Arriflex SRII HS

The SR family of cameras were the best cameras you could get for the Super-16 format. This format was the regular 16 mm widened to be directly coverable to HD. Arri SRII had several advanced features like a very quiet film advance (Silent Reflex) engineered in Germany by Arri Munich. The viewfinder also could be rotated around to provide the most convenient viewing angle. The viewfinder had a rotating Schmidt Pechan prism that rotated the image to always keep it horizontal. The high speed version (HS) could shoot at 150 frames per second, and 200 f/s with modification done by some camera tech shops.

Arri SR is an easy to use camera, specially its hand grip, and the eyepiece angle that are so well placed, and are completely adjustable.
