- The extreme eXpressive "X" tuning option which offers a softer look with more extreme halation and aberration during flaring as well as the most focus fall off of the three tunings.
- The XT Tuning (X-Tuned lenses with more subtle T-flare) are custom tuned lenses that are single coated (the same as with T and X lenses), with edge uncoated (X). They have the same sharpness, warmth, lifted shadows, and focus falloff that we have come to expect from the binaries, with more subtle flares. The lenticular, rainbow flare, is only present in extreme situations and it’s far more subtle and controlled compared to the binaries. Without the rainbow pupil flare, you can see the more subtle purple and blue ghost effects caused when flaring the Blackwings lovely single layer coatings.
- The "B" tuned Blackwings have the same multi-coated lens elements from the "S" tuned range, so they perform the same in terms of light management and flare control. "B" tuned lenses exhibit a green/blue ghost flare and the optics have the edge-uncoating from the "X" tuned range, so they are lower in contrast. These lenses have the same optical prescription as the "T" tuned lenses giving them similar characteristics when stopped down.
- Prior to release of these production tunings Tribe7 produced the Binary Blackwings, which feature a silver housing and are similar in tuning to the "T" tuning production lenses. Tribe7 continues to work on additional tuning combinations that may become available in the future.

ZEISS Contax Primes
Based on 1980's still lenses, these rehoused Contax/Zeiss Primes do not have consistent maximum aperture’s across the range. Optically fairly sharp and slightly lower contrast when compared to similar vintage still lenses, and looks similar in character to the Zeiss Super Speed’s.
Available to rental in Canada only.

ZEISS Supreme Radiance Primes
The Supreme Primes Radiance are a modification of the original Supreme Prime. They offer the same features as the original Supremes, but feature a different coating process which enhances and controls flares without loss of contrast or T-stop.
