ARRI

Arriflex 35 BL3

The Arriflex 35 BL3 (BL-III), released in 1980, was the third generation of ARRI's blimped 35mm sync-sound camera line. It introduced the acoustically isolated PL mount, eliminating the need for separate lens blimps that earlier BL models required. It runs up to 50 fps and accepts 400 ft and 1,200 ft magazines.
