Here's the Fuji EBC 50mm rehoused by TLS on the Eterna 55. This lens produces very over-corrected bokeh to the edges, only getting more crazy as you hit the very edge of that image circle. There's also quite a lot of bokeh deformation, as I call it. Which is when the bokeh starts to pinch in the corners and deform. This does cover the GFX sensor somewhat okay, but there is some pretty gnarly vignetting on the very, very edges. I'm very confident to say that this covers a VistaVision 40, essentially a red V-Raptor and comfortably covers the large GFX 55 sensor in 16:9. #Fujifilm #vintagelenses #cinematography #filmmaking #videography 11 Nov 2026

NEW @ancientoptics Pen F focal lengths! Gorgeous vintage glass. Unbelievable close focus. See them for the first time at our @camerimage.festival Lens Bar. Reach out if you’re at CAMERIMAGE! #penf #ancientoptics #rehousedlenses #vintagelenses #camerimage 10 Nov 2026

Finally back in Toruń for Camerimage… and we can’t wait to show you how much the line-up has grown. If Tamashii, Statera and Series 65 are already on your gear list (or at least your wish list), we bet the new projects we brought this year will win you over too. @ancientalliance private demos are by appointment only, so drop us a DM and we’ll see if a slot is still free. Be quick… they’re going fast. 10 Nov 2026

See the full set of @ancientoptics H1 primes for the first time at @camerimage.festival Fast. Lightweight. Gorgeous character. #ancientoptics #h1primes #vintagelenses #fullframe #camerimage 10 Nov 2026

New Lenses... New Look… And it’s like nothing else. If you’re at the @camerimage.festival let us know. @ancientoptics @ancientalliance @old_fast_glass @truelensservices #ancientoptics #camerimage #cinematography #vintagelenses #truelensservices 09 Nov 2026

Full frame DOF and FOV on 16mm sounds like a long shot. Nobody thought anyone would build it, but we did it anyway and named it appropriately. Can´t get the shot you envisioned? We would sooner invent the right tool for the job than turn you down. Now our cinematographers enjoy a virtually endless library of lenses on the stunning texture of the 16mm format. 03 Nov 2026

Tamashii 140mmが到着し、全12本のラインナップが揃いました！ 1本1本が個性豊かでありながら統一性のある、最高の顔ぶれです。開放からしっかりとしたシャープさを持ちながら、なめらかな中にも質感を残すボケと、色彩豊かなフレアが魅力。被写体の存在感を引き立てながら、背景や光にも豊かな表情を与えてくれます。最近ではコマーシャルやミュージックビデオなどでもご活用いただいており、表現の幅広さに私たちも驚かされています。何度でもお伝えしたいのですが、アジアでレンタルできるのはカプセルだけ！ぜひ一度、その描写を体感してみてください。 The Tamashii 140mm has arrived, completing our full lineup of 12 lenses! An exceptional set, with each lens bringing its own distinct character while maintaining a cohesive look across the range. Sharp even wide open, with smooth yet textured bokeh and beautifully coloured flares, Tamashii gives subjects a strong presence while bringing character to backgrounds and light. We’ve recently had them used on commercials and music videos, and their versatility continues to surprise us. And it bears repeating: Capsule is the only place in Asia where you can rent them! Try them for yourself and experience their unique look. #tamashii #vintagelens #cinemalens #tokyo #機材神 27 Oct 2026

NOW PLAYING 🎬 All episodes of @terminallistpv Season 2 are now streaming on @PrimeVideo, and we sat down with DP Checco Varese, ASC, AMPAS (@checcovarese) and director Paul Cameron, ASC, DGA, AMPAS (@paulcameron_director) to break down the craft behind the first two episodes. Based on the book TRUE BELIEVER, Season 2 takes James Reece across the globe as he uncovers a high-stakes conspiracy spanning from Moscow to Langley. To capture this relentless journey, Checco and Paul shot across five different countries with international camera support from our team at Keslow Camera. In our exclusive video interview, they dive deep into their optical choices - including selecting the stunning TAMASHII lenses from @ancientoptics - and share behind-the-scenes insights into executing complex, adrenaline-fueled action on a worldwide scale.

A massive congratulations to Fraser Brown, CSC (@fraserbrown) on taking home the @canadiancinematographer Award for Half Hour Scripted Series Cinematography for Peacock's "Twisted Metal" Season Two ( Season Finale - "NUY3ARZ")! In honor of the big win, we’re looking back at our sit-down covering his visuals across episodes 3, 4, 7, 8, 11, and 12. Fraser walked us through the creative choices powering the wild apocalyptic comedy—breaking down custom POV setups, historical period flashbacks, vintage horror visual tones, partnering alongside initial block cinematographer Spencer Combs, and balancing heavy practical stunt work with digital magic. "[For the prologue flashback that opens the finale,] we pitched hard to make it black and white. [For the sequence,] we got the @AncientOptics Petzvalux Primes... We tested them. They were awesome, especially in the forest. All the trees are curving. And we pushed it hard. We really wanted it to feel different than the rest of the show. As far as working with Keslow, it was great. We had a great experience. We got all the tools we needed... Everyone was very on board to create the type of show that we were doing." - DP Fraser Brown, CSC Link in bio to read the full conversation!

Loving this 28mm Fuji EBC from @truelensservices . Every single focal length has such unique characteristics. It's hard to figure out what focal length is my favourite. We cannot wait to show them all off. Currently the 19mm, 24mm, and 28mm exterior scenes are live on CineTraits and the 28mm is free to view this month. These have all been shot in full open gate 4x3 on the GFX sensor. Held on with @c7adapters PL to LPL incerts, and LPL to GFX. #Fujifilm #cinematography #videography #vintagelenses #filmmaking 14 Oct 2026

On Friday, October 16, and Saturday, October 17, we’ll be at Cinecittà @cineverse_expo to strengthen our collaboration with @ancientoptics and showcase three lens sets that are set to make a lasting impact on the world of cinematography in the years to come: STATERA Anamorphic, SERIES 65, and TAMASHII. Come visit us and get hands-on with the lenses and claim your Ancient Optics X Cineverse shirt! . . #dvisionmoviepeople #ancientoptics 12 Oct 2026
