i just bought an aspheron lens 5.5mm and the preset switar 10mm lens in some auctions on ebay , to use with my rex5 . can anyone tell me a bit more about the lens, i have no background in film whatsoever and am starting from scratch.. things im keen to know are A ) do i need any other kind of adaptor to fit it onto the 10mm switar ? B) was £400 for both a good price? they seem in great condition C) anyone here use one what are your thoughts? thanks! j

ok thanks !

due to a faulty light meter ive consistently over exposed a reel of test film by around 2 stops, its already been sent off to be processed in Berlin . could this have been fixed in processing by under exposing it? is there any way they will fix it ? sorry for the stupid questions im a first timer .

cool thanks Rob

ive got an old h16 rex5 bolex with a tobin motor , it produces quite a racket, what techniques/equipment do i need to get around this problem when recording sound on set? thanks!
