[Frameworks] Looking to buy Bolex or similar

[Jeff Kreines]

I’d avoid the EL — buggy electronics and hard to fix. Beaulieus are buggy, too. And don’t even think of a Scoopic...

Get a later Rex 5 (not for the magazines, but for the 13x viewfinder (vs 10x on the Rex 4 and earlier Rex 5s, and the 2x on Rex 1 and IIRC Rex 2. 

Get a 10mm Rx Switar and you’re good to go.
