The ARRIFLEX 535 is a 35 mm silent production camera that combines a brilliant viewfinder and the highest operating convenience with ARRI’s well-known precision and reliability. An innovative new programmable mirror shutter can vary the open angle while the camera is running, providing new creative possibilities. The cinematographer can now run exposure-compensated speed ramps or simply change exposure quickly without affecting the depth of field. This capability quickly becomes popular, and the ARRIFLEX 435 and the ARRICAM system later expand this technology with innovations such as automated speed/iris ramps and depth-of-field ramps.
A 35mm silent production camera that functions equally well as a studio or location camera for sync sound shooting. It is hard-wearing and sufficiently versatile to serve as the main or even the only camera for a feature film production.
The 535B is characterized by a compact and lightweight design and ideal both as a main camera or as a second unit with the advantage of being able to use the complete 535 accessory range. The light-weight and modular viewfinder system with an exceptionally bright image is the main feature of the camera. The viewfinder can be pivoted in two axes. Viewing from each camera side is possible, with an upright image in all positions.
