The inception of Moviecam lenses dates back to the 1980s, using exceptionally high quality donated glass from the 1970s.
In the 1990s, when ARRI took over Moviecam, the main focus was on the advancement of camera technology.
However, the 2020s have seen a distinct shift in ARRI Rental's focus, with a particular emphasis on reviving and improving Moviecam lenses.
Recognizing the inherent appeal of these rare vintage optics, especially for digital filmmakers seeking a distinctive visual aesthetic, ARRI Rental embarked on a journey to preserve and elevate the legacy of Moviecam lenses.
Staying true to the original Moviecam design, ARRI Rental has meticulously incorporated the same premium glass from the '70s into robust lens housings equipped with contemporary features.
The result is a fusion of nostalgic charm and cutting-edge functionality, presenting these revitalized lenses as a compelling option for modern large format productions.
