Bolex Paillard H16 Movie Camera – Complete Vintage Set with Accessories, Film & Manuals – Switzerland, 1940s

The external frame counter is damaged and has a model plate of H16 S, which is NOT correct. This is an original H16.

Beautiful and complete Bolex Paillard H16 camera set, made in Switzerland. A fantastic piece of classic filmmaking gear, complete with everything you see in the photos.

Included in the lot:

Bolex Paillard H16 movie camera

Three lenses:

Switar 25mm f/1.4

Yvar 13mm f/2.8

Yvar 75mm f/2.8


Original large brown leather case, marked “Made in Switzerland” and “Bolex Paillard”

Rubber lens hood marked “OMEG 34 Swiss” (or similar)

Metal lens hood marked “Switzerland”

Lens caps and a selection of original parts and mechanical accessories are displayed on the white cloth

Two Kodachrome II 16mm film boxes — both contain film, one feels lighter than the other

Four original instruction manuals — most in English, one with a German copy

Exposure table card for daylight settings


Net weight (everything included): 4840 grams

Everything shown in the photos is included — nothing else comes with this lot.

We’ve taken photos of the entire set and camera from every angle for full transparency. The camera and accessories appear well-preserved and original.

Please take a good look at the photos, which are an integral part of the description.

This lot will be carefully packed, so it will get to its new owner exactly as it should
