TLS REHOUSED CANON K35 SET OF 5: 18,24,35,55,85mm

The TLS Rehoused Canon K35 set of 5 (18mm, 24mm, 35mm, 55mm, and 85mm) represents the ultimate marriage of 1970s Academy Award-winning optics and world-class modern mechanics. Originally designed as Canon’s answer to the Zeiss Super Speeds, these legendary lenses are celebrated for their “creamy” low-contrast aesthetic, warm color palette, and unique “bulls-eye” bokeh. The expert rehousing by True Lens Services (TLS) transforms these vintage elements into robust cinema tools, featuring a cam-driven focus system with 300 degrees of rotation and zero backlash. Because most focal lengths in this set provide full-frame coverage, they have become a staple for high-end productions seeking an organic, textured look on modern large-format sensors like the ARRI Alexa LF or Sony VENICE.

Key Features:
Vintage Academy Award-Winning Glass: Features the original aspherical optical designs from the 1970s for a soft, painterly cinematic character.
Full-Frame Coverage: The 24mm, 35mm, 55mm, and 85mm lenses comfortably cover full-frame and VistaVision sensors.
Modern TLS Cam-Driven Housing: Provides a non-linear focus scale with 300° of rotation and a chassis that supports heavy matte boxes without affecting movement.
Ultra-Fast T-Stops: High-speed apertures ranging from T1.3 to T1.5 deliver exceptional low-light performance and shallow depth of field.
15-Blade Circular Iris: Ensures the bokeh remains perfectly circular and pleasing even when the lenses are stopped down.
Standardized 110mm Front Diameters: Matching front diameters and unified gear positions across the set allow for rapid lens swaps on set.
Exceptional Close Focus: TLS engineering significantly improves the minimum object distance compared to the original vintage housings.
