WTB - Angenieux DP "Rouge" 30-80 zoom ...and a 45-120 as well.

Title says it. Looking for an Angenieux DP 30-80, imperial markings.

PM me or email to info at rojomojo dot net


Also looking for an Optimo 45-120

Would have thought that the Angie 16-42 DP would be the logical partner for the 45-120 Optimo (with a doubler on hand) for perhaps the most amazing 2 lens kit ever. Perhaps you already have the 16-42...

Yes, Blair, I already do have the 16-42. I have the 30-80 on order, been on order forever, but have no clue as to when I will ever get it and I'm sick of renting.

The 45-120 would make an amazing companion 16-42 for a 2-lens kit, but it seems they're nearly impossible to come by right now. The 30-80 still holds a lot of value though. In many ways it's avery serviceable zoom range and I think that the 16-42 plus the 45-120 would leave me changing lenses a lot. At least for the types of shooting I do, I spend a lot of time in the 30-80 range.

Point taken Jeff. That 30-80mm range gets a serious workout on a wide range of shows and the Angie DP is so pure it really is a valid substitute for primes, at least in my book. I'm always enamored of the dimensionality both of the little DP zooms exhibit, my favorite short zooms - sorry RED 18-50, you're a great little lens but the Angie's are so much more refined.
