- Description
- Black and silver metal Bolex H16 REX-5 spring-would clockwork 16mm movie camera with a light grey rubber eye piece, various dials and a crank on the right-hand side, a leather strap over the top that hinges up and down on a silver metal bracket, and a 1:1,6 f=10mm lens. The whole of the left-hand side of the camera is a panel that opens to expose the spokes for the film reels, one of which is still present. On the bottom of the camera is a spot for the camera to screwed into a mount or tripod. The camera still functions when the crank is turned and the trigger button under the lens is pressed, but there is no film in it. Also includes viewfinder attachment that no longer fits onto the camera - viewfinder would latch onto the left-hand side of the camera and lines up with the lens.
