CLeW aims to be a comprehensive and reliable online resource for professionals and enthusiasts in the motion picture industry. With the mainstream adoption of digital cinematography, the quantity and frequency of new and vintage cinema lenses has seen an unprecedented increase. As a result, it has become challenging for professionals and enthusiasts alike to keep up with the flood of new solutions and navigate the abundance of subjective content available.

Our mission is to provide factual and objective information on cinema lens manufacturers, their lens models, and the features and history of the motion picture lens industry. We want to create a digital database that mirrors the knowledge and expertise of the team at Duclos Lenses and fellow enthusiasts throughout the cinema lens community.

Stay Focused!
