ARRI ARRIFLEX 416 - Manual (Page 57)


 
Inching
The camera can be inched by pressing the “PHASE” button
while the camera is in Standby. If the “PHASE” button is only
pressed briefly, the mirror shutter rotates a part revolution
to enable an unrestricted view of the film gate (e.g. for
checking the gate). If the “PHASE” button is held pressed
longer, the camera will inch forward at approximately 1 fps.
During inching the upper line of the display indicates the
measured shutter angle, the lower line the measured
voltage of the power supply.
While inching, the camera speed is not exactly
controlled. As this can cause faulty exposures,
do not film while inching.
