Jean-Louis Seguin Posted April 29, 2010 Share Posted April 29, 2010 I just found this on vimeo: http://vimeo.com/11023577 It is a promotional film shot at the Paillard plant in Ste-Croix. Looks like it was shot in the 1960s. It shows fascinating images of the process of fabrication of their cameras. Cheers, Jean-Louis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member John Sprung Posted April 29, 2010 Premium Member Share Posted April 29, 2010 Yes, this is a treasure. From the cars and the airplane, I'd guess it to be mid-1950's. In the 1980's, that kind of manufacturing was revolutionized by computer based numerical control machines. -- J.S. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member Simon Wyss Posted August 21, 2010 Premium Member Share Posted August 21, 2010 Between 1960 and 1963. I can tell by the fact that the 200 series projectors were manufactured since 1960 and that the H cameras' housing was modified in 1962-63, available mid 1963.

Premium Member Oliver Christoph Kochs Posted August 28, 2010 Premium Member Share Posted August 28, 2010 This film, "Living Images", was shown at / made for the 1964 swiss Expo in Lausanne. Bolex CEO Marc Ueter told me that in an interview in 2008. This film was dubbed into several languages, i saw the german dubbed version on a DVD. Paillard was also responsible for special (tryptic) films about the expo 1964 shot by amateurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
