FUMEO EXTENDED ANAMORPHIC HOLDER FOR SUPER-8

One of the advantages of Fumeo over other film projectors manufacturers is the compatibility of parts and accessories between 16mm and Super-8 projectors. Thus, for example, the anamorphic holder of its Super-8 models is identical to that of the range of 16 mm halogens models. 


Recently, I installed a Meopta Corrigon f 1.1 12-5-25 mm lens on one of my Fumeo Super-8 projectors (the 9145 Xenon 500). Because this lens is so long, when opening the prime lens lens holder (of swing-open type),  prime lens would bump with the anamorphic. 

The solution was easy: I added an extended bracket for anamorphic, one of those designed for use with zoom in the 16mm halogen range, and the problem was solved.

Smart, Fumeo!!!
