Spec Notes

Single-lens. C-mount - the standard 1 in-32 TPI thread shared with the whole cine world, which is why this row uses the general c Mount slug rather than a Kodak-specific one. Internal finder with adjustable vision correction and a separate finder lens per taking lens. Kodak Ektar II 25mm f/1.4 Lumenized is documented for it, alongside third-party C-mount glass. Capacity, frame rates, motor and weight NOT SOURCED. SERIAL NUMBERS: these bodies DO carry serials (Kerr's own Special is number 330; a Science Museum Group Royal Magazine is 65678) but NO Cine-Kodak serial-to-year scheme is published anywhere - checked across all four Kerr monographs, Wikipedia, Pacific Rim Camera's Cine reference library and two museum catalogues. Date these bodies by model production window only.
