Make a movie!
Yes, you too can make a 16mm motion picture, albeit a silent one. I just put my own personal Arriflex 16S package on eBay and you are welcome to buy it. It's an awesome camera, but I really don't use it that often, preferring to work with my (and Mike's) CP16/R's, which are self-blimped and therefore silent enough for shooting narrative films with dialog (such as synthetic conversation).
The Arriflex 16S, on the other hand, sounds like a blender on "chop." But the CP's don't have the rock-steady pin-registered movement that the Arriflex does. Ah, tradeoffs.
You know, Robert Rodriguez shot El Mariachi on a 16S and just dubbed all the dialog after the fact. You could do that, too, I guess. I just don't want to.
Anyway. Bid away. Bid high. Make movies. Have fun.
