James Coleman Rogers Posted July 8, 2023 Share Posted July 8, 2023 Hi everyone. Selling off a bunch of rarities from my collection. Here's a list, DM for pics and further info. -Lomo 65/70mm film format primes: 70OKC4-40-1 (40mm f3); OKC2-100-1 (100mm f2.8) ($5.5k takes both) glass in good shape overall, some cleaning marks but nothing of concern. -1959 NAC Anamorphic Primes (early Japanese anamorphic primes, predate Kowas! These use Canon rangefinder base glass, and a very advanced anamorphot design that has a 6 element block with a front quadruplet (4 element group - i would assume for high level of color and aberration correction). They are also astonishingly small/compact. These lenses need restoration to get back to working; Optitek has quoted ~$6k per lens to restore (polish and recoat), convert to PL mount, add gears, etc. 50mm f1.8 and 85mm f1.9; selling at $4k each. Currently Eyemo mount. -Canon Super16 10.6-180mm T2.7: needs nothing, top notch condition. the last generation, newest Super16 zoom...incredibly performance with a HUGE zoom range in a ridiculously tiny package. -CineMobile 40mm T1.1 BNCR mount - Very rare, interesting glass from ~1980s. Needs front element polish and recoat...rest of glass in excellent shape. Very unique lens that would make a cool addition to a K35 or zeiss superspeed set. Covers 16:9 FF with mild vignette. $3.5k...polish and recoat can be done for like $1500 iirc. PL mount conversion should be simple. Located East coast USA (virginia); can ship worldwide at buyer expense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Coleman Rogers Posted July 31, 2023 Author Share Posted July 31, 2023 NAC Anamorphic primes sold, Canon S16 zoom sold. CineMobile 40mm T1.1 and Lomo 65/70 format 40mm and 100mm all still available. Also now available: Zeiss S16 Superspeed 16mm T1.3 (Arri B-mount with PL adapter). Glass in excellent shape, focus and iris turn without issue. $1100 Also have a VERY rare set of vintage Chinese "Great Wall" cinema primes, from the late 1970s. Produced by state-run Communist China factory , "Factory 608". They are excellent little lenses, matching glass and coatings; coatings are quite good, beautiful color flaring and consistency. They are all entirely unique designs, NOT copies of Cooke/Zeiss/etc. Almost entirely unknown in the western world, a true undiscovered/forgotten vintage cine lens set...very few sets produced, very high quality as they were intended to compete with the best the Western World could offer at the time (Speed Panchros, Zeiss Standard Speeds). Set comprises 20/28/35/40/50/85mm. All Arriflex mount except for the 50mm, all with simple PL adapters. Usable as is for a super compact gimbal or drone lens (though youll of course want to add focus gears)...or get GL Optics to rehouse them. Also have an 18mm F2.0 (arriflex with PL adapter) that is from the same era (late 1970s) but was actually made by a different factory which had their own unqiue designs. This one has beautiful golden amber coatings very much like Kowa Cine Prominar sphericals. Could be used to supplement the Beijing 608 set, or perhaps even Kowas! $14k for the Beijing 608 set; $2,600 for the 18mm. Finally...I also have a 20mm Kowa Cine Prominar T2.6 with glass in VERY nice condition. PL mount. Reluctant to sell but would let go for right price, so if anyone has a set missing a 20mm (or you know someone), hit me up ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jonathan Tinsley Posted August 8, 2023 Share Posted August 8, 2023 James, It is indeed hard to find info about those Factory #608's. Are they for super16? What is their sensor coverage? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is their sensor coverage? They cover 35mm (S35) - the wides might be a little tight, but overall coverage is excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they for super16? What is their sensor coverage? They're pretty much entirely unknown outsode of China, and even pretty forgotten within China itself thanks to efforts of the government to "forget" things from that era. They were built with assistance from Zeiss Jena engineers allegedly. They were designed for S35...the 85mm completely covers FF/Vistavision. Excellent coatings that match quite well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Coleman Rogers Posted August 9, 2023 Author Share Posted August 9, 2023 CineMobile 40mm sold. Price drop on the Lomo 65/70 format 40mm and 100mm - $5000 total takes them both. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Coleman Rogers Posted March 11 Author Share Posted March 11 (edited) UPDATES: -NAC ANAMORPHICS SOLD (still have a 100mm f3.5 spherical back section, and also a front anamorphic block available - ana block needs refurbish.) -Canon Super16 Zoom SOLD. -Chinese Beijing 608 set SOLD. STILL HAVE CHINESE ChangChun 18mm and 28mm (28 covers FF 16:9!!!) arriflex mount STILL HAVE THE RARE LOMO 65/70 format primes; 70OKC4-40-1 and OKC2-100-1. (40mm and 100mm...for 65mm film! will sell for $2k each.) Also have 3 VERY rare TODD AO 70 primes, for 65/70mm film format!!! A 60mm T2.2, 75mm T2.8, and 100mm T3.5! 60mm and 75mm are from the original ToddAO set designed by Dr. Brian O'Brien! The 100mm came from a later set around maybe a decade or two later (but coatings are similar). These would have been used on any number of classic Todd AO 70mm Productions over the years...The Sound of Music, Around The World In 80 Days, The Bible, etc... Asking $4k each for the ToddAO70 glass. They would need to be rehoused...TLS has already rehoused the 60mm once or twice before, and have said they would do the 75mm and 100mm as well.
