Bolex products were considered the "Mercedes of photographic equipment". This very stylish projector was a true design hit and a bestseller; 158,000 models M8 and M8R were produced in ten years. It had a streamlined housing at the rear, which covered the transmission for the take-up reel, and a small bright red start/stop button. The projector was furnished with a power outlet that could be used to feed a table lamp, which switched off automatically on projection; an automatic loop former for film protection; hinged lamp receptacle for quick changing; specially coated Ken-Paillard 20mm f/1.6 lens for a bigger and brighter picture; a 400 foot reel capacity; and a new colour-correcting condensing system (see Ref. 1 in Supp. Info.). - Area Notes
