- 2012, Jack Anderson, Shooting Movies Without Shooting Yourself in the Foot, page 216:
- The great Arri S and M models were workhorses of nonsync filming in the 1970s. They're still great cameras, and you can buy used ones for a pittance. If you're not recording dialogue, they'll be fine. […] If you don't mind windup, spring-driven cameras, the Bolex 16s are good nonsync cameras.
