product details

MasterBuilt Portrait Primes are specialty lenses optimized for human subjects in expressive close-ups. With flattering skin reproduction and creamy separation, they are designed for character-driven storytelling, commercials, and fashion. Cinematographers depend on them when the emotional resonance of a shot requires intimacy, subtlety, and natural beauty rather than analytical sharpness. With vintage flavor, they echo classic cinema lenses like K35s and SuperSpeeds, but with modern opto-mechanics and professional housings. Three focal lengths make up the set: 32mm, 55mm, and 100mm. Available for rental or subrental at Cine Visuals.

Image Performance

Handling & Adaptability

The inclusion of a single aspheric optical element makes it visually compatible with both the multi-aspheric Leica Summilux-C and the spherical Leica Summicron-C primes. With nine lenses in six groups and apochromatic correction, outstanding resolution and contrast can be achieved all the way to the edge of the frame.
