Portland Based Koerner Camera was recently featured in a “mini doc” from Cine D called “Rentals, Repairs, and Rock’n’Roll – Behind-the-Scenes at Koerner Camera Systems.”
Cine D took time to visit Koerner Camera Systems, the largest camera rental house north of Los Angeles with offices in both Portland and Seattle, and talked to owner Michael Koerner about the history of his business.
Michael started out as a camera assistant and got his first ARRI-S. Then he bought an SR-2 and SR-3 and started renting out his cameras, marking the beginning of his business, which has now grown to 13 employees.
Says Koerner, “I’d like to see that camera back on a shelf all beat up, thinking it went to a lot of places and did a lot of cool stuff.”
Oh yeh, we agree.
