In an original fitted Bolex camera case (for the H16 - Rex-5) - (without a key) with some wear and use marks to the exterior and interior, a Bolex H8 Rex-4 Reflex Camera with the serial number 2132573 (dating the camera to 1964) being shown on the flat tripod base.  The film sprockets are single tooth.  There is a viewfinder on the side with a telescopic adjuster and an eyepeice; below is has a slide up and out f=55mm prism.  Lens turret rotates.  the film compartment door has a tight fit.  The case contains a accessory viewfinder box, 6 filter discs oin plastic sleeves - most look like they need a clean - three are marked ASA Series 5 A/D x2.  There are also two lens mount caps and two rear lens caps.  There is a rolled up plastic bg marked "Screw off RX fader" - so presumably this needs to go back on and a small winding crank.  
 
The three lenses fitted by C mounts to the lens turret are all with front lens caps, hoods and three more filters (which need a clean) and small rod handles to assist focusing etc.  The lenses are Switar f1.6 5.5mm H8RX- a Wide angle lens, specifically designed for the H-8 REX camera. It featured a pre-set diaphragm, Visifocus depth of field scale and minimum focusing distance of 4 1/2 inches. Series V filters could be attached.  The aperture and focus are smooth. Into loght there is internal edge separation which leaves a clear "rectangular" shape in the centre. Definitely could do with a clean.
