This Bolex P1 Zoom Reflex 8-mm movie camera provides through-the-lens viewing, similar to a single-lens-reflex 35-mm camera. The movie camera uses spools of film that go through the camera twice.
The viewfinder has a split-image rangefinder. There is a diopter adjustment for eyesight. The rubber eyecup is in good condition.
The camera is powered by a hand-wound, spring motor this is controlled by a govenor. The camera can shoot at frame rates between 12 and 64 frames per second (slow motion).
The shutter opening can be varied from 0 to 165 degrees to control exposure times and to provide fades.
A small hand crank allows the film to be rewound up to 60 frames.
The camera has an electronic exposure meter powered by a battery.
The camera was manufactured in the 1960s. It has not been used in many years. However the spring-wound motor operates and the focus, zoom and f/stop still appear to work.
The camera is supplied with the original hand grip and the case. The camera is used, but is in excellent condition.
I am happy to ship this camera anywhere in the world. It belonged to my father-in-law, who used it for both family and work in the UK and in Australia.
If you have questions, please give me a call.
