Author Topic: Cin. ZX-4000H Lamphouse Alingment Samuel Hynds Film Handler Posts: 50 From: Riverside, CA, USA Registered: Aug 2004 posted 05-08-2006 09:57 AM                     Hello Demetris, The D03033 & XH1295 are for the same lamp (4000w/HS) but are different lengths for different mirrors. The D03033 is 16.5mm in length for a F1 of 191mm; which has been nicknamed the 'Americano' mirror. The XH1295 is 20mm in length for a F1 of 194.5mm. There should be enough room in the focus adjustment to make-up the difference. Hope this helps. Sam  |  IP: Logged Richard Fowler Film God Posts: 2392 From: Ft. Lauderdale, FL, USA Registered: Jun 2001 posted 05-08-2006 10:49 AM                     3.5mm could make a huge difference in light output When I mentioned that the fitting may not be seated, many times I found the bulb adapter 2 - 3mm off in the fitting clamp. Sam should know after so many years immersed with Cinemeccanica USA  |  IP: Logged Demetris Thoupis Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1240 From: Aradippou, Larnaca, Cyprus Registered: Apr 2001 posted 05-08-2006 01:08 PM                     Even if there is an issue of the clamp not sitting correctly, doesn't the horizontal displacement sets the focus back in place? I never had a problem except with this specific cinema with this lamphouse.  |  IP: Logged
