  1. Hi Dom and thank you very much for your answer. I guess I'll see if I can find someone able to do it here in France. Thanks again !
  2. Hello everyone, I’m reaching out for help because I have a Bolex H16 EBM ELECTRIC that works well, except the socket on the camera body is loose, which allows it to rotate. It’s a socket that’s set into the camera body and normally secured by a locknut from the inside. I came across Marko’s thread where he shared a repair manual for the Bolex EBM, and it seems that you need to access it through the magazine side of the camera rather than the side with the controls. That side (the operator side, not the magazine side) is actually just a plastic cover over a metal plate that is fixed to the camera body : The post : https://cinematography.com/index.php?/forums/topic/98109-bolex-ebm-repair-manual-link-below/ Direct link to the service manual : https://pdfhost.io/v/IJuNtjAap_BolexH16EBMService Has anyone here ever performed this kind of operation? Thanks in advance! Have a great day, everyone!
  3. Hi everyone. I'm findind this thread as i'm also struggling with my bolex EBM. @Jurjen Versteeg did you manage to make a single 12V DC to 7 Pin Tuchel cable ?
  4. Im' just saying that now it can be bought in the French version for a very affordable price. ("only costs", sorry for this mistake). Concerning "cinématographe" it would be translated by "cinema camera" and the book is about notes, reflexions, on the "cinema machine" as a metaphor for the whole art of cinema. Hope you'll find a cheaper one.
  5. Hey, do you by any chance read or speak French ? I'm really astonished by the price of this book in english as it only cost 5 euros in the original French version... I'm gonna look in book shops if I can find it in the English versions though. If I do, I'll send you a message :)
  6. you might want to take advices from this video, it's a masterclass from DP Dean Semler : the use of flicker lights can be very impressive for the "fire effect" you want to have.
  7. Thanks for your comment ! I'll definitely check if I can find the type of LED used or the colour spectre of some old LCD screens.
  8. I've been following this guy's videos for a while now and he's built a few things such as lighting gear for very cheap but nothing I had never seen. In his last video he shows how to build a light panel that aims to simulate a window, from old laptop screen. I really think that this is something that could have many applications for filmakers on a budget. The result seems very soft and close to what you could obtain with very expensive gear. Maybe there is another type of DIY gear that is close to this one but anyway, this is the first time I see something like that and I think it's awesome !
