I’m interested in buying a 16mm film camera, but I can’t seem to find anywhere in the UK that actually sells one. I don’t wish to rent, I do want to buy one.
I know you can occasionally get old Bolex one on ebay, but I’m looking for a modern unit.

Does anyone have any ideas on prices or availability?

Thanks for your help.

I have no idea, but if you know rental houses you could try to
contact them to see if they sell (used) equipment or know of
companies that do?

Cheers for the suggestion, I’ll try Lee Lighting and see if they have any contacts.

Richard,

Take a look at:
http://www.widescreen-centre.co.uk/cine.php

They stock everything you might need to shoot film.
