Is NFL Films Still Shooting Film?

Just curious if anyone knows whether or not NFL Films is still shooting on film this season, as I've read that they have been considering a switch to HD video for all of their archival footage. I haven't watched much NFL football yet this season, so I haven't had too much of a chance to try spotting...

Question re. Beaulieu Quartz Module Adjustment

Hi all. Just curious if someone might be able to answer a question I have regarding the adjustment of a quartz module for use with a Beaulieu 6/7008 series PRO camera. I don't recall the entire process for setting the module to quartz speed, but I do remember that the last step is to turn the small ...

Thanks!

Anyone have Beaulieu 6/7008 Series Lenses for Sale?

Timecode Generators & Configurations for Sync Sound?

As a proud new owner of a Beaulieu camera with a 24 FPS quartz module, I can now entertain thoughts of shooting sync sound accurately. While the tried and tested slate and clapper is still a great method of providing audible and visual marks for synchronization reference, I'm interested in trying to...

Has Anyone Communicated with Bjorn Recently?

Early last week, I sent an email to Bjorn Andersson regarding service for my Beaulieu camera. Typically he replies very quickly, but I haven't received a reply yet, so I'm curious as to whether anyone has corresponded with him in the last week or so. Perhaps my email didn't get through for some reas...

Thanks so much for the tip, pinata2000. I called Procam this afternoon and ordered a couple of c-mount body caps and rear lens caps. The guy who I spoke with, who was very friendly by the way, mentioned that someone had called in earlier today and placed the exact same order...this must have been yo...

Pelican Case for Beaulieu 7008...

I'm thinking about buying a Pelican case for my Beaulieu 7008PRO, so I thought I'd see if anyone else with a 6/7008 series camera has a Pelican case for their camera, and if so, what size case do you have? Unfortunately, I don't know of any local dealers, so I won't be able to check out the case bef...

Question re. Beaulieu 6008 & 7008 Lens Control Units

While the lens control units, or LCUs, of lenses mounted on both 6008 and 7008 series cameras appear to be identical, can anyone verify that lenses built with LCUs for 6008 cameras can be used on 7008 cameras and vice versa? Or, are there differences that make the LCUs non-interchangeable?

Powering Beaulieu 6008/7008-Rechargeables Better than 6-AAs?

In my search for a spare AA battery holder for my Beaulieu 7008PRO, someone from a camera supply house mentioned to me that using rechargeables is superior to using the 6-AA battery configuration. I didn't quite follow his reasoning, but it was something along the lines of a more reliable intervalom...

Well, I called pro8mm, and they no longer carry the 6-AA battery holder for 7008 series cameras. I tried DuAll in NYC, but no luck there either. I'd call Chambless, but they're closed until early September. Unless anyone can think of any other potential sources in the USA, it looks like I may need t...

How do you Pronounce "Beaulieu"?

If I recall correctly, this topic was covered a long time ago, but a forum search yielded no hits. That said, I'm curious...what's the proper pronunciation of "Beaulieu"? Is it pronounced as "bell-you", "bowl-you", or something else?

Thanks!
