FOR SALE. BOLEX H16 REX 1.

This is a clean, tidy and Film tested Rex 1.

It's been a staple of our training courses shooting thousands of feet of film with us.

Bolexes can't be beaten for their balance of features and portability.

Will be sad to see this one go but with our reduced activity and the fact we have a Rex5/Arri 16 SR setup it's better it goes to someone who will use / cherish it!

DM if interested.

FOR SALE. BOLEX H16 REX 1.

This one is special.

This Rex 1 was CLAd and Optically refurbished by Dom Jaeger in 2022 - at a cost of £500. The viewfinder and prism were completely refreshed by Dom who is a stand-out technician for Arri in Melbourne.

We've used this camera for a range of shoots and it's been a dream.

It comes with the flat base attachment, filter holder (a MUST!) and take up spool (Metal).

Will be sad to see this one go but with our reduced activity and the fact we have a Rex5/Arri 16 SR setup it's better it goes to someone who will use / cherish it!
