H16S Film Camera
1963 era SN#202387
Your chance to own a piece of
Swiss precision craftsmanship.
This is an early type 3 model with the round base and serial number stamped on the tripod mount area. The Bolex is a spring drive movie camera. It cranks and runs smoothly in all frame rates. With features for single frame animation, back winding (crank included) for double exposure and film speeds of 12-16-18-24-32 48 and 64 frames per second. The camera is in excellent cosmetic condition. The frame counter, footage counter and audible footage indicator are all in working order.
Turret c-mount for 3 primes lenses with a turret lock. The Bolex accepts 16mm 100ft film spools inside empty spool included. Have not used the camera in some time, so the camera is being sold as is.
For the age looks to be in great condition with minimal wear.

brown leather case with storage areas and key.
The only issues that I am aware of is the small clip inside black handle on the hand crank is broken so the handle does not snap on the pin next to the tripod mount. The other issue is a very small area of the leather is peeling away on the bottom near the tripod mount on the door.
If you have any questions on the camera I will try and answer. Camera is sold as is, I have not shot with it in a long time.
Thanks for looking
