History

Paillard-Bolex cameras were much used by adventurers, artists (New-American-Cinema groups), as well as nature films, documentaries, and are still favored by many animators. Over the years, notable Bolex users and owners include Andy Warhol, Peter Jackson, Steven Spielberg, Jonas Mekas, Jean-Luc Godard, Antoine de Saint-Exupéry, James Dean, David Lynch, Marilyn Monroe, Edmund Hillary, and Mahatma Gandhi While some later models are electrically powered, the majority of those manufactured since the 1930s use a spring-wound clockwork power system. The 16 mm spring wound Bolex is a popular introductory camera in film schools.
