Bolex H16 Eyecups

[Dennis Toeppen]

Howdy,

Two questions plague me this evening:

1) Does anyone know where to get original Bolex eyecups? I was going to order a couple from Jesse Chambless, but he has passed away. This is very bad news. He knew everything and was very generous with his time. The eyecups that Calkovsky sells aren't the right shape (they're not cup-like at the eyepiece) and I wouldn't buy anything from him even if they were. 

2) Has anyone ever tried 3383 as a camera film? I have 3000' of it perfed double 8 and was thinking of trying it in an H8. 

Thanks in advance for any responses.

Update: I was able to order two eyecups from Procam for $46 each. These are the OEM eyecups with the smooth transitions on the eyecup rim. Yes, I'm a bit particular. I believe it is genetic.
