Description
The ZEISS Super Speed Prime Lenses are a set of 6 high-performance, compact spherical lenses with focal lengths of 18mm, 20mm, 25mm, 35mm, 50mm, and 85mm. They feature a T1.3 aperture, 80mm front diameter, and a PL mount. These lenses were first manufactured in West Germany and became popular in the 1970s and 80s due to their compact size and fast apertures. Their classic optical qualities and subtle vintage characteristics make them a great match for today’s sensors and remain a favorite lens for many filmmakers. These lenses are known for beautiful blue and magenta lens flares, high contrast, and minimal focus breathing. The Super Speeds are widely considered some of the most capable and beautiful vintage lenses available. They are popular in the industry due to their reasonable price and high T-stop of T1.3. You might recognize the Super Speeds from films such as The Shining and Straight Outta Compton. These lenses are available to rent or sub-rent from Cine Visuals in full sets, partial sets, or as single lenses.
