Why Stock Photos?
The short answer is that we use stock photos on some listings to save us time and to save you money. The longer answer is that we love to take photos of each and every lens, camera, and accessory, but doing so takes a lot of time and makes it difficult to get everything listed. So, we decided to compromise: take gorgeous photos of some things and charge a little more for them, and use stock photos for other items and charge a little less for those, all else equal.
The items listed here were tested thoroughly by our trained technicians. If they observed any significant flaws, you’ll see them detailed above. If the items listed here are exceptionally awesome, you’ll see that noted above too. Regardless, please remember this is a used item and it’s bound to have at least a microscopic imperfection.
If you're interested in purchasing an item with specific photos and ratings, we don’t blame you one bit. Please visit one of our Exposed! listings (if available), usually marked with a green badge. If none are currently available, by all means, contact us.

The Ambient ACL 204 Lockit Sync Box
The Ambient ACL 204 Lockit Sync Box is a timecode generator and portable synchronizer for cinema cameras. Key features include:
Portable Timecode Synchronizer._ Timecode. On a film set, timecode is kind of like the force in Star Wars- it surrounds us and binds us. It’s in the camera, it’s in the audio recorder… it’s in multiple cameras if you have them. And the Lockit Sync Box is kind of like Luke at the end of Jedi – it brings balance to the force… or in this case synchronization to the timecode.
Crystal Sync and Industry Standards.__ When you hear the phrase Crystal Oscillator, you may be transported back to that space-sci-fi-fantasy metaphor from earlier, but in terms of sound recording it is simply the industry standard for maintaining sync between picture and sound. The Lockit system boasts an incredible 0.5 frame slip over a 24 hour period. Moreover, this little blue box offers support for all sync and genlock formats and timecode rates, as well as offset to compensate for processing delay.
Smart and Tough Design. The entire unit is powered by two AA batteries, features a rugged, robust housing, and an OLED display for quick changes.Are we out of stock?
