Author Topic: Question about Aperture Plate... Hsin-ning Chang Film Handler Posts: 12 From: Athens, OH, United States Registered: Sep 2008 posted 08-22-2012 01:42 PM                     Hello, Our Century SA projectors need to redo some apertures, but we couldn't figure out what exactly kind this aperture is. Therefore, I'm wondering if anyone would be able to tell what kind or what number this kind of aperture is? We have Kelmar's the Automatic Turret, Gate and Traps mount on our Century SA, and here is a picture of the plate. Really really appreciate!

(Oh the stories it could tell...)  |  IP: Logged Hsin-ning Chang Film Handler Posts: 12 From: Athens, OH, United States Registered: Sep 2008 posted 08-22-2012 05:23 PM                     Pual, yes yes. It is exactly a combo for both flat and scope! Would you know where we might be able to buy it? I've tried to ask people in Kelmar, and people in RSEM. Have not been able to figure it out though... Brent... I am nervous about what are the stories... hope we could still find the plate somewhere! In any case, thank you. And always appreciate for more information!  |  IP: Logged Sam D.

Kelmar usually will only sell to dealers, but they will tell you the part # so you can place an order with a friendly dealer. There were not a lot of these gates sold and I bet there are still parts in stock  |  IP: Logged Hsin-ning Chang Film Handler Posts: 12 From: Athens, OH, United States Registered: Sep 2008 posted 08-23-2012 07:17 PM                     Thank you so much, Sam, for the reply! Will certainly do that:)  |  IP: Logged
