anormphia Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 I recently came into a Bolex 16-F 2x anamorphic lens in mint condition, with caps, box, and case. I can't seem to find any information on this lens, leaving me to think it's very rare. Bolex is quite a popular name in the anamorphic brand list, Does anyone happen to have any more information on this lens? History, rarity, going-price?

valid Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Look up Sankor/Singer 16F - this is just a rebrand of the same lens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anormphia Posted July 30, 2015 Author Share Posted July 30, 2015 Look up Sankor/Singer 16F - this is just a rebrand of the same lensAn official Bolex rebrand, or fake? Because I cannot find anything on this Bolex lens, but that might not be evidence for either side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Most probably an official rebrand. But it's still the same lens as Eiki / Sankor / Sun / etc. Just a lens that has been sold under a lot of names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ken Posted July 30, 2015 Share Posted July 30, 2015 Recently, there is a EIKI start at $100 no one bid. And relisted gone up to $140.IMO, EIKI is better then Sankor. It's front thread is standard 52mm x0.75. Sankor looks like 52mm x0.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
