TAMASHII Primes - Ancient Optics

The TAMASHII Primes are reimagined lightweight Japanese vintage primes based on lenses from the 1960’s to 1980’s. They feature modern cinema housings in PL mount engineered by Zero Optik and Ancient Optics with standard front diameter sizes and gear positioning. The set is very well matched and exhibits excellent sharpness wide open with next to no chromatic aberration. Their flares are beautifully multi-colored and their bokeh is smooth and bubbly, with a slight cat's eye. They render the background well without muddling, while keeping subjects in sharp focus, even while wide open.
