The Proteus Silver Anamorphics are a modern Super35 2x anamorphic lens set introduced by Laowa. They offer a sharp and clean image with pleasing skin tone reproduction and minimal optical aberration, all in a robust modern package. Each lens is tuned to a specific colored flare, with the Silver flare model offering a neutral white flare that captures the color of whatever light is producing the flare within the lens.

The uncoated version of the ZEISS Super Speed offers the same unique look of the Super Speed, but with reduced coatings for more intense flaring and a lower contrast look.

The NEO-AO Anamorphics were designed to emulate vintage anamorphics from the mid-20th century, such as the TODD-AO and Cineovision anamorphics. They use a combination of Cooke Speed Panchro and Canon FD spherical groups married to an anamorphic optic to create their unique look. Each lens is mechanically robust, with uniform gear spacing and bullet proof construction.

The Standard Speed LOMO primes were produced in the 1950’s and exhibit unique vintage characteristics. Known for their softer lower contrast image, the LOMO sphericals produce a beautiful dreamy vintage image that is unique among vintage primes from the era. The lenses are mechanically vintage as well, with telescoping focus groups.

The Leitz HUGO primes are an officially rehoused variant of the Leica M 0.8 Prime lenses. They feature the same optical characteristics as the M 0.8’s, including excellent image quality with enough imperfections to be aesthetically pleasing. They reproduce skin tones and render highlights beautifully, while exhibiting an attractive amount of edge falloff. The housings are of modern Leitz quality, with uniform focus and iris gears and an LPL mount. The set also includes an additional 50mm focal length Noctilux model with a faster T1 stop for super low light cinematography.

The Technovision Classic 35-70mm is one of the early full frame anamorphic lenses made by P+S Technik. Featuring a squeeze of 1.5x, the zoom covers large format sensors well. It exhibits unique anamorphic bokeh and horizontal flaring, with pleasing edge fall off and exaggerated character. It feels almost vintage, while still being fairly sharp and modern in its design.

Dating back to the 1970’s, Cineovision Anamorphics are vintage lenses with more character than many lenses of the era. They render warm pleasing skin tones with unique anamorphic bokeh. They defocus in a painterly manner and produce star-like horizontal anamorphic flares. Cineovisions err on the softer side and feature a sharper center with more fall off on the edges than modern anamorphic lenses.

Minolta Rocker Primes were originally released in the 1960’s and 70’s as still photography lenses. The lenses render color in warm contrast with sharp detail reproduction and decent flare control. These models have been rehoused by GL Optics and feature uniform 0.8 pitch gears and 110mm front diameters.

Cooke designed the Varotal/i full frame zooms to match well with their S7/i and S8/i full frame primes. All zooms in the Varotal/i series exhibit the traditional “Cooke Look” with pleasing warmth and excellent skin tone. Each lens in the set covers full frame and features Cooke’s /i data protocol for intelligent lens communication.

The vintage Leica R lenses have been rehoused by Zero Optik to improve housing mechanics and provide a robust design for cinema use. They still exhibit the same optical sharpness, pleasing bokeh, and smooth fall-off present in their non-rehoused cousins.

The Cooke FF Macros were designed to integrate seamlessly into the Cooke S7 & S8 sets. These macros are sharp and color matched to the rest of the S7/S8's and provide optimal performance for spherical full frame macro cinematography.

Cooke’s S8/i primes are faster, lighter, and smaller than previous full frame Cooke lenses. They exhibit Cooke’s pleasing warmth and creative Cooke Look. Each lens features uniform high quality Cooke design and utilizes Cooke’s i/Data for intelligent metadata capture.

*60, 90, and 150mm Macros can be added to the set by request. 

The 27-128mm Keslow Renaissance Zoom T3.6 is an enhanced 17-80mm Angenieux Optimo. Using the Optimo as a base lens, our Lens Team modified it to increase various characteristics sought after by cinematographers, such as increased edge falloff and slightly lowered contrast, with a beautiful painterly bokeh. The zoom has been expanded to cover modern, full-frame camera sensors.

The Genesis Vintage ‘66 Primes are a modern lens featuring state of the art German mechanical design with vintage aesthetics. They render pleasing skin tones, a sharp clean bokeh, and vintage inspired flares while still being optically sharp and flat. All the lenses are quite compact in size and feature a uniform design.

Manufactured as still lenses in the 1960’s and 70’s, TLS has rehoused these Kowa’s with new 16 blade irises and modern housings. The lenses are clean and perform well across the entire stop range without being overly sharp. Flares are full bodied and beautiful in nature and the lenses exhibit a smooth yet defined bokeh. The lenses perform well on all full frame cameras.

The Zero Optik Olympus Primes are a set of rehoused still photography lenses from the 1970’s. Unique among photo lenses for their combination of compact size, uniform T2.2 apertures, and consistent performance. They produce sharp images with warm smooth flares, without being too sterile.
