Some Considerations in the Design of Sound-Proof Camera Housings

L. E. Clark

The fundamental requirement of a silent cover—“bungalow,” or “blimp,” as it is colloquially called—is that the device shall effectually keep the camera noise from getting out on the set. In general, it can be said that any device which lets camera noise be heard by a person of normal hearing standing more than four feet from the camera in an absolutely silent room, is not sufficiently quiet to cover all conditions. This is the fundamental consideration; all others, while they may be of major importance, are secondary to this.
