Eclair ACL 16mm camera shutter in slow motion
Eclair ACL running at 24fps, shutter filmed at 1500fps, 3200fps, 6400fps. (By narrowing the resolution, the high speed camera can run faster.)

Eclair ACL HD Motor (MIMUL) speed ramp circuit
Переглядів 1112 роки тому
This is the motor's speed ramping circuit in action. The base 48KHz signal that gets divided down to drive the stepper motor first goes through an add-on circuit board. That board takes in the 48KHz signal and puts it back out again unchanged... until 1 5V signal is applied to one of its inputs. Then,as shown here, it slashes the frequency, then brings it back up to about half the input frequen...

Cruising to work on the '67 Triumph, turning left on a green arrow, someone tried to avoid the stoplight by cruising through a closed gas station and cutting across the highway...without, you know, looking to see if there was any other traffic. She stopped in time and I would have too because I am expecting crazy stuff like this every moment I am on the chopper.
Pinball factory, Arriflex 16S camera, Kodak 7219 Vision 3 500T film
Переглядів 1,4 тис.3 роки тому
Here I wanted to test out how 500T film would handle the horror-show that is the mixed lighting in the pinball factory I work in - ironically, the one color temperature NOT present is Tungsten! Real fluorescent tubes, LED "fluorescent tubes", daylight from high windows, various colorful LEDs in the games - what a mess. The film handled the color temperatures OK, but any real shooting here would...
Easter 2021with Arriflex 16S camera, 7219 Kodak Vision 3 500T film, Angeneiuex 5.9mm f/1.8 lens
Переглядів 6453 роки тому
Testing out some home-movie-type shooting, complete with awful lighting setup. Used 500T for the indoors exposure, wanted to see how it would handle the daylight simultaneously coming in through all the windows. (The answer: badly.) The stupid slip-on hood for the Angenieux 5.9 lens was cockeyed when I started and I didn't notice it for a bit. Will need to gaffer-tape that in place for any seri...
Full moon, Arriflex 16S Camera, Kilfitt 600mm lens, Kodak 7203 Vision 3 50D film
Переглядів 3743 роки тому
Since the Kilfitt 600mm f/5.6 lens was too long for most terrestrial subjects, I set my sights a little farther away. The rising full moon on April 26, 2021! Early shots were trying to be a little artsy, shooting through trees. That just looked dumb. Most shot at f/8, a couple at f/5.6 just in case I'd calculated the exposure wrong (I hadn't.) Note the moon nearly fills the frame - this lens is...
Chicago, Arriflex 16S Camera, Kilfitt 600mm lens, Kodak 7203 Vision 3 50D film
Переглядів 5353 роки тому
Testing out a monster Kilfitt 600mm f/5.6 lens. Shot from Promontory Point (about 55th St), looking north towards Chicago - I was too close! Spun around and shot some industrial plants in Gary, and a bit of South Chicago. Hazy morning sunrise through all that distance, so not the best footage, but it let me know just what a beast the lens is.
Ball Bowler Pins Destruction in slo-mo, multiple cameras
Переглядів 1943 роки тому
Back in 2013 I hauled my high speed 16mm cameras to my brother's house, where he used his giant air cannon to destroy an old parted out ball bowler. This is where he shot the load into the pins. I recorded it on an HD mini cam, a GoPro, a Traid 200V 16mm film camera running at 200fps, and a Photec rotating prism 16mm film camera running at 3200 fps. The 16mm film was Ektachrome, which by then w...

Great!!!!!!
All us folks who have poured our entire lives into creating these games that have enhanced so many lives over the years are all struggling to find work now due to AI. Things that took us a lifetime to learn, years of college and subsequent debt, all the insane amount of work, sacrificed life balance, pouring ourselves into this craft of passion...GPT could fart out any one of these games in seconds with perfect code and simultaneously send us the email informing us we've been laid off and generate a legitimately impressive picture of a middle finger with a tattoo of Mario peeing on your mom...all at the same time. For free. Hello Burger King! I never worked a drive-thru before! This ought to be exciting and I'm totally going to able to pay my bills with this napkin with a $ sign drawn on it! F!#%!@*&!!!
Thank you so much for sharing. I'm a fly on the wall of pinball history!

