As a soon graduating ME, it still boggles my mind how people figured some of this stuff out. Like the concept seems easy: have a mirror with gaps timed properly with the frame rate and use a piston in reverse to move the film. But then you get into the details and see how much more complicated it is, like the consideration of using helical gears, and getting the disk to always stop in a position that prevents further exposure. Always gotta respect the effort older generations put into figuring out difficult problems
There's a couple things going on here though: the first is that the claw may be moving fast, but without much torque. If the film jams, the claw can't move, so it can't really cause damage. The second is the really amazing timing systems and brakes film cameras use. Basically, when the film isn't moving, it's clamped in place and can't be advanced. When the claw grabs the sprocket hole, the clamps release, and the film gets dragged easily through the system, so nothing is resisting the claw as it drags. These things are fantastic bits of analogue engineering.
In the fast camera that I used "once upon time" there were no claws. The film and the octal mirror were synchronized. That means the image was tracking the film movement which was smooth, just accelerating. Depending on the target speed, the acceleration could go on until the end of the film in less than two seconds...
I've been an analogue motion film camera technician for over 35 years now and this is by far the best explanation of how an analogue motion picture camera works. My hats off to Gav in not only his spot-on understanding of the machanics of it all but for so perfectly using his digital and optical tools and skills to capture, edit and deliver that explanation!
Why yes, I did in fact know that there are analogue slow mo cameras! However I only discovered this by stumbling upon ultra slow motion footage of early 50s nuclear testing and realising "hey, if I can see this plasma ball, it must be being recorded *incredibly* slowly, how'd that happen in the 50s?" This then lead me down an *hours* long rabbit hole. 10/10 would recommend
Seeing undeveloped film is deeply disturbing. I need to have a rest to recover from this. Around 6:08 I had an unstoppable urge to subscribe to this channel. Which was odd because I've been subscribed for ages.
I filmed it twice. One with the shutter on and one with it off. Then I basically cut a hole in the footage of the shutter on and placed the shutter off footage underneath so it’s visible through the hole.
if you want to know more, it's called "masking". You can find tutorials on yt, that might show you how it's done. with today's software it's easy to do, back in the day (from when the term comes from) you had to "mask" things out by hand with paint on glass or other techniques, while playing the original footage and filming it with a new strip of film. Very interesting and confusing at first, but very old tech tbh.
@@snjert8406 that's just how things go. If it works, you keep doing it until you find something that works better. That's why we're still burning fossil fuels almost 150 years after the invention of the internal combustion engine...
Right?! At first I thought I was looking at a generic camera flyby, then I saw it was the same model. Then I though it was B-stock from the manufacturer, then I remembered...that wouldn't exist.
Macro lens on the capture camera (a DSLR maybe?) and moving it on a gimble? Well done shot regardless. Gives the sensation of flying around the camera closeup.
This was absolutely fascinating. Please make more videos like this, as a film nerd and engineer I enjoyed your explanation thoroughly. The humor is great too
@@snjert8406 I saw it in 48 fps too. It was weird. It was too clear, too sharp, too "real", and it just lost something. It was extremely distracting and would drag you out of the action pieces constantly. Our brains are programmed over decades for that 24fps slightly blurred effect in movies, and when it's missing, it's a problem. Perhaps if every film from then on had been 48fps we would eventually acclimatise, but I think the negativity around HFR in The Hobbit killed it. It didn't help that the story was an over-blown, tissue-thin, money-grab that was basically non-stop over-the-top action pieces consisting of running from location A to B... for three looooong films!
@@stephen-boddy I wonder if it has more to do with our brain's perception of movement on a flat surface as opposed to just being learned through films. I realize this makes no sense. Experiments must be made.

There would be so much more to discover in the mechanisms of this camera, like how they made it so the spring, which does not deliver a constant force on its own, still poweres the camera so it runs at a constant speed. Probably with a centrifugal switch or so. Fascinating.

