ما توصّل إليه النقاش
- The Penelope prototype features a completely redesigned magazine and movement system simplified from the previous 35-3 model.
- The camera is designed to operate quietly and can shoot in both 3-perf and 2-perf formats.
- The battery placement was relocated to the dummy side of the camera.
- Magazine loading was identified as a major user complaint on the previous model, and the new design aims to address this issue.
- The electronic counter and active displacement systems were removed from the new design, which may improve reliability but will add a couple of inches to the overall rig length.
- The camera is expected to be lighter and quieter than the 35-3.
- A vertical Steadicam magazine variant was being considered for development.
