[Frameworks] BOLEX H16 "Super 16mm" lens options.

[Mark Ostrowski]

Dear All,

I have a Bolex H16 with a Super 16mm-widened gate.  I have been using the Vario-Kern zoom lens.  My problem is that the lens vignettes when
shooting wider than 26mm.  I am looking for a lighter-more compact alternative(s), thinking of traveling, both zoom and prime that will not vignette on the S16 format.  
I am assuming I will have to go C Mount for which I already have an adapter.

I am not sure if vignetting will be an issue whenever going wider than 26mm.  The 26mm Kern lens looks good but pricewise impossible.
I saw this lens: that looks good but again don’t know how it works with S16:
Schneider Kreuznach Variogon 1.8 12.5 75 C


Any comments appreciated.

Thanks
