If the camera works in the last photo, I have a ww2 16mm projector to view the footage on, btw.

I was wondering if that camera actually worked!

can you still get the film for it???

no, it's a 16mm (swiss made, dates from between 1938 & 1940)

If its the bolex is saw at Waltham Abbey then I think it uses 8mm film (just like mine).

Film still available at:

http://www.widescreen-centre.co.uk/Cata ... _Film.html

And its a LOT less expensive than the last time I bought some! They also do 16mm film.

Edited to add: Standard 8 film is 16mm wide. You run it through the camera once, turn it over and run it through again and when its developed the split it and join the ends.
Wolfangel, what projector do you have?

Hi Botty,
Thanks for the tips on the film, my bolex cameras are H16s so i'm assuming they are 16mm. Is yours the H8 version?

Chris,
it was good to meet you too, glad you enjoyed your first event! can't wait for the next one!

here's a couple more photos from Renishaw.....(including Alex getting a kicking!!)

Cheers Alex, it was a great little scenario you came up with. getting abused by the feldgendarmarie does seem to be a bit of a crowd pleaser
