Premium Member Gregory Irwin Posted May 26, 2022 Premium Member Posted May 26, 2022 Hi all… Does anyone know who and where one can have a spring wound, Bolex reflex camera converted from standard 16mm to super 16? Many thanks! G
Premium Member Dom Jaeger Posted May 27, 2022 Premium Member Posted May 27, 2022 Not your usual camera choice Greg.. ? There are only a few options left that I'm aware of. Jean-Louis Seguin, who posts here sometimes, is the best Bolex tech I know, and does excellent conversions, but I believe he is semi-retired now so may not be taking on new jobs. You could ask him though: bolextech@gmail.com Otherwise there is Dr Bolex, who also posts here sometimes as Arthur Sanchez: https://www.drbolex.com/super-16mm Or Cameraspro, whose conversions seem OK from the one or two I've seen: https://bolexsuper16.com/ Across the pond in the UK there is a company that converts Bolexes called Stecica: https://www.stecica.com/ Unfortunately I can't recommend Les Bosher anymore.
