Shipping Case

The GL Optics Rehoused Zeiss Contax set is a premier collection of 11 vintage prime lenses, transformed into professional cinema optics. This set utilizes the legendary “C/Y” mount glass—originally manufactured in the 1970s through a partnership between Zeiss and Yashica—providing a bridge between the sharp performance of modern sensors and the organic, soulful aesthetic of vintage cinema.

Key Features:

Cinematic “Super Speed” Heritage: These lenses share design DNA and coatings with the iconic Zeiss Super Speeds, offering beautiful flares and a gentle, natural roll-off.
Full Frame Coverage: All 11 lenses are designed to cover Full Frame (35mm) and VistaVision sensors (e.g., ARRI Alexa Mini LF, Sony Venice), making them future-proof for large-format cinematography.
Modern Cinema Housing: GL Optics replaces the original still-lens barrels with robust, 6063 aluminum cinema housings featuring a standardized 95mm front diameter and unified gear positions for follow-focus motors.
Extended Focus Throw: The focus rotation is significantly increased (up to 330°), allowing for precise pulls that are impossible on the original manual-focus stills versions.
T Multi-Coating:* Features the renowned Zeiss T* anti-reflective coating, which maintains contrast and color punch even when shooting directly into light sources.
Interchangeable Mounts: Typically available with a stainless steel PL mount, but can often be swapped for EF or LPL mounts to fit various camera systems.
