While going through my files, I found photos of the 35-70 mm Inchol which
had DP-70 type of film gate. This unit has a 2000 watt xenon using a Philips
design. This unit shown was built in 1974 and has approximately 300 hours
of use and still in operation. It will be replaced shortly with newer
equipment. Not shown in the photos is a 16 / 35mm projector using a common
film gate / four lens turret / and separate 16mm + 35mm soundheads. Inchol
also made a few 16/35/70mm combo projectors. The company went out of
business in the 1980's when import tariffs where lifted in Brazil. present
tariff is 77% so it is still a challenge. The former owner, in his late 80's
is writing a book and all of his sons are in the business (service in the
USA and Brazil, manufacturing and cinema ownership).
