Cody Ryan Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Hi guys, was look to see if anyone knows if a Schneider 10mm f1.8 is usable on a H16 reflex. Looking for a 10mm to use on my Bolex and Milliken. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicholas Kovats Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Hi Cody, I do not have a definitive answer but should you be fine with the Schneider. It will be softer at large apertures (f1.8. 2.8, etc.) but should be fine at f5.6 and up. I suspect the image circle was designed to cover old school 1 inch "sensors" so it should provide good cover your Bolex 16mm camera. Which specific Bolex do you have? Here is a film I shot on my reflex Bolex UltraPan8 3.1 with a Carl Zeiss Jena Tevidon APO 10mm f2.0 C-mount lens with Bolex Bayonet adapter. This lens was originally meant to cover up to 1 inch CCTV cameras. Note that my C-Mount lens mount was not optimized for the extra wide gate of my camera and technically needed to be offset similar to a Super 16mm lens mount conversion. Cheers!

Matthias Streicher Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Hey Cody, would you be willing to provide any updates on the Cinegon on your Rex 3 H16? Is it working properly? Cheers, Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
