follow focus gears added. Unified front via adapter rings for matte box /

———
GLASS CONDITION
All glass inspected. No fungus, no element separation, coatings intact across the
set. Some normal internal dust consistent with the age of the optics — does not
affect imaging, standard for vintage glass of this vintage. Multiple close-up
photos of each element available on request.
MECHANICAL
Smooth focus throw (~270°+). Iris operates cleanly across all lenses. Follow focus
gears properly seated and gripping. PL mounts engage and lock correctly.

PROVENANCE
Purchased in 2015 from UK director Nick Bartleet (Pixelloft Ltd, Worcestershire UK)
— credits include Visa Winter Olympics, OPPO x Marvel, Adidas, Xiaomi, Naughty Boy.
Originally used on his commercial productions. Photos from the 2015 sale available
on request to verify chain of custody.
USAGE & STORAGE
Effectively dormant since acquisition in 2015. The set was used only for a few
test rolls and limited personal exploration — never on a professional production
under my ownership. Stored in the original Peli case throughout, indoors, in a
stable climate in southern France (Nice). No drops, no impacts, no repairs
needed during 10 years of stewardship.
This is effectively a "preserved" 2015-era set: the glass and mechanics are in
the same state Nick Bartleet sold them to me, minus 10 years of professional
production wear that the set would have accumulated had it remained in active
use.

WHY THIS SET
LOMO Standard Speeds remain prized by indie cinematographers and commercial DPs for
their distinctive character: organic falloff, painterly bokeh, low-contrast skin
tones, and gentle flare behavior that pairs beautifully with modern digital sensors
(ARRI Alexa, RED, Sony Venice, FX-series, BMPCC). The 22-50-75 trio in particular
is widely considered the LOMO sweet-spot signature.
This set's specific advantage over comparable listings: the 28mm OKC7-28-1 fills a
focal length gap typical sets miss, and is a workhorse focal in actual production
use.
