[Konvas] Site updates

[H. W. Stone]

 "clones"

Don't forget the Mitchells--? many of which the Soviet Version actually interchanges parts with the American Version with the exception of screw threads.

For those interested, I tried to update this page a little yesterday:?
?

http://konvas.org/industry/motion-picture-camera-services-accessories.html?
?

Worked on updating the list AND also added what each of the service 
companies/people do. Please let me know if I missed someone that you 
think should be added.?
?

Until I can confirm his site is working, I removed the link to Lee 
Gaither's site customupholsteryproducts.com, but left his company, email 
addy, and other information up there just in case.?
?

If you are on the list (or at least know someone who is), but your 
information doesn't look correct, please let me know ASAP so I can fix it.?
?

Also, once I get the rest of commiecam uploaded to konvas.org, and the 
old discussion list archives sorted and uploaded (trust me, I'm on the 
path - but it's a long, long path), I'd like to start adding other 
camera, lens, and cinema equipment information.?
?

At first, it will be cameras (and lenses) that were directly copied 
(read: clones) to make many of the Soviet cameras - like the 35mm Arri, 
Eyemo, and Aaton. I feel knowing the original cameras may help to 
understand the clones a lot better. Then, I'd like to go on to other 
cameras where you can easily see that certain design ideas were 
"borrowed" (sometimes quite heavily), like with the Eclair CM3 and 
Konvas. Btw: I would like to try and avoid getting into modern Cinema 
Cameras, unless comparing functions of new cameras with those of the 
Soviet made MoPic cameras...?
?

Again, with the above page: PLEASE let me know if I missed someone that 
you think should be added! The above page is so that everyone can have 
an easy reference for service specialists, technicians, and accessories...?
?
