The website is in Germany for the camera I looked at earlier.
Me just thought Kino didn't mean a regular hand held 35MM camera.
Remember I'm a LID and You know how LIDs are don't You?

I'm sure that You met a few LIDs since You got Your Amateur Radio
Operators license.

I know of at least One Amateur that I feel is a bigger LID than I am.

I think I have already commented that a 35MM Motion Picture Film's
image size is "Single Frame", where our hand held 35MM cameras image is
"Double Frame, 24MM X 36MM".

It has been years since I threaded a 35MM Movie Projector, but I
remember something about the size of the Loop just after the film has
passed below the Lens mechanism(sp?) is very important to having the
sound track in sync with the projected image on the screen.

I think it was a "One Finger Loop".

I think when threading a 16MM Sound Movie Projector there was a Line
imprinted in the projector to show where to correctly  place the film.

And some of the 16MM projectors I've used threaded themselves
automatically by just turning on the motor and placing the film in the
slot on the top of the machine.

There wasn't any guideline on the 35MM Movie Projectors I used at the
Movie House to show how the Film should be threaded.

My friend who was a Projectionist there, invited me to come upstairs to
the "Booth" and taught me how to thread, check the carbons, frame the
film by looking at the image by sliding a part on the side of the lens
to make sure the correct count down number was in place, so when I
switched from one projector to the other the customers wouldn't notice
the changeover.

He got a salesman job at Sears Roebucks and told the man who owned the
Theater that He was quitting, and the boss asked me if I wanted the
job.
