" CINE-KODAK K-100 CAMERAS • This instruction manual is for the CineKodak K-I00 Camera and the Turret Model. On the turret model you can mount three picture-taking lenses with matching viewfinder lenses - thus allowing you to change quickly from wide-angle to medium to telephoto shots. The Cine-Kodak ~-100 Camera has a single taking lens and viewfinder lens. Any of the lenses, Ifimm to I52mm with C mounts, can be used. The cameras use either single- or double-perforated Ifimm film.
The Kodascope Pageant Sound Projector, ac or de, 105 to 125 volts, has a capacity of 2000 feet of film. It operates at both sound and silent speeds. An accessory microphone plugged into the amplifier enables you to narrate your silent movies and to use the Pageant as a public address system. The Kodascope Analyst Projector, 60-cycle ac only, can project movies in normal fashion on a screen and also in natural light on its own built-in screen.
,II .It load the camera Remove the empty take-up spool. Unroll about two feet 01 film from the. new spool and place the spool of film on the SUPPLY SPINDLE, square hole down. Follow the film path as shown by the red lines and arrows on the plate. Push the film down and, at the same time, pull it forward to engage the FILM SPROCKET teeth in the film perforations. The take-up spool turns in the direction of the arrow shown on the camera.
1"I hand crank The Cine-Kodak K-IOOCamera can be hand-cranked either forward or reverse for special effects. No more than two feet of film should be reverse wound at a time. This is accomplished by use of the Cine-Kodak K-IOO Hand Crank. See your Cine-Kodak dealer. electric motor drive The camera is adaptable to electric motor drive by using the Cine-Kodak K-IOOMotor Drive Shaft available from your Cine-Kodak dealer.
set the speed dial The speed dial can be turned until anyone of five speeds (16, 24, 32, 48, or 64 frames per second) is opposite the index mark. For normal screen action, when using a silent projector, use the 16 frames per second speed. Film to be run at sound speed should be exposed at 24 frames per second.

Tri-X Reversal is a very fast black-and-white film particularly suitable for commercial, television, industrial, and athletic photography where adverse lighting conditions are frequently encountered. Cine-Kodak Negative Films Plus-X Tri-X The use of these black-and-white films results in a negative from which positive projection prints can be obtained. They are intended for processing by independent commercial laboratories or by the user.

animation by single-frame exposures One of the most absorbing fields made possible by your camera is animation-the movie method of breathing life into inanimate objects. You may wish to try the simpler type where chessmen play their own game, and books, ash trays, etc., roam around over a table top. Or you may be sufficiently fascinated by the almost limitless possibilities of animation to try your hand at the more complicated types.
unloading and care of exposed film NOTE: It is extremely important that the film perforations be engaged by the pulldown. Check again to see if the film is properly located in the film channel and follows the red lines so that correct loops, which are also important to the functioning of the camera, are formed. Then inspect the pressure plate to be sure it is seated correctly with respect to the film and the film channel.
making exposures With the spring motor fully wound, about 40 feet of film can be exposed. If several consecutive scenes must be photographed, be sure to wind the spring when the spring motor dial indicates that the motor will run about 5 to 10 feet of film. However, it is best to wind the spring after each scene. In this way the camera is always ready for use. To start the motor, push the exposure lever downward. To stop, release the lever.

For correction when filming a subject 2V2to 7 feet from the camera, with the 25mm lens, note the position of the reference cross with respect to some point on the subject. Then move the camera so that the middle cross is at the position previously occupied by the reference cross. The camera is now in position to photograph the field previously outlined by the mask.
When replacing a finder lens, insert the lens into the lens retaining mount so that the stud on the lens mount fits in the slot in the lens tube; then tighten the retaining collar. lenses J; " correction for close-ups Because the finder and the taking lens are separated, they do not always cover the same area and slight compensations are necessary when filming subjects very near the camera. To simplify framing for closeups, three crosses have been placed within the finder REFERENCE CROSS 2'12 FT.
the viewfinder focus Check the focusing scale before each scene is photographed. The scale setting must correspond to the camera-to-subject distance. Accurate focusing is particularly important when making close-ups. When the subject is four feet or less from the camera, measure the distance carefully to the small metal boss with the ¢ on the camera cover. This marks the position of the film plane. To focus, turn the front lens collar so that the subject distance is at the index.
