ARRI ARRIFLEX 416 - Manual (Page 35)

.Magazines
Only the SHM-3 416 Shoulder Magazine 120/400 can
be used with the ARRIFLEX 416. Magazines from the
16 SR 1, 2 & 3 cameras are not compatible.
6.1 Loading the 416 Magazine
Loading the magazine should be practised in daylight with
a piece of waste film until the procedure can be carried out
confidently in a darkroom or film changing tent.
Cutting the film through the middle of the perforation holes
simplifies the loading process considerably. The film head
of a fresh roll of film is normally cut in this way.
Step 1: The Feed Side
Load the film into the feed side in absolute darkness
(darkroom or film changing tent).
• Remove the loop protector and lay the magazine on a
flat surface with its feed side door facing upwards.
• To open the door, flip up the locking grip, depress the
safety catch and turn it counter-clockwise a photo .
• Lift up the magazine cover and remove it by pulling the
cover to the right.
