Bolex SBM 16mm camera package for sale.

[John Salim]

Up for sale is my Bolex SBM ( standard 16mm ) camera with accessories.

 

S ‘Spring motor drive’

B ‘Bayonet lens mount’

M ‘400ft Magazine capability’

 

The SBM was Bolex’s last spring motor drive camera made and has many advanced

features. It’s a very versatile camera and mainly suitable for tripod use without live

sound recording as like all Bolex’s it’s a little noisy when running.

 

This particular camera body is ( apart from two minor marks ) in near mint condition

with less than 2000ft ever run through it.

 

Both camera and lens are fully upgradable to super 16mm by Bolex.

 

It comes with a Bolex to Nikon F lens adapter so you can use your favorite Nikkor lenses !
