Dreamy new atmospheric UltraPan8 short film by Chris Boni

Post by Nicholas Kovats »

Local Toronto cinematographer, Chris Boni, has sent me a link to his new and haunting ambient film showcasing UltraPan8 2.8 R8. This is the first scanned example that showcases Chris's camera work and the recent modifications by Jean-Louis Seguin of the original 2011 camera prototype. The mods include a sumptuous 13x viewfinder, a more robust Bolex Bayonet Mount and a custom Cameflex to Bolex Bayonet Mount adapter. He also collimated the 5.9mm Angenieux lens (Cameflex mount) on his Bolex optical bench. Scan by John Gledhill of bitworks.org.

Great piece, Chris!
