Moviecam Compact

The Moviecam Compact is a modular 35mm motion picture camera designed by Austrian engineer Fritz Gabriel Bauer and introduced in 1990. It supports 4-perf and 3-perf pull-down with Super 35 coverage, features a microprocessor-controlled motor with crystal-accurate variable speeds, and a balanced center of gravity for handheld and Steadicam work. It received a Scientific and Engineering Academy Award in 1993. ARRI acquired Moviecam in the late 1990s and incorporated its technology into the ARRICAM line.
