Title

1920s Kodak Cine Kodak Model B Movie Camera

Description

This Cine Kodak Model B 16mm camera features a Kodak Anastigmat 25mm f1.9 lens. The Cine-Kodak Model B was the second generation 16mm film camera from the Eastman Kodak Company, and was launched in 1925. Unlike their first 16mm camera the Model A, the Model B is spring-motor driven. It was designed to be lightweight, portable, and easy to use. The camera uses 100ft daylight loads and includes a fixed focus lens. In 1923, Kodak launched cellulose acetate-based 16mm safety film, designed to replace highly flamble nitrate film and make amateur movie making safe and practical. That same year, they introduced their 16mm Cine-Kodak Model A camera and Kodascope Projector.

First Kodak 16 mm camera first produced in 1924. Some of the cult silent movies were shot using these cameras. .
