The Widelux was a film camera series with an unusual rotating lens – but more than 20 years after the camera was discontinued, Oscar-winning actor Jeff Bridges decided to bring the iconic camera back. The re-made WideluxX film camera opened for the first pre-orders on April 28.
Bridges has been sharing his journey to recreate the camera since at least 2023, and now the revived WideluxX – spelled with two Xs to differentiate from the original Widelux – is nearing completion and taking the first batch of pre-orders.
