  • B&H widescreen aperture plate

    Does anyone know if widescreen format 1.85:1 aperture or pressure plates are available for B&H projectors 1692 or later?
    cheers

    A quick answer is no.
    In the fifties and early sixties some Bell & Howell 16mm sound projectors did have variable apertures plates. In order to fit them a space for the up/down plates to move had to be made. But, by the later sixties Bell & Howell dropped the idea.
    I have a model 644 which has them fitted.
