The Arri Group has been the largest world wide supplier of high quality
motion picture film equipment since 1917. Arri, named after founders
August Arnold and
Robert Richter, is a leader in film camera (16, 35, and 65/70 mm) and cinematic lighting equipment. In recent years they have expanded into post-production equipment with the
Arrilaser, and in 2000 purchased
Moviecam to refine their new camera platform Arricam. In 1937 the Arri Group introduced the world's first reflex mirror shutter in the
Arriflex 35 camera, an invention of their longtime engineer
Erich Kaestner. This technology employs a rotating mirror that allows a continuous motor to operate the camera while providing
parallax-free reflex viewing to the operator, and the ability to focus the image by eye through the viewfinder, much like an
SLR camera for still photography. This technology is still employed today in almost every motion picture camera.
