A Last Haul for the Year

At  a certain point, everyone has to say, “I just can’t take on anymore stuff”. But this group of cameras was literally going to end up in the landfill, so it came here with the hope of having a new life. I don’t usually take in 16mm equipment, but this garage load of equipment belonged to an old friend and customer who recently passed away, so I couldn’t let that happen. All of these wonderful cameras are terribly abused. Some will be brought back to life, and for some, sadly this is their last stop. A couple of interesting pieces in the collection, including a Kodak Reflex Special that I had never seen before, along with an ARRI SR1, several ARRI Ss, an ARRI 16 BL, and an ARRI M. More on that in the future though. For now, just an overview shot of the whole collection before I take inventory of everything and sort out what can be saved.
