I converted to the Kinor 16 some time ago, back when complete, brand-new
Kinor 16 kits were availale for about twice what the going rate for K-3
kits were. The situation has radically changed, now, and I haven't seen a
brand-new Kinor 16 kit in a long time.

A Kinor 16 kit includes:

Second series camera body, with a "hard front", not a turret

Motor and its special cables

Handgrip and trigger for the motor

Two 100' daylight load mags, non-displacement type

One 400' conventional load mags, displacement type

10-100mm relatively fast zoom lens

0.8X "reducer" for the zoom, makes it into a 8-80mm

8mm fast ultra-wide prime lens

Some miscellania.

Alas, a Kinor 16 was intended for TV newsgathering, and it is factory set
for 25 fps, but changing it to 24 fps is pretty easy. It is NOT crystal
controlled, but is governor controlled using tachometer feedback, so it
is pretty stable. The tachometer output also generates the pilotone.

After the Kinor 16, the next logical step was a Kinor 35, and I got one
of those, too.
