And it does it all fast and easy.
It has an electronic motor with up to 14

equipment? Because besides designing and manu¬
facturing computer animation equipment, Cinetron
uses our equipment the same ways you do. We do
animation. From cell animation and graphics to

speeds plus rewind and anti-strobe adjustments.
It even has automatic moves. You simply show it
where to start and stop.
The Cinetron 1100 gives you

inverse sine,
logarithmic, level and exponential speed tapers.
This exponential taper lets you match the speeds
of different zooms, on or off center, automatically
and gives you the most life-like acceleration and
deceleration of anything on film.

the bugs out. We test every capability of our equip¬

available to anyone else. So you get gear you can
count on. And if something should go wrong, you
can count on us to make it right.
