The éclair NPR (Noiseless Portable Reflex, earlier “ECLAIR 16”) is a 16mm film camera originally manufactured in the early 60’s and the first one of its kind. By the standards of the day the NPR was a small, quiet camera that allowed sync-sound shooting. The NPR helped to revolutionize the art of film-making with various technical innovations. The NPR is considered a major contributor to the French New Wave genre and enabled independent filmmakers to create movies outside the confines of a major studio.
