If anyone else mentioned Vic 9 in connection to 70mm, i would have talked about april fools joke -- The niner is no heavyweight, You know. -As a matter of fact, when i (seldom, but it happens) run from Vic 9 to DGB 4000 tower instead of platter, the Vic is not able to stand still, when tower is started on standŽby - It pulls the film foreward, turning intermittent real slow, while waiting for show to start... With the platter system (ST 200), the Vic runs like a dream (- believe it or not)Any experience with chancing Vic 9 two blade shutter for a three blade ? - Is it possible on all types ? -Would it give more picture steadyness without stealing all my light ?? / p

I agree with Rick... the picture of the V9 doesn't look like the V9's I used either.Ours were the 'open' model, without any magazines. But still, I don't see the c/o shutter lever, or the rectangular hatch to change the framing lamp. Can't see any framing lever, which stuck out the top. I do see what looks like the V8's framing knob which is in the same place as a V8. (A V8 and V9 use the same intermittent.) It looks like there is some angled sections to the casting (shown just above and below the swing-away anamorphic lens) which wasn't on ours. Ours didn't have that round thing on the front of the casting, just below the upper magazine (maybe it's just a "Cinemecannica" badge.) Our pedestal had a platform to place the lamp on. It had switches for motor, c/o and exciter. The one shown in the picture has some bellows looking thing where the lamp is... perhaps that's just the lamp that was on the machine when the picture was taken and not really part of the projector.
