Eclair ACL 16mm Film Cine Camera
1960s Film Camera
Step back into the golden age of filmmaking with the Éclair ACL, a legendary 16mm motion picture camera loved by cinematographers for its precision engineering, compact design, and unmistakable film look. Perfect for filmmakers seeking the authentic texture, discipline, and creative control of shooting on celluloid.
The Éclair ACL is a beautifully balanced, lightweight 16mm camera that defined documentary and independent filmmaking through the 1960s and 1970s. Its quiet motor, modular build, and ergonomic shoulder design make it as practical today as it was decades ago.
It’s ideal for stylised projects, with it’s True Film Aesthetic. Nothing matches the organic grain, depth, and tonal richness of real 16mm film – a quality that digital emulations can only approximate. The Éclair ACL delivers cinematic authenticity that no LUT or filter can fake.
For 16mm Film Camera hire, this is a wonderful choice.
