Thanks for the help guys much appreciated! I'm going to do a proper video tomorrow as I'm not at work.

I recently received a Rex 5 for a shoot. I have my own h16 reflex and have had no problems loading it. The rex5, however, doesn't seem to want to take the film maybe I'm doing something wrong? Need some help ASAP as my shoot is in a week. Cheers

The spool seems to just jam and not thread the film through unless I add a bit of pressure onto the loop formers do I perhaps need to adjust them? If so how would I do this?

Nice ! Looking to do something similar in the near future. Please do keep us posted, this will be very helpful.

Thanks guys your help is much appreciated. I will ask the seller about the ffd and aluminium threading but fingers crossed it should work!

Made a typo and not sure how to delete the post haha :wacko:

Basically I have a meteor 5-1 m42 lens and want to adapt it to a bolex h16.... saw this on ebay but unsure if it would work.

Graduate in the summer and would like to shoot my own film on 16mm. Preferably looking for a bolex sbm or rex 5 but don't mind as long as it's reliable!
