Matthew Pothier Posted June 10, 2022 Posted June 10, 2022 Anyone have any info on this lens? any examples of something shot with it? Are there any available for rent in LA or NYC? Thanks!
Hale Mednick Posted October 17, 2023 Posted October 17, 2023 I have one. One of the best lenses ever made. Apocalypse Now was the first movie to use this lens. Any movie shot by Vittorio Storaro probably used it.
Matthew Pothier Posted October 17, 2023 Author Posted October 17, 2023 (edited) I ended up getting one and having it rebuilt by duclos! It’s seriously amazing. It’s like having a full set of speed panchros Edited October 17, 2023 by Matthew Pothier
Hale Mednick Posted October 18, 2023 Posted October 18, 2023 Nice. Yes, it is a very special lens...I have done some research into it. These zooms were entirely handbuilt by Technovision using parts from a 20-100. It's sometimes a bit weird, crazy flares and all that, but it makes really pretty, organic images. Mine vignettes heavily until about 25 mm. Are you able to shoot at 18mm with it? Is Duclos able to help with that?
Matthew Pothier Posted October 20, 2023 Author Posted October 20, 2023 yeah its definitely a funky character filled lens which is really hard to find in a zoom. But also creates really pretty sharp images. I use it mostly on my alexa 35 in 4k mode and it works well coverage wise
