I’m looking to let some of my camera go; I don’t shoot enough film to justify the amount of camera I have.
For your consideration is this lovely Bolex H-16 Rex4 with a Vivitar zoom 28-105mm F:2.8-3.8 (With Macro)
Comes with rewind crank and original Bolex case (design to be sturdy enough to stand on)
The Bolex H-16 Rex4 can be modified to Super 16 and is an amazing camera

I hope the pictures speak for themselves (and as you can see this baby has been well taking care of, no scratch or signs of wear)
If you happen to have question just write me an email

I don’t really have an asking price so I’m open to offer (buyer pays Shipping and Paypal fees)

Specs: http://www.bolexcollector.com/cameras/h16rex4.html


SPECS:
OVERALL DIMENSIONS: 8 1/2" x 6" x 3"
WEIGHT: Approximately 6 lbs
FILM CAPACITY: 100ft (30m) daylight loading spools of 16mm film.
THREADING: Automatic threading and loop forming. The end of the film is simply placed in a channel leading to the feed sprocket. The release is pressed and the film is then automatically threaded throughout the entire mechanism.
MOTOR: Constant speed, spring motor mechanism; governor controlled. Large winding handle folds downward and attaches to camera when not in use. Spring cannot be over-wound. 8:1 and 1:1 external drive shaft permits the attachment of an electric motor.
TURRET: Rotating turret with folding lever; Accommodates three interchangeable RX type C mount lenses; Built-in turret lock lever.
FILTER SLOT: Built-in slot holds a gelatin filter behind the taking lens and in front of the shutter.
VARIABLE SPEED: 12, 16, 18, 24, 32, 48 and 64 frames per second
RELEASE BUTTON: provides for the making of continuous exposures by a finger-tip release on the front of the camera. A side release allows for locked, hands-free running or single frame exposures.
VARIABLE SHUTTER: 133 degree variable shutter; Operated manually to decrease exposure time, or with accessory Rexofader to accomplish fade-ins and fade-outs.
FOOTAGE COUNTER: adds and subtracts accurately in forward or reverse motion and automatically returns to zero when film is reloaded into the camera.
AUDIBLE FOOTAGE INDICATOR: A distinct click announces the passing of each 10 inches of film through the gate. This mechanism may be disengaged, if desired, by simply moving a lever.
FRAME COUNTER: Twin dial counts frames individually and in total; Adds frames in forward motion and subtracts when film is wound backwards. Dial may be reset manually at any time.
SINGLE FRAME: Time lapse and animation is possible by using the side release button or an accessory cable release and adapter; I-T lever allows for timed or instantaneous single exposures.
MANUAL REWIND: Clutch disengages spring motor and permits forward movement and backwind without running down the spring; allows for dissolves and superimposition.
FLAT BASE: Contains three tripod sockets: Two 3/8" thread and one 1/4" thread. Front of the base is removable for easy mounting of the Bolex Matte Box.
