Safety Speciﬁcations

• When transporting the camera, make sure that the sliding door securing the ﬁeld lens is all the way down.

• In order to ensure optimal performance, it is essential that you acquaint yourself with this Quick Guide

and that you follow the operating instructions described herein. We strongly recommend that you also

acquaint yourself with the full 535B instruction manual.

• Assembly and initial operation should only be carried out after carefully reading the instructions and

familiarizing yourself with the equipment and the assembly procedures!

• Use only original ARRI accessories and replacement parts!

• Clean optical surfaces only with an optical brush or a clean optical cloth! In cases of solid dirt, moisten an

optical cloth with pure alcohol (or brand-name lens cleaner).

• Do not use solvents when cleaning the ﬁlm path!

• When adjusting the mirror shutter, turn the camera off and remove the power cable. Accidentally running

the camera while adjusting the mirror shutter can cause great damage.

• Do not unscrew any screws which are sealed with locking paint!

• Never run the camera without a lens or a protective cap in the lens mount receptacle.

• Never place your hand in the lens cavity or the inside of the camera while the camera is running!

• Never open the movement or gate locking mechanism while the camera is running!

2. Loading Coaxial Magazines

Arriﬂex 535B Quick Guide, 7/97a, Page 6

Always make sure that a loop protector is on the magazine when it is not on the camera. Also make sure

that the magazine opening cover is on the camera when no magazine is attached to the camera. To learn

how to load the light weight magazine LM-1, refer to the 535B manual.

Step 1: The Feed Side

Load unexposed ﬁlm only in absolute dark - such as in a dark room or changing bag.

• Take the loop protector off.

•Press the safety button on the feed side door and ﬂip the magazine door lock up. Turn it counter clockwise

until it stops and remove the door. Place the door with the interior face down beside the magazine.

• Flip up the hinged clip on the feed shaft.

• Remove the ﬁlm from the ﬁlm container.

• Remove the tape from the ﬁlm end. Make sure that the tape is completely removed.

• Place the ﬁlm roll on the magazine door.

•Guide the ﬁlm head into the opening and carefully push it further until you feel it emerging from the upper

magazine throat opening. If the ﬁlm cannot be pushed through easily, employ the threading aid by

ﬂipping it up and then turning it counter clockwise to advance the ﬁlm.

Note: Ensure that the threading aid is ﬂipped back into position. Otherwise it can cause noise.

• Now place the ﬁlm on the feed shaft and push the ﬁlm core down as far as it will go, without pressing on

the ﬁlm itself. The ﬁlm will otherwise become conical and cause noise.

• Flip down the hinged clip to lock the ﬁlm core on the feed shaft.

• Put the magazine door back on the magazine and lock it. Double check by pulling up on the door.

Step 2: The Take-up Side

Step 2 can be performed in daylight.

•Press the safety button on the take-up side magazine door and ﬂip the door lock up. Turn the door lock

counter clockwise until it stops and remove the magazine door.

•Slide the ﬁlm head into the lower magazine throat opening until it emerges inside the take-up side.

Note: The loop-length is unimportant at this stage. It will be set once the magazine is on the camera.

• Place the head of the ﬁlm into the collapsible core, clamp it in place and wind clockwise a couple of turns.

• Put the magazine door back on the magazine and lock it. Double check by pulling up on the door.

Step 3: Setting the Counter

The magazine display will count down the loaded footage if it has been entered during loading.

• Activate the magazine display by pressing the MODE button until the letters "ft" appear in the display.

• Press the left SET button to increase the footage counter value by 100'. Press the center SET button to

increase the counter value by 10'. Press the right SET button to increase the counter value by 1'.

If you have loaded a full roll of ﬁlm, you can quickly enter 393' by pressing the left and right SET buttons

simultaneously on a 400' magazine, or 983' by pressing the left and right SET buttons simultaneously on a

1000' magazine. It is assumed that some footage was used for loading purposes.