I wish we could have seen the actual recordings on the old camera, or at least a comparison of a 24 fps movie and a 48 fps movie shot on that camera. I love vintage tech.
@@cannibalbananas 24 coz it used the least amount of film for a decently smooth feel. It also had to provide enough surface for the opticaly printed audio track
@@cannibalbananas The actual reason why is when they first invented movies, they figured out about 48 fps was the minimum to get convincing motion that wasn't jerky or blurry. Film is expensive when you are using it up as fast as a movie camera does, so to save money they just ran the cameras at half speed. People got used to the low framerate, and as a bonus it helps cover up things you may want to hide like crappy props or practical effects.
That was absolutely amazing to watch, the old film cameras were works of art. Even the budget cameras like my Olympus OM10 were beautifully constructed inside.
A friend of mine has a 16mm camera that can run up to 10,000fps. It was an impressive piece of machinery. I just have a K3 myself and you captured its fascinating feat of mechanical engineering quite well. Thank you.
i really dont comment much on videos but i have to say the reason why i follow this channel and have for years is because i have a genuine desire to understand "how that works" about pretty much everything. this video has absolutely hit that spot... i basically creamed my intelectual pants! love it! thanks for the great videos!
Analog is one of my favorite things. I was lucky that my great grandparents left to my parents the house they built & all the cool things in it, including a counterweighted hatch door for the stairwell.
Sometimes I forget that this Gavin is the same Gavin that thought it was a good idea to tell Jeremy to axe kick his already half broken and fragile desk while still having expensive equipment on it.
Also, I am currently seeing you through a bio camera, using a camera to film yourself shooting a video through a camera in which you are shooting a camera through a camera...😅
As you say- these were marvels of engineering and manufacturing! I had the privilege of using a mitchell high speed 35mm camera, which has 4 pin registration (Panavision later bought the patent and incorporated the tech) It was used to shoot Optical titles & VFX plates or repeatable motion control, and the 4 pin registration was essential to prevent any interframe wobble at all of the film plane. So it was an additional layer of mechanics than pictured here, that could function at several hundred frames per second :/ PS thanks for another RAD SlowMo Guys video!

Those asking 'where is Dan?', Gavin has already said, Dan is in the UK, while Gav is in Texas, USA. Travel restrictions from covid keep Dan from coming to the states. I think there's more than enough of their hijinks to keep you busy until they link back up. Also, check out the second channel.
It's really fun knowing an answer to something I never knew I had a question about: why there are holes in film. It all makes sense now! (gosh I love this channel)
I love how much awesome use you get out of the Laowa probe lens! Its use cases are pretty specific, but when is the right tool for the job, it’s just fantastic.

Go check out the video on a film projector from Engineerguy
This
Very well said. This was amazing to watch, as a videographer
That "pulling mechanism" looked insane! The timing of that pull is so exact, that I had so start laughing for a second 👍
That's the beauty of engineering, and a particularly good understanding of math.
Its all tied to together mechanically (the gears that control shutter also control the arm) so it has to be exact
What I find most fascinating is that claw pulling the film down and how it doesn't just rip through the material of the film while moving that fast
There's a couple things going on here though: the first is that the claw may be moving fast, but without much torque. If the film jams, the claw can't move, so it can't really cause damage. The second is the really amazing timing systems and brakes film cameras use. Basically, when the film isn't moving, it's clamped in place and can't be advanced. When the claw grabs the sprocket hole, the clamps release, and the film gets dragged easily through the system, so nothing is resisting the claw as it drags. These things are fantastic bits of analogue engineering.
@@michaelbushee3968 Thanks for the very nice explanation.

That means the image was tracking the film movement which was smooth, just accelerating. Depending on the target speed, the acceleration could go on until the end of the film in less than two seconds...

*on Gavs security camera later that day*
"Heres me on camera taking a picture on a camera of me using a camera...."

With all the cameras Gav owns, I wonder just how far he could take that gag
Well of course he has to make a reaction video. You know what that means.
And of course he would use another camera to show us the security camera
The way that Claw pulls down the film at the exact moment needed is the most satisfying part of the video!
The tracking shot through the inside of the camera in macro slow mo was pretty amazing.
This is far better than the "film" class I took in high school
"here's me taking a selfie of me taking a picture of a pic-"

Those asking 'where is Dan?', Gavin has already said, Dan is in the UK, while Gav is in Texas, USA. Travel restrictions from covid keep Dan from coming to the states. I think there's more than enough of their hijinks to keep you busy until they link back up. Also, check out the second channel.
No, dan is tunneling his way underneath the atlantic ocean at this point.
Gavin, your sound design is second to none.
It's really fun knowing an answer to something I never knew I had a question about: why there are holes in film.

I love how much awesome use you get out of the Laowa probe lens! Its use cases are pretty specific, but when is the right tool for the job, it’s just fantastic.
