super tutorial. Thanks

Long live the Bolex!

The mechanism of the model H camera was developed in 1930-31. It contains elements of machinery first made in 1895. So much for a history lesson. I’m a movie equipment technician. If you need assistance, contact me anytime.

That’s fascinating!

[@digunderwater5395]

nice video Zach!

[@truefilm6991]

Great video! That is a very nice camera and gorgeous footage. Looking forward to your upcoming footage. Subscribed!

Shot on Bolex in film school.

[@orangebetsy]

Great presentation of this beauty. When your footage went to 16:9 AR had you framed the shots of the cute baby then cropped in until you had 16:9?

[@The11thPower]

Great video, I may pick up one for productions, still figuring our total costs for developing etc

[@tarunindoriya902]

Have you figured it out ? I want to know the cost...

[@artjonshahaj7291]

Dont run it over 24fps with no film loaded in it.
Awsome machine

[@the_kid-i1k]

[@STGFilmmakers]

Were those test shots of the baby cropped in?

[@zphillips]

Nope, that's the full frame. I haven't converted this to super16, which I understand is something that people do.