I used to endlessly play Bonzai Run at the Balboa Fun Zone (I think, the Bay Arcade?) near Newport Beach CA. Probably circa 1990. Hundreds of hours of play time over the entire summer. Every sound that game made is embedded in my head lol... Seems crazy to run across this video, but thank you so much for it! I really wish I could play it again.. it's definitely near the top of my bucket list!
and to think that attractive model is now collecting social security. How'd that happen? :O
So amazing to see 3 dimensional games back in the early mid 1980s that looked so good and cool. I never got to play some of those show, but wow would I have liked to have if I could go back ^<^
SHE WILL ALWAYS BE AWESOME AND HAWT! I think I played that pinball machine a few times long long LONG ago. ^<^
A pinball machine that gives you tokens as winnings is AWESOME!I Never heard of that, but I wish more had that feature throughout the years. NICE! ^<^ BE WELL!
Arcade games in the eighties seem to have been more varied and appealing to a much broader audience. Pretty much every game had somethin new and origiinal going on. Fast forward to the nineghties and it's all Street Fighter 2 clones and pay-per-race driving games. Bleh...
The voiceover guy sounds like the Codex reader from Mass Effect.
Xion cooper said it best"I dont want reality I want fun". Thats whats missing in games today too much real not enough fun.
thank you for video...
Found your channel from your comment on the high speed camera teardown, all your footage from high speed and normal speed cameras is great! You seem to be a big enthusiast in them - and pinball! Just wondering, why does the mirror move back and forth? Did Arri patent the mirror shutter or something and they had to do something else? I figured splitting it up like this wouldn't be desirable at all, especially since this camera was made with a mechanism so silent it didn't need a blimp. But this adds another thing that spins and moves back and forth.
Well it's possible this helps make it even more quiet, but I think really the biggest advantage is that it is way more compact. Compare an ACL to the Arri 16S, for instance,. That angled spinning mirror takes up a lot of room. Secondary benefit: when an ACL shutter is closed, no light reaches the film. When an Arri 16S shutter is "closed" light can still leak around the mirror and expose the frame of film sitting there. (Really only a critical issue in things like time lapse and stop motion.)
I thought for a second it was Techdweeb in the beginning.
Awwwww, the girl playing Stargate IS ADORABLE! I wish I could touch her head in real life (because she is so cute)!
A prototype Whirlwind and a young Python. Cool!
Those were the days. ❤❤
So good. Thank you so much for archiving this.
Seems he's single clutching the range stick. How is he doing that?
Reading about Steve’s career and his impact on pinball makes me feel like he should be the world record holder as the provider of more hours of fun and enjoyment than any one else in history. What a legend.
Williams got major mileage out of their sound chip, scame sound effects from pinball tables to video games
Would you have any for sale?
How ironic WB news
Just picked up a RFM, and this is so cool to relive the moment and excitement when it was released. Thanks for sharing Duncan!
6 months to a year? Lol people are still playing these games

Saying 1990 was the 60th anniversary of pinball is a bit disingenuous for the guy in the video to say. The first pinball machine was in 1931, so there's that. But really, early Pinball machines were not pinball. These were not games of skill for the purpose of entertainment, they were games of chance played for the gambling aspect. It's not the gambling part that makes them not pinball. You can gamble based on any modern pinball machine. It's the game of chance aspect. Unlike Pinball, it is not a game of skill. There is little to no skill involved. Even when the machines had flippers, they so far apart that it was just luck if you could hit the ball using the flipper.
Where were they supposed to be viewed? Did they send this on VHS to anyone who happened to write to them for some reason?

Her voice is amazing. If Lt. Jae had ever had a speaking part on TNG, it would have upstaged everything ..
Wow, this is a great snapshot in time. Sinistar is the only hit game here, the rest were flops, unfortunately for Williams. Played Mystic Marathon, Inferno, Bubbles, and Blaster at California Extreme. Never played Turkey Shoot, Splat, Speed Ball, Devastator, or Star Rider. Played Sinistar everywhere else I could find it! Interesting to see the pinball cameos as well. Inferno is built around the Grand Lizard, and Red Hot (from Banzai Run) is one of your motorcycle opponents here in Star Rider as well.
For the degenerate pinball trivia nerds out there, at :06 you can hear the very uncommon European prototype music from Rollergames (despite them showing Whirlwind's playfield).
wtf was that ending LMAO
Love that voice.
Mack Attack!👍😎
Are you able to repair the ACL motor ?
I have the same motor that doesn’t run. How did you fix yours?
I like seeing how we used to react to cameras.
That isn't a skull and crossbones. It is a person with their hands up with an X through their body.
I still own my copy of Robotron:2084 that I bought off of eBay back in 1999.
Cool piece of pinball history, thanks for sharing!
I love these classic gaming news covers to see how everything was represented back then. I love many o these wonderful arcade games especially Pac-Man. Thanks for sharing such a fantastic news cover from the 1980's. Cool video. ^_^
