You can find these in industrial auction lots. If you look hard. They were used back in the day as bank security cameras and other such things. Very nice rendition of a classic cam! Rene

This may be true for the Pan Cinor c-mount zoom lenses but not for the Cinor B primes. The ones the original poster referenced on eBay are the "Cinor B" series primes. Stopped down two stops, they are incredibly sharp with very good contrast. I have shot lots of footage with the Cinor B primes. Only thing better is the Kinoptik Apochromats but they will cost as much as a good used car. The Cinor B's even beat the Switars in my honest opinion. Nice lenses for sure. Rene

Assuming I have good glass, will I see a difference when finishing for a 2K digital projection, for an art house theater run on smaller sized screens? Thoughts? Thanks. Rene

Mr. Bernie O'Doherty will be cheaper and better. In all honesty. And he might actually convert it to Ultra 16 for under that price. But don't quote me on that. Rene
