Does Anybody know of a 35mm camera that is similar to the bolex. I don't care about the spring wind up. I am looking to do a timelapse test and just wanted to see whats out there. Obiviously I would rather use a 435 with a intervalometer but this needs to be very cheap Any help would be appreciated. thanks
Bolsey emigrated from Ukraine to Switzerland after finishing school to study medicine in Geneva. In 1924 he opened his first company Bol/Bolex SA, to market his 35mm movie camera the Cinématographe Bol and later his 16mm Bolex. In 1930 Paillard SA of Ste-Croix purchased Bol/Bolex SA and appointed Bolsky the engineering consultant to their newly-created department Ciné-Bolex. The Bolex camera that Bolsey invented went on to become an industry standard, and the history of Bolsey and the Bolex camera can be seen in Beyond the Bolex documentary created by his descendant and producer, Alyssa Bolsey.
Three years after his invention of the Bolex in 1933 Bolsey produced several prototypes of what was even then a revolutionary camera; a 35mm single lens reflex or SLR camera. Bolsey first contacted the Swiss firm Pignons SA, a manufacturer of watch parts, to build the camera, and by 1938 Bolsey had refined his design creating the Bolca/Bolsey Reflex 35mm SLR. This was later called the Alpa Reflex after Bolsey sold the rights to Pignons SA. This was the first in a long line of cameras bearing the prestigious ALPA name, and elements of this camera were incorporated into the Bolsey Model C.
The Model C was first released in 1948, less than two years after the end of WWII and at the start of the greatest era of prosperity in the United States. The camera is basically the Bolsey B2 with a waist level finder added, making it the only 35mm TLR camera that also has a rangefinder mechanism. As I said, this is a weird and quirky camera and the design epitomizes this. All the Bolsey cameras use the same trapezoidal shape that was typified by Exakta cameras, wide front to back and narrowing at each end.
The twin-lens reflex waist-level finder is what makes the Bolsey Model C so distinctive. Only a handful of 35mm TLR cameras were ever made. With waist level finder folded down the camera can be used as a regular rangefinder camera identical to the Bolsey B2 that it is based upon, however, open the waist level finder by popping it up and you can see the image visible through the viewing lens in the small focusing screen. The screen is small, about the same as that on the early EXA camera, but not as bright and it can be difficult to focus even with the use of the fold up loupe (magnifier) inside the finder.
We have classic lenses in 35mm and 16mm format, for sale and for rent. Super Baltars, Zeiss Super Speeds, Angenieuxs, Switars, Kinoptiks, Cooke Speed Panchros, Canon K35 Zooms, cinestyled Leicas - we carry it all.
Now computer based non-linear editing and post-production tools are used to manipulate the speed of the images, as well as the other spin-off effects associated with multiple speed coverage of shots. Computers can mimic many of the attributes of traditional film, including the familiar scratching-of-the-emulsion, various dust and light leak effects, when the material has in fact been shot on digital video. I've lost count of students who ask me how to make their miniDV sourced video material look as if it had been filmed on 35mm panavision, with 1:185 aspect ratio. 59ce067264