• When using timecode, now is a good time to set the proper timecode sensitivity (TCS) value. Press the

MODE button until the letters "TCS" appear in the display. Pressing any of the three SET buttons will

increase the TCS value by 1. See the table at the end of the Quick Guide for the proper TCS values.

Mounting the Magazine

Attaching a magazine to the camera and threading ﬁlm is done in the same manner with the coaxial and

with the lightweight magazines.

Note: On the 535B the movement block is disengaged from the drive system when it is swung away

from the gate. Both the movement and the drive system can now be turned independently of each other.

The movement block cannot be returned to the front position if either one has been moved. To return to

the proper coupling position, slowly turn the knurled discs on the sprocket rollers without pushing them

in, until the movement block will swing forward freely.

Attaching the Magazine to the Camera

• Open the camera door and remove the magazine opening cover.

• Turn the inching knob on the movement until the white index line aligns with the LOADING POSITION line.

• Push the movement locking lever to the UNLOCK position and swing the movement block away from the

ﬁlm gate.

• Turn the sprocket guide lever up, towards the OPEN position.

• Pull some ﬁlm out of the magazine until the loop is about 1 foot long.

• Push the loaded magazine halfway into the dovetail guide on the camera.

• Place the ﬁlm in the movement so that it lies between the sprocket guides and the sprocket rollers, and

between the movement and the ﬁlm gate (see graphic on the next page).

• Push the magazine into the camera as far as it will go. The magazine will lock with an audible click.

Threading the Film

• Position the ﬁlm on the upper and lower sprocket rollers so that the sprockets engage the ﬁlm perforations.

Gravity will hold the ﬁlm in place on the lower sprocket roller, but you may have to lift the upper ﬁlm loop

a little to hold the ﬁlm on the upper sprocket roller. Close the sprocket roller guides by turning the sprocket

guide lever towards the CLOSED position.

Note: If you cannot easily close the sprocket guide lever, it is an indication that the sprockets do not engage

the ﬁlm perforation properly. Open the sprocket guide lever again and reposition the ﬁlm. Never

force the sprocket guide lever!

• The white index line on the inching knob should still align with the LOADING POSITION on the movement.

• Push the movement locking lever to the UNLOCK position and gently swing the movement forward towards

the ﬁlm gate. Simultaneously slide the ﬁlm a little up and down to ensure that the transport claws engage

the ﬁlm perforations.

• Set the upper and lower ﬁlm loop to the corresponding ﬁlm loop markings by pushing down on the

knurled discs and turning them.

• To check for proper ﬁlm transport, turn the inching knob in the direction of the arrow on the movement

(clockwise). Alternatively, you can push the PHASE button to electronically inch the camera.

4. Power On, Camera RUN, Inching

Arriﬂex 535B Quick Guide, 7/97a, Page 10

Turning Camera Power On

The main power switch for the ARRIFLEX 535B is located on the underside of the electronics cover. When a

battery is attached to the camera and the main power switch is turned on, you should see characters appear

on the LCD display on the camera left side.

Camera RUN/STOP

A RUN button is located on both sides of the camera. To run the camera, depress the RUN button brieﬂy.

The RUN indicator light will glow red while the camera is coming up to speed, and switch to green once the

set frame rate is reached. The RUN indicator light will steadily glow green when the camera is running

without any problems at the set frame rate. If the RUN indicator light glows red when the camera is in

Standby, the camera is not ready and pushing the RUN button will have no effect.

Inching

The ARRIFLEX 535B can be inched manually with the inching knob or electronically with the PHASE button.

The PHASE button, if pushed very brieﬂy, will also rotate the mirror shutter 180°. This allows for a fast gate

check. To move the mirror shutter back in the viewing position, push the PHASE button again brieﬂy.

• To manually inch the camera, open the camera door and turn the inching knob on the movement in the

direction of the arrow (clockwise).

Note: Any ﬁlm in the movement area will be exposed to light!

• To electronically inch the camera, press the PHASE button while the camera is in Standby.
