ARRI

ARRIFLEX 16SR

The Arriflex 16SR, introduced in 1975, was the first truly quiet 16mm reflex camera designed for sync-sound production. It featured coaxial magazines, on-board batteries, fiber optic viewing screens, and a multidirectional viewfinder. Over 5,100 units were built across the SR, SR2, and SR3 variants before being replaced by the Arriflex 416 in 2006.
