The Arriflex 16SR2 (SR2) is a legendary 16mm motion picture camera known for its compact, ergonomic design and exceptionally quiet operation, making it a staple for documentary and indie filmmaking. This package features the Angenieux 12-120mm zoom, a classic piece of glass that offers a versatile 10x zoom range and the signature organic, vintage texture that Angenieux is known for. The SR2’s symmetrical “coaxial” magazine system allows for quick film changes and excellent balance on the shoulder, while its robust German engineering ensures reliable performance in diverse shooting environments. When paired with the 12-120mm, this kit provides a complete, period-accurate 16mm production solution that bridges the gap between vintage aesthetics and professional mechanical reliability.
