Epic & old glass

[Brice Ansel]

Pierre Angenieux for Leica, early eighties.
Minimum focus distance 0,9 meter, it is actually a macro lense aswell.
Maximum aperture 3.5
I dind't have the time to test it properly, but I already know it is my new lens for interviews and portrait.
The color rendition is sooo natural, me think it's a good one for color skin.

They are similar to K35's but have fewer iris blades. We use an FD mount from a manufacture in poland which is good. I believe Optitek make one too. There are a couple of workshops that remount FD lenses to EF with out any additional optics, its just a replacement mount, The remount looks good. I am not so sure that EF mounts are better than FT, its not as strong but then EF might be more convenient for some.

Have just been talking about this on the Red One forum.
There is a FD mount for the red one on e-bay but it doesn't focus to infinity. I'm guessing the FFD is out?

Is there a FD mount out there for the Red One that works properly does anyone know?
I'm a fan of FD lenses and this is becoming a big black mark against the Red One for me at the moment!

Any info welcomed!

Anyone out there with Moviecam Primes? I still love the flavor they add to footage. My favorite Prime Lens out there!

Basically the glass used to shoot Aliens.

These are T2 K35's right? Used on Aliens 2? I'm guessing they look like K35's right?
