The Arriflex 35 IIA, introduced in 1953, was an updated version of the original 1937 Arriflex 35 with a more robust steel film gate and improved 180-degree shutter. It used a three-lens turret with ARRI standard mounts and weighed 13 lbs. Over 17,000 Arriflex 35 cameras (IIA, IIB, IIC) were sold through 1979.
