Our Canon Rangefinders rehoused by @truelensservices 🤯 Centered around the legendary Canon 50mm f0.95 “Dream Lens”, this is one of the most unique and beautiful vintage lens sets available today. Beautiful organic falloff, textured bokeh, warm amber flares and soft cinematic rendering give these lenses an unmistakable character that modern productions continue to chase. Thanks to modern digital cinema cameras, LPL mounts and TLS’ incredible rehousing work, these iconic 1960s optics can now be used seamlessly within modern cinema workflows without sacrificing the original optical designs that make them so special. If you haven’t seen what these amazing lenses can produce, you are missing out! 🎥 #CameraDepartment #DOP #CanonRangefinder #TrueLensServices #VintageGlass CinemaLenses Cinematography Filmmaking WidescreenHire

Our @7isatribe Blackwing7 range, with a closer look at the T-Tuned (Transient) set. Softer contrast, gentle halation, and flares that actually respond to the light in the scene. It takes the edge off modern sensors without losing structure giving you an image that feels shaped, not softened. Compared to the X-Tuned, which pushes bloom and flare much further, the T-Tuned holds its form. You still get that glow and reactivity, just with more control and consistency shot to shot. It’s why T-Tuned has become the go-to across full projects sitting right in that balance between clean and expressive. Easily the most requested tuning in the set at the moment. Character where you want it, without taking over. Book your shoot or test via DM or email [email protected] #Tribe7Blackwing #Blackwing7 #CameraDepartment

The @dzofilm Xtract Zoom Probe👀 We’re buzzing to get this out on set. Shooting at T8, covering full frame with an 18–28mm zoom range, it’s a seriously versatile bit of kit. It’s rare to get a true wide 18mm on full frame while still achieving detailed macro, all with a working distance of just 6mm, letting you stay close while still seeing the environment. Our package includes the full set of probe heads: 0° straight probe, 90° periscope, and 360° periscope. From macro dolly zooms to barrel rolls and built-in tilt rolls, the creative options are wide open.🎥 Looking forward to seeing this on Irish and international productions. Get in touch to lock in your rental today via DM Or Email [email protected] where one of our experienced rental technicians can assist you with your order. #DzoXtract #ProbeLens #Cameradepartment #Dzo

Our @atlaslensco Mercury FF anamorphic 1.5x squeeze There’s something distinctive about how anamorphic glass renders an image, and the Mercury series strikes a really considered balance. Character when you need it, restraint when you don’t. Gentle falloff, controlled flares, and just enough personality to elevate a frame without taking it over. Now available : 24mm 27mm 32mm 36mm 42mm 54mm 72mm 95mm 138mm Explore the full inventory at WIDESCREENHIRE.COM. Here at Widescreen, we are always at hand to offer advice to help bring more ambitious setups and ideas to life backed by proper, hands on support and kit knowledge for whatever your shot & desired look is. #CameraDepartment #Anamorphic #AtlasMercury
