Rare opportunity here friends, I am currently selling my Todd-AO 35 2x Anamorphic 40-240mm f/4.2 Varifocal Cinema Zoom lens with its original casing. This once in a blue moon piece of glass from the 1970s is used with signs of ware external ware, though in perfect working condition with no loss of optical quality. It is made with a BNCR mount, which may be converted to match any other full frame lens mount which supports BNCR flange depth (IE a PL mount for example). This is a vintage anamorphic cinema zoom lens from the 1970s which comes with its original casing. Todd-AO’s are known for their incomparable violet anamorphic flares matched with a sharp yet distinct image. If this is a lens you can’t let slip by, click the link to my eBay page at the top of the forum. If an eBay account isn’t your thing, feel free to send me a direct message. Other than eBay, I will only accept PayPal. Item will ship once payment has gone through, and I will handle the shipping costs. All sales are final.Feel free to reach out with any further questions!C8F69592-AA2C-40E9-85DD-E9F900F0F8AF.jpeg.6def71283ebef61d35f009572eef7c59.jpeg19C900DF-D1B9-42DD-AB39-F9A9213586CB.jpeg.cc0f68e01df7f88fecba115cfc4cd6e0.jpegC7CB294A-E74C-4A83-83CE-144BAA73ABA5.jpeg.ea4346c6b69cd733e6aee04febd3bdb4.jpegF0B4A7E0-7A72-4592-B1EA-3DAD9D56191E.jpeg.0e7ba22491a44f6b0540ff93b33f626b.jpeg

Since this is essentially an Angenieux 20-120 with an anamorphic rear adapter, I doubt it would have the same sort of flares that the Todd-AO primes would have, but I’m happy to stand corrected. Do you have any footage from this lens?
