Arriflex 435

The number reflects its position as a successor camera to the Arri III and the fact that it is designed for 35 mm film.

These include a standard Arri PL mount; compatibility with Super 35; frame rates adjustable both in forward and reverse between 1 and 150 frames per second, accurate to .001 frames per second; fixed-loop magazines and backwards compatibility with older Arri magazines; compatibility with some Arriflex 535 accessories; timecode capability; and a highly flexible viewfinder and video-tap system which could be switched out with other video tap options.

While not only making standard some of the improved accessories made available in the interim, the 435 Advanced added more features to increase the versatility of the camera.

A new FEM (Functional Expansion Module) was added in 2003 to increase the camera's electronic feature set.

Three more accessories were released in 2005, exclusively for the 435 Advanced and 435 Xtreme: a hand-crank extension, a timing shift box to offset the phasing, and a remote LCD control panel designed for use on the "dumb side" of the camera.
