ZERØ OPTIK B&L Baltar 152mm f/2.7 (T2.8)

Summary

Bausch and Lomb’s original Baltar lenses were designed in the late 1930s and represent the first cohesive set of cinema primes to be manufactured in the United States. Nearly the entire range is based on the same optical design, making them much more consistent in performance when compared to their successors, the Super Baltars. The combination of field curvature, single-layer coatings, and primitive glass polishing techniques create images unlike anything modern glass is capable of without sacrificing clarity or resolution.
