LENSES HAVE BEEN SOLD.
Parting ways with my absolutely adored Illumina S16 lenses. I LOVE these lenses and how much character they have but sadly, I haven't been using them and would like them to find a good home.
These lenses cover S16 format, PL Mount. I've shot with them in 4k on the Red Helium, 2.5k / 3k on the Red Epic Dragon, and 4k on the Red Komodo (4k requires a little crop). The Komodo is particularly great combo because of the small footprint. I shot a short film and several commercials using these and they performed beautifully. These are Super 16 vintage lenses so expect to embrace the imperfections. I'm more than happy to send a long some screenshots or footage as requested.
I'm not a lens expert but these have been extremely well cared for under my ownership (I'm the second owner). The glass is clean, appears free of dust, fungus, oil, and abrasions. Some very light cosmetic marks around the usual spots.
8mm / 12mm - Focus and aperture rings turn smoothly.
16mm - Focus rings is a little stiffer but turns smoothly. Aperture ring feels a little loose but turns smoothly and has never affected performance.
Sale includes lenses, front and rear caps, and lens pouches.
Questions are strongly encouraged. Happy to talk extensively about these (or anything else your heart desires).
