Introduction
3. General Description
System Overview
The system comprises the following components:
• The Singleframe Hand Control Unit SFHC-1 ➪ photo,
which facilitates setting all important parameters for
singleframe shots.
• The Integrated Capping Shutter (ICS), which ensures that
the camera is light-tight around the mirror shutter for a
period of approx. one hour for taking singleframe shots.
• The Singleframe Film Recognition Module ➪ photo,
which is used instead of the standard film recognition
module or the time code module to reduce the curvature
of the film loop.
• The Singleframe Software, which controls all singleframe
functions in the ARRIFLEX 435.
• The Slide-In Mask ➪ photo and the ICS-Guide ➪ photo
to modify the film gate.
• A light-tight cover ➪ photo for the pull-down claw
slits and the register-pin holes in the film gate.

4. Modifying the ARRIFLEX 435
for Singleframe Takes
First, check that a 26-pin socket is visible on the right lower
side of the camera, as this is necessary for singleframe takes.
If there is no socket, the camera must be modified by an
authorised ARRI service center.
4.1 General
Due to the design of mirror-reflex film cameras, stray light
may pass around the mirror shutter onto the film when the
camera is not running. For normal film shots this is not a
problem, as the affected images fall into the camera run-
up, which is usually not used anyway. On singleframe shots
however, the stray light which during interval time can fall
onto the film around the mirror shutter can affect the quality
of the exposed singleframes.
The ARRI Integrated Capping Shutter covers the film during
the interval time with a thin metal plate. The metal plate is
pushed into the film gate after exposure. Before the next
exposure the plate is removed.

4.2 Preparing
the Film Gate
To accomodate the movement of the pulldown claw during
film-transport, the film gate is designed with vertical slits
on both sides. Furthermore, there are two holes for the
register-pins. These openings must be covered to prevent
stray light from reaching the film.
To enable the shutter plate of the Integrated Capping Shutter
to slide into the film gate, a special guide is inserted into the
film gate in place of the filter holder. The plate then slides
into this ICS-Guide. Due to the form of the ICS-Guide it is
necessary to use special format masks.
• Before removing the film gate turn off the camera’s main
switch and remove the camera from the power supply.
• Turn the knurled knob ➪ photo until its marking
matches that on the movement block.
• Turn the movement locking lever ➪ photo to the “OPEN”
position. This will cause the movement block to swing
away from the film gate.
