ARRI 416 Manuel D’Utilisation

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.

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

Load the film into the feed side in absolute darkness

flat surface with its feed side door facing upwards.

•  To open the door, flip up the locking grip, depress the
