Curzon Collection: 16 mm Carpenter


CARPENTER 16mm sound

An interesting developed after WW2 by Carpenter & Richardson of Wembley. Its claim to fame is that it is operated similar to many American machines, on the left hand side. Perhaps this was why it never became overly popular but it is a good machine with a 1000watt lamp and good optics. 1600ft. capacity it has a voltmeter above the lens mount. The sound/silent control is a knurled knob which is screwed in for the silent speed. 1950
