With it’s no battery – hand-cranked, solid and reliable approach to lightweight, handheld Super 16mm the Bolex never lets you down. Perfect for getting shots that are difficult with larger and heavier cameras the Bolex is easy to hold and easy to shoot at a moments notice.

Capturing in Super16 opens up the world of widescreen and embraces modern tastes  making this an ideal camera to integrate into Super16 workflows with our 416 and SR3. The PL lens adaptor means you can interchange the lenses from your primary cameras. Having this PL option opens up shooting with a wide range of high-speed zooms and primes allowing the same kind of optical performance as your primary systems.

With a top speed of 64fps the camera offers a surprisingly high frame rate for capturing slow motion. The reduced take-length as dictated by the winding of the spring coupled with the absence of video assist means the Bolex won’t be your first choice for every project but for additional shooting, personal projects and a low-profile this is an unbeatable classic.
