Cheapest Super 16 or 16 camera?

[Mike Krumlauf]

I am very interested in purchasing a Super 16 or 16mm camera, and wanted to know the cheapest make and model for one, it can be used. Please dont forward me to ebay, i dont buy or sell from there.

Thanks

As many threads have already noted: Bolex (model rex 4 or rex 5). Don't go the Russian Bolex route as they aren't reflex (plus the quality is an issue). Interesting - I sold a Bolex on eBay and bought a Bolex on eBay. No problems. It's PayPal that I refuse to use. A Super16 conversion is about $1200 more expensive (a broad ballpark, assuming you're talking a 'used' one'); not including the lens. I shot all of my animation and slow motion on my Bolex Super16 and it intercut very nicely with the DVX.

Bottom line is the Krasnogorsk-3
