What it is

{"overview":"The Bell & Howell Filmo 70DA is a 16mm spring-driven cine camera, part of the Filmo 70 series of hand-cranked motion picture cameras introduced in the early 20th century. As of today in 2026, that figure is the only reliable data point on what one of these sells for at wholesale auction level, so any wider price range should be treated as indicative rather than established.","buying_guide":"On any spring-wound Filmo, check that the clockwork motor runs at a steady speed and does not stall, that the shutter and claw mechanism cycle cleanly, and that the lens turret rotates and locks without play.
