Bolex P1 or P2 Manual?

Re: Bolex P1 or P2 Manual?
If you can't find one for free to download I would recommend buying the Focal Camera Guide - Bolex 8 Guide. Its a 120 page book!
It won't cost much more than buying a manual. It has very detailed info on the cameras and functions. I think it is better than the actual camera manual!
You can buy a copy (a bound photocopy) from here http://www.oldtimercameras.com/focalbooks/all.asp.
The Bolex H 8:H 16 -Series Guide is also excellent if you have or are thinking of buying an h8 or H16.
I learned more about how to use these camera from these books than I ever could have from the bolex manuals for them.
Happy shooting,
Chris.
