Rob ter Ellen

On offer is a Scoopic 16 MS and accessories. The Scoopic MS is an improved model of the Scoopic 16MN, released in 1974.

This is one of the most sought after if not the most sought after models as it allows for a 400-ft. film magazine to be attached to the top of the main body of the camera, allowing for much longer filming durations. Mitchell or Cinema Products Magazines can be used and attached to the battery chamber on top of the camera. 

Included:
1x Canon Scoopic 16 ms
4x original Canon batteries (1 has been recelled with a Tenergy 2000mAh battery pack, the other 3 need recelling)
1x original Canon charger. NOTE: it is not recommended to use this charger to charge the recelled battery pack. The original charger was designer for NiCad cells only not the Newer NiMh chemistry used today. I have only included it to keep the kit complete. If you are unsure about chargers, please reach out to me; I will be happy to advise on a charger that is compatible with NIMH cells.
1x Canon battery holder with alkaline battery pack in original packaging.
2x slide-in filter sets
1x xlr 5pin male to xlr 5pin female cable. Note, this is not a power cable, but a cable for the Pilotone modification that was made to the camera.
1x original flight case
1x Canon Wide-angle adapter in original Canon leather case, but not the Scoopic specific one, and you will need a step-up ring to attach it.

The good
Most importantly, it runs great. The film transports smoothly through the camera and it seems to hold the loops steady. But as with any vintage equipment, I would recommend a service before filming any serious projects. 
The viewfinder is clear 
The light meter and autoexposure work. 
The focus, zoom and aperture all adjust smoothly.  All the important bits for filming work perfectly. 

The not-so-great
The body paint has wear from regular use out in the field. This, of course, does not affect use at all -- it is purely cosmetic.
The lens has several tiny chips in it. This only affects the image when stopping down past F8 and in macro focusing from F5.6. It is also only really perceptible when filming with ultra-fine-grain film like Ektachrome or 50D. 200T, 250D, 500D and Double-X the film grain mask the
3 of the batteries still need re-celling.

This is a user camera. Solid as can be and will get the job done, but if you're looking for a spotless shelf queen then this is not the Scoopic for you

Please take careful note of the photos as they form part of the description
