Clairmont
Camera announces the birth of the Clairmont Baby Periscope. It was
designed to be much shorter than the existing Century 2000 Periscope,
and therefore, it can get into places that were not previously possible.
Like it's counterpart, it was designed to allow the user to extend
the lens away from the camera to get view pints that could not otherwise
be accomplished. It can be configured with a straight relay as well
as with a right angle attachment. At a right angle it is possible
to achieve shots that are actually above, below, to the right or to
the left side of the camera.
It
contains integrated focus and iris gears for use with follow focus
systems and iris control systems. It's linear iris markings make it
perfect for using with automatic iris systems. The iris "T"
stop range is T5.6 - T32. Setting the iris is simple. You set the
lens itself to wide open and make the iris setting directly on the
Clairmont Camera Baby Periscope iris ring. No matter which configuration
you use, there will be no light loss. Simply set your marks just as
your light meter indicates. Easy!
The
Clairmont Baby Periscope holds two 40.5 filters. It is available in
"PL" mount only and is compatible with all of the same lenses
that the Century 2000 Periscope accepts. The Clairmont Baby Periscope
measures 8 inches from the camera mount to the bottom of the prism
housing and weighs 4.5 pounds.

Camera Rental Department.
