literally born a classic. Not through appearance alone ...but through function and performance! The very first Arriflex 35s, built in 1938, gave filmmakers un¬ precedented versatility, operating ease, technical ca¬ pabilities, and money-saving advantages... through a completely original optical system designed around a mirror-reflex shutter. One of the few genuine inno¬ vations in cine camera engineering since the days of Lumiere, Friese-Greene, and Edison . . . the mirror-reflex shut¬ ter is today's most desired and most imitated motion picture a classic in its own time! camera feature. It provides continuous throughthe-lens viewing while filming . . . eliminates parallax! And it all but antiquates an assortment of finder correcting gear most other cameras still require. Wherever film releases must meet the highest standards of theater-quality, Arriflex 35s are chosen. They’re lightweight, so they make ex¬ cellent newsreel and location cameras; rugged, so they can take extremes of climate; dependably precise under all conditions . . . ideally suited for every assign¬ ment from missile tracking to full-scale studio productions!

The Arriflex 35 is shown: as a hand camera (left), with 400-foot magazine, matte box, and 16-volt variable-speed DC motor; and as a studio sound camera, fully blimped with 400-foot magazine (center); and with 1,000-foot blimp (right).
