Super 16 Bolex?

I am considering getting a super 16 Bolex, and thought I'd solicit some
thoughts.

1. What opinion is there out there generally on the merits of a S16 Bolex
(NOT opinions on the S16 format, please! Unless, of course, they're really,
really clever)?

2. Thoughts on people or companies that do the conversion? I have been
considering Guy Bodart at CAMERASPRO.

3. Lenses: what is a good Bayonet mount zoom that will cover S16? Is there
such a thing? Can a Switar or Angenieux be used or modified?

4. Does anyone out there have such a one?

Thanks!

Oh, and while I'm at it, I might as well ask if anyone has an optical
printer for sale...
