if you can rotate it some it may stop at the trigger assembly. this has to be removed to unmount the lens due to the reglomatic motor assembly.

I worked on someone's film school project way back in the 80's and they were using this camera. It was either the 3008 or the 5008. It had the sound record head in it and shot at 18 & 24 frames per second, and I think it did single frame as well.

One relatively minor complaint I had was I didn't really like the strobiness when someone walked from left to right or right to left at the 18 frames per second speed. It probably had to do with the shutter angle.

Other than that, I think the lens comes off and it's a cool camera with good optics, assuming the lens has been collomated.

Do the turrets turn along with the lens?

OK, thanks. Got the lens of.

The main reason I want it of, is because the whole lens was jiggely. Now I see that the camera-part of the c-mount, seem to a bit loose. I can move it a millimeter in all directions. There must be some way to fasten it, but I tought I'd check before I dug into it.
