Congratulations!
You now have the power to produce the look and feel of 35mm film using a MiniDV camcorder.
The P+S Technik Mini35Digital image converter is designed for use on the Canon XL1 and
Canon XL1S camcorders as well as the Sony DSR-PD150/ DCR-VX2000/ DCR-VX1000
cameras, Panasonic AG-DVX100 and coming soon, the JVC JY HD10. The unit is optimized for
35mm lenses with large rear optical elements, such as Cooke S4 Primes, Zeiss Ultra Primes
and Zeiss Super Speeds. Zeiss Distagons with focal lengths over 40mm will also work.
Improved features of the “Oszi” 400 series
•Improved image screen – Finer grain pattern for better imaging
•New oscillating movement – The elliptical motion of the PRO35 has been
incorporated…no more center spot!
•Adjustable speed control - Allows greater control over the speed setting of
the moving focus screen (we recommend the setting be kept between 3 and 4).
•Improved optics for Sony connecting kit
•New unified body construction

Preparation
Avoid Murphy’s Law!!
Assemble the Mini35Digital image converter on
your camcorder BEFORE the first day of your
production. After attaching the unit to your camera
according to the steps outlined below, be sure to
check each of your lenses, f-stop combinations and
shutter adjustments for compatibility. We
recommend at least a half, if not full, day of testing
before production. You will need a more robust film
lighting “package” rather then the typical video
lighting “kit” for optimal image capture. The
Mini35Digital is not a magical device, time and
effort will be needed to obtain the desired images
at first, but will become second nature as your
productions progress.
***USAGE NOTE***
The Mini35Digital creates a lively cine-like image
with an artificial film grain pattern. How much the
film grain pattern is adequate for you depends on
your preference. To adjust the visibility of the
pattern use the 8-step speed control wheel (J) and
the T-stops. To optimize the effect, the taking lens
should be as wide open as possible: Use the iris on
the relay lens of the XL1(S) Mini35, and ND filters
for bright outdoor shots. With the Panasonic and
Sony Mini35, exposure control is done on the
camera lens with the camera set in full manual
mode.
Items needed before you begin:
•A 2.5mm hex wrench (delivery content)
•A 35mm format film lens for testing and
•A high quality test chart, such as the Putora 7A9
•A control monitor is recommended.
