Hello all,

On request of several forum users, we are currenlty developing a new anamorphic lens holder for the Bauer 16mm projectors (like the P6 / P7 / P8) - project number PP-0088

Compared to the original lens holder, it will be able to put lenses also before the big zoom lens. So the holder is extended in size.

Here are some pictures of the current prototype:

If you have suggestions/tips for us, please let me know!
I hope to have this ready in a couple of months.

Edwin
What range of overall diameter measurements of lenses will the holder accept?

I will work for lenses with a diameter between 41 and 64 mm

( similar as the one for the Elmo GS-1200 :

That looks promising, and I think it's a very good idea to offer the option of placing the holder in two positions, as I wouldn't want to buy two different types. If you can make the cost affordable, I'll certainly consider buying one.
