Founded in 1932 by Messieurs Grosset and Perthuis in Paris, Kinoptik has produced some of the most advanced optical systems used in the civilian, military, and research communities. Kinopitk concentrated its efforts on the cinema business in 1944 by building lenses and viewfinders for 35mm cine cameras, and these cine lenses are still known in the film industry for their robust nature and the high quality of their optics.
Kinoptik lenses are sharp, have subtle fall off, beautiful bokehs and provide vivid images. The color temperature is warm, creating nice skin tones. These lenses were originally manufactured in the mid-20th century and are rarely found today.
