Here we are posing with our Bolex Rex5 16mm camera. We initially intended to shoot the film on a mint condition 8mm Bolex Chuck had sitting on a shelf in it's original box. But then somewhat serendipitously, a friend, who owed me a bit of money, was just happening to be unloading this Rex5. We ran a plethora of light leak tests and shot several hundred feet through a series of lenses: a 25mm, 75mm YVAR and a 10mm. The footage was stunning. So much so that when we considered shooting on digital (which has come a long long long way,) we still opted for film.
Who's the tool?
