Lights, PROJECTOR, Action! -[ #FlickrFriday ]-
RCA 416R (MI-35018A) 16mm sound movie projector, early 1960s. This was the last model in RCA's well-regarded 400 series, which debuted in the late 1940s-early '50s. RCA's 1600-series projectors, which replaced this model, had design issues which affected its reliability; in the early 1970s, RCA sold the line to Viewlex, a company better known for their filmstrip projectors (remember those?). The tooling and rights for the 400 series were sold to a company in India, which built updated versions of the machines under the Photophone name, another former RCA brand.
Yes, some people call a projector a camera even though its function is the opposite of a camera.
Shot with two Einstein E640s (in color mode) with FOB35 35" octaboxes; one with internal diffuser to right of camera, one with G35 grid to the left.
