| Bolex H16 Reflex Camera |
I borrowed the Bolex from college on a couple of occasions before using it to film, in order to perform test loads, familiarise myself with it and to record a demo of it being loaded with film, which I shall upload once editing is complete. The loading mechanism is a quality piece of engineering as it virtually loads itself. It’s a really nice camera.
After having to put off a couple of planned trips out to
film shots, when I finally got out it was a dry but gloomy day. I thought
that since it had a macro lens on it I should do some macro shots. I filmed
small objects in the house before venturing outside with the camera and taking
a walk to Albert Park. I took some bread for the ducks to tempt them closer for
as few shots and then planned to walk through the avenue of trees which run
through the centre of the park which usually looks lovely at any time of year
to the fountain and out the front gates by the Dorman Museum. In practice I
didn’t get as far as the fountain before my film ran out (which they turned off
as I got there anyway).
