Aaton Penelope
Aaton Penelope is a 35mm motion picture camera introduced by Aaton in October 2008. It is the first camera in the world designed as a switchable Techniscope or 3-perf shooting solution (2 perf-native and 3 perf user-switchable), and it is also the first 35mm camera to offer a progressive scan video-tap.[1] It accepts a digital magazine and therefore provides 4K digital output for true HD filming.[2]
The Aaton Penelope is used by Scott Duncan to shoot the TV show Celebrity Apprentice,[3] and cinematographer Hoyte van Hoytema has completed principal photography on The Fighter using Aaton Penelope cameras configured for 2-perf.[4]

gollark: Something like that anyway.
gollark: Well, if you're using Express, then:```javascriptapp.use(express.urlencoded())app.post("/", (req, res) => res.send(JSON.stringify(req.body)))```ought to work.
