Someone knows the editor viewer model "Ferquin Marguet Coffret No. 8"?
I have bought it at a good price and in very good condition, I needed a "visionneuse" for 9.5mm and i'm satisfied for the purchase.

But I have two simple curiosity, if someone knows the answer:

I have bought it at a good price and in very good condition, I needed a "visionneuse" for 9.5mm and i'm satisfied for the purchase.

But I have two simple curiosity, if someone knows the answer:

1) It's a tri-film editor viewer, should also work for 8mm and 16mm, but the "central block" (white circle in photo) has the sporcket and the wheels dimension and teeth only suitable for the 9.5mm film size. I tried to remove the central block and i saw that sprocket and wheels are fixed, so... I think it would change the entire central piece.
Perhaps it sold with three separate pieces (central blocks), but no internet ad sells pieces than the one already installed.

2) I have the arms for 9,5mm and 16mm, but not for 8mm: Another couple of pieces that you would change?

As said... the important thing was to use it to 9.5 mm, the rest, use for 8mmm and 16mm are just my curious.

Yes, Dom, I used it in 9,5m. Inserting the spools on the arms, specific for 9.5mm, the film makes a short path in the central block (what you should change for the different format, in addition to the arms).
The slow motion is very good, very bright, I think it is brightest of my Goko that I use for Regular 8mm-Super 8! It's also very smooth, I am satisfied, I would also use it for 16mm!
On eBay there are others of this model, even if I have paid a lot less, but might interest you, since you have not an editor viewer for 9.5mm!
The only problem is that they don't know which arms and central block which is included in, you might also 8mm or 16mm, I do not know if the seller is able to respond. If you are interested I tell you what it looks like the central block and arms for 9.5 mm.

P.S. Another store has the arms for 9.5 mm, no problem.

I will definitly buy one but not before I could make some room as I'm more than overwhelmed with film and material at the moment [Smile] I will not part with anything, just find a place to store.
