Re: [Frameworks] Super 16 - Bolex H 16
What they mean is that it's single-perf stock, so just check to see if your Bolex can run it-- the really old ones cannot (pre 1950 or so). There's a specific serial number cut-off which I can't recall now, but it can be easily found at many Bolex websites. Dear Friends, I have a Bolex H16. I have always used normal 16mm stock to shoot with this camera. However, Kodak (India) says that they can only import super 16mm black and white stock. I wanted to make sure it is possible for me to use Super 16mm stock with my bolex before ordering the same.

I'm sure many people on this list can recommend labs they have worked with. I work with Jack Rizzo in New York. He is a good technician who can find solutions to problems and he is experimental-filmmaker-friendly! At 16:17 +0530 25/12/12, Shumona Goel wrote: >Ok, I just wanted to make sure before shooting.

Re: [Frameworks] Super 16 - Bolex H 16
Ok, I just wanted to make sure before shooting. Do you have a lab you can recommend for processing 16mm and blow up to 35mm? The blow up is not yet confirmed (depends on sound issues) but would be good to be prepared from now. There are no labs in Bombay that are processing black and white anymore. Had some trouble with labs abroad as well, so any reliable recommendations would be helpful. tx On Tue, Dec 25, 2012 at 4:10 PM, Pip Chodorov wrote: > You don't have to lose any.

Re: [Frameworks] Super 16 - Bolex H 16
You don't have to lose any. The 16mm stock will capture a full 16mm frame. When you blow up you can choose how you frame it - whether the image remains 1.33 with black on the sides, or if you zoom in to make a 1.66 or 1.85 picture with the top and bottom cut off, or if you choose an academy gate (1.33, but many projectionists won't have that gate and will cut off the top and bottom anyway). You should talk with the people who will help you with the blow-up before you shoot. At 16:05 +0530 25/12/12, Shumona Goel wrote: >Thanks, Pip.

Re: [Frameworks] Super 16 - Bolex H 16
Thanks, Pip. In case I need to blow up to 35mm, how much picture will I lose? Is it possible to get the full normal 16mm frame in the blow up?

Re: [Frameworks] Super 16 - Bolex H 16
Hi Shumona, Yes it's the same - it's just single perf (so a super-16 camera can shoot a wider picture to the edge) Pip At 15:54 +0530 25/12/12, Shumona Goel wrote: >Dear Friends, > >I have a Bolex H16.
