in the days of unparalleled popularity of bolex reflex models there was still great demand for more economical non-reflex cameras. bolex therefore introduced two almost identical 3-lens turret models similar to the bolex supreme, however, without filter slot and with less sophisticated viewfinder system. the multifocal octameter on the lid was replaced with 5-position preview finder and the eye level focuser (available as an optional accessory) was replaced by focusing eyecup with magnifier on model h-16 t.
