July, 1929 The INTERNATIONAL PHOTOGRAPHER Eleven BELL& HOWELL ^Achieve the Zero of Silence in Sound Recording Cameras 1 \0 camera booth — and the "mike" ten feet away! Only the precision and scientific design of a Bell & Howell Silent Standard Camera would permit of such an arrangement. Sound pictures have wrought great changes in the movie industry, but they have not affected the mobility of Bell & Howell Cameras. 1000-foot sound-proof magazine -with silent belt tension equalizer used on Bell & Howell Silent Standard Cameras Silent fiber gears alternate with steel gears. Solid bronze and hardened steel bearings are used, tight yet free-running. Camera interior and shutter blades are sound-proofed with felt. Special magazines are sound-proofed through alterations in inner parts and outer sponge rubber covering. Film take-up is automatically controlled by silent belt tension equalizer. For 22 years Bell & Howell have kept just a little ahead of the game. When "talkies" came we were ready. We shall be glad to consult with you on any phase of sound-recording installations.
