  1. Ok thank you for your help I think it will be best if I just have someone look at the camera
  2. It seems as adjusting the loop former screw is what I need to be doing but I am having trouble finding the right position for i have tried it many times and it is still having the same problem where the claw is missing the film sprockets
  3. thanks a lot I will try to do those things you mentioned and see if it helps at all
  4. I dont know what its called but the thing under the pressure plate that seems to pull the film by the gate is what is causing my problem it misses the sprockets and damages the film, so if anyone knows what I should do please let me know
  5. Hi, I got a new Sbm and havent used it yet but when loading the film it jams when passing through the pressure plate and ends up cutting up the sprockets of the film and the film itself. Does anyone know what is happening here? or has anyone had this problem before? thank you

    light meters

    What is a good light meter for a bolex sbm under $200
  9. Is there a Wide angle 10mm bayonet mount lens that fits on the bolex sbm? or do i need to use a bayonet to C adapter and if so does the adapter effect the image at all?
  10. Hi, I was wondering if there was any way to take the whole front lens off of a vx2000 and replace it with the front of a sony vx1000. What I am trying to achieve is a sony vx2000 that has a front bayonet mount of 52mm without using a step down ring. The reason for doing this is centurys .3x fisheye lens works a whole lot better on a vx1000 then on a vx2000, but the vx1000 sucks in all other ways besides the lens. I have seen someone modify their dvx100 by rigging it with a c mount or some other cine lens mount so they could use other lenses. I am probably crazy and this would never work but anyone who knows of a place that could do this or a way to do this please tell me. thank you

  16. Where is a good place to purchase super 8 film? also what is a good cheap place i can get super 8 processed at?
  17. Looking for a good working Rx4, Rx5, SBM or any of the later bolex models. Lenses are optional but I am also interested in a few lenses as well. Let me know what you have and what your prices are. Thank you Russellhoughten@yahoo.com
  18. Also in low light should I leave the exposure all the way up when using the timed exposure feature? or should i make it lower since the shutter is exposing the film for so long?
  19. Where is a good cheap place i can process and transfer some plus-x and ektachrome film at? I used to process and transfer super 8 myself but it wouldn't come out as clear, I looked online and it seemed pretty expensive to process and transfer super 8 film. Thank You
