ARRIFLEX 35IIC

This 35mm MOS camera is probably the most widely used camera in the world.  Many feature films have been shot in their entirety with this camera by means of a sound proofing blimp. But the camera has most widely been used as a b-roll camera where sound is not as important as maneuverability and flexibility. Some of these old cameras (produced in the 50s and 60s) are still in use today in commercial work. And the camera that have replaced are the updated Arriflex cameras like the Arri3 and the 435.

The most common Arriflex2 cameras are the Arri IIC and the Arri IIB.  These two cameras have the same lens mounts, magazines and motors. The largest operating difference between the two cameras is in the viewfinder doors.  The 2C door will fit on a 2B (though it has to be taped up to be light tight) but a 2B door will not fit on a 2C. Also, the Arri IIB has a permanent ground glass (or at least not operator changeable) and the 2C has an operator changeable ground glass.  The ground glass is changed by removing the lens and pulling the glass out by it little handle. The glass is held in place by pressure clips and is secured by a small screw and tab.
