bolex RX- 10mm schneider (non RX) lens compatible?

Post by **Justin Lovell** » Mon Sep 18, 2006 3:52 pm

the bummer about this:

1. who shoots with 75mm lenses or higher in normal circumstances?
2. How often are you stuck in a room on an independent production that is ridiculously small?
3. If you're going to try and shoot with a non-rx lens at night, you're probably going to be shooting 500t wide open, but hey, wait a minute, you have to be shooting at least at 4.0 to have an image that isn't soft with a non-rx lens.

Thank you for designing the reflex bolex to require RX lenses!

What's the problem with RX lenses? They work fine. Just buy some RX lenses and your focus problem goes away.

I have a set of RX lenses, but not all the lenses that I would like to have.

I have some additional lenses that I use on my beaulieu, but I can't use them on my Reflex bolex unless I can stop down. Also I've got some nikon lenses and a c-mount adapter that I would like to use, but I run into the same issue.

If money weren't an issue, sure I'd go out and buy all the lenses I want.
