Kowa Vintage Full Frame

These vintage Kowa’s are full frame lenses from the 60’s and 70’s lovingly restored by Ancient Optics and rehoused by the masters at TLS. 

Long lost cousins to the legendary Kowa Cine Prominars, this Kowa FF glass also has a lovely gold and purple flare. They are all sharp in the center with a gentle focus fall off to the corners. Bokeh is soft, pleasant, and circular at all stops thanks to the 14 blade iris. The brilliant engineers at TLS also improved the minimum close focus distance on every focal length. Each lens from 19mm to 135mm safely covers Arri Alexa LF open gate sensors without vignette. The lenses have rock solid TLS cam systems, 110mm fronts, 300 degree focus rotation, and standard 0.8 focus and iris gears.
