Author Topic: Cinemecannica parts and projectors? Paul Gordon Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 580 From: Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Registered: Aug 2005 posted 11-27-2014 02:33 PM                        Is Cinemecannica still making 35mm projectors and parts? Are they the last ones? Their website does not really say much. If not who in North America still sells parts for Vic 5's and 8's? Jack Roe? Thanks in advance.

I would say Jack Roe are your best bet for parts. Kinoton and Strong are no longer in the film business. Not sure about the other minor European manufacturers ? Any one else know?  |  IP: Logged Paul Gordon Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 580 From: Ottawa, Ontario, Canada Registered: Aug 2005 posted 11-30-2014 06:58 AM                        Ok so everyone is out of projector manufacturing game then? If so I better start stocking up on used parts for Vics then.  |  IP: Logged Fredrik Sandstrom Film Handler Posts: 63 From: Turku, Varsinais-Suomi, FINLAND Registered: Mar 2014 posted 11-30-2014 09:19 AM                     What about Ernemann? They list four current models on their website: http://www.ernemann.com/eng/products/models.html The latest (E18) was apparently introduced in 2007. I've never actually seen a modern Ernemann though.  |  IP: Logged Steve Guttag We forgot the crackers Gromit!!!

Note, Kinoton came out with their Reference/Premiere line of projectors in 2007 too. I suspect, like every other projector manufacturer, their sales have tended towards zero and thus had to cease operations.  |  IP: Logged
