Bolex 155 Super
The Bolex 155 Super is a Super 8 cine camera, part of Bolex's amateur movie line introduced in the 1970s for home filmmakers shooting on the Super 8 cartridge format.
With only a single recorded UK auction hammer result on file — £23 in 1998 — there is no current price band to quote with confidence for what a Bolex 155 Super is worth today in 2026. Buyers researching value or how much one sells for at saleroom level should treat that figure as a historic data point rather than a guide to today's market, and condition along with working drive mechanism will dominate any realised price.

Frequently asked questions
What is a Bolex 155 Super worth?
The only UK auction hammer record on file is £23 from 1998, so a reliable current value cannot be established from the available sales data.
How much does a Bolex 155 Super sell for at auction?
Sales history is too thin to quote a typical price — the single recorded hammer result is £23, and a working example today would need a fresh sale to set a credible benchmark.
Is the Bolex 155 Super a Super 8 camera?
Yes, it is a Super 8 cine camera designed for the cartridge-loaded amateur movie format.
