I had the pleasure of touring a 2 screen drive in both last week and they had two Motiagraph AAs in there. I noticed that they did not have any oil in then only some sort of white grease. Is this the norm for those things?
Also, what kind of shutters do those things have as the rear of the head is not very big?

They use a special grease....Gordon can tell you about that. The Motiographs use barrel shutters.
