ARRIFLEX 235

The ARRIFLEX 235 is the ultimate small, lightweight 35mm MOS (non-sync) camera. Introduced by ARRI as a modern companion to the larger 435 and 535 systems, it was specifically designed for handheld, Steadicam, and remote head applications where weight and size are critical. Despite its small profile, it shares the same high-quality movement and optical viewfinder standards as ARRI’s studio cameras, making it a favorite for “run-and-gun” film cinematography.

Key Features:
Compact & Lightweight: Weighs only 3.5 kg (7.7 lbs), making it one of the lightest 35mm cameras ever made.
4-Perf Movement: Features a rock-solid movement with a fixed 180° or manually adjustable shutter.
Versatile Speed Range: Capable of 1 to 60 fps (forward only) for both standard and slight slow-motion shots.
Flexible Viewfinder: Can be swapped for the integrated 235 viewfinder or used with standard 435 viewfinder components for better ergonomics.
Standard Magazines: Compatible with specialized 200ft/400ft “dolphin” mags, as well as standard 435/535 magazines.
Modern Integration: Features an Integrated Video System (IVS) and compatibility with ARRI’s electronic accessories.
