🚨 NEW GEAR ALERT 🚨
Looking to capture some Stanley Kubrick vibes?

This iconic vintage lens, one of Kubrick’s standbys, has been rehoused to perfection by Zero Optik. This 9.8mm is quite clean and produces a very wide image, with virtually zero focus breathing.
The #KinoptikTegea features:
- A new 12 blade iris design
- Robust modern housing with smooth focus and iris gears
- Amazing close focus of 7 inches.
This is without a doubt the best rehousing performed on the Kinoptik Tegea 9.8mm. For when you’re channeling “The Shining,” or “A Clockwork Orange,” there’s no better choice.
