AH professional theatrical effects at your fingertips. Automatic warning buzzer if camera is started with shutter closed. * SPEEDS TO 80 FRAMES PER SECOND — A full scale of six speeds incorporating the exclusive Pathe 80 frame feature for extreme slow motion.

Lightest camera in its class. Priced at $395.00 Less Lens, No Excise Tax •••Father / Bernard R. Hubbard* Writes Father Hubbard: "In over twenty-five years of movie making, I have never had a camera more dependable under the most adverse climatic conditions. The Pathe '16' has withstood the roughest usage imagineable without once failing me. What I appreciate particularly is that with all of its features, it is lighter, smaller, and more portable than any I have ever used. I wouldn't be without my Pathe 16." FULL FRAME FOLLOW FOCUS A feature formerly restricted only to the professional cinematographers now available in the Pathe "16". You sight directly through the lens in use while it is in use! You can follow focus — you see when the subject moves out of the depth of field — you can achieve perfect composition — from titles to landscapes you know the exact limits of your field. Now no more out-of-focus pictures ... no more chopped heads ... no necessity for parallax correction — there is no parallax. All the advantages heretofore enjoyed by Hollywood's top cameramen are now made available to you by Pathe engineering. DIRECTOR PRODUCTS CORP. 570 FIFTH AVENUE, NEW YORK 36, N. Y. L.
