What it is
{"overview":"The Beaulieu R16 Automatic is a 16mm cine camera produced by the French manufacturer Beaulieu. Because that result is wholesale-level — a hammer price excluding commission — and more than two decades old, today's value is best confirmed by checking current listings before buying or selling.","buying_guide":"Beaulieu cine cameras of this generation are condition-sensitive: inspect the motor for smooth running at all marked speeds, check the reflex viewfinder for clarity, and confirm the battery compartment is free of corrosion.
