Wie entstand die Bolex Paillard D8L? (1959) - Doppel-8-Kamera

#photodiamantakis #studioanalog #bolexd8l It runs like a Swiss watch, the 1959 Bolex Paillard D8L. Swiss camera manufacturer Bolex Paillard introduced its first dual 8mm "pocket" camera in 1942. The "L8", this was a single lens camera with a fairly small viewfinder. In the 1950s came the C, B and D series models, which featured dual or triple nosepieces, vari-focal viewfinders, multiple speeds, through-the-lens metering and rewind functionality. Bolex engineers managed to keep the size of the "pocket camera" while continuously adding features. In 1959, the "three-lens revolver" D8L was introduced. This was further developed and improved in the following years. The 1961 D8LA was the culmination of this development and one of the finest dual 8mm cameras ever made. 00:00 Introduction 00:19 Description of the Bolex Paillard D8L 01:25 History of Bolex Paillard company 04:33 Closing words More information about me: https://www.filmklubspittal.com/blog/...
