Angenieux 25-250 HP - T3.7 Zoom Lens

This 10x Angenieux HP 25-250mm T3.7 Zoom Lens offers a close focus of 6' and a PL mount. The markings on this lens barrel are easy to see. The barrels include a knurled finger-hold to maintain your grip. The front diameter is 124mm. This lens weighs approximately 9.92 lb (4.5 kg).

This lens utilized a new glass type when it emerged on the market. It also features an anti-reflective coating to reduce flare.

This 10x zoom lens inspired four generations of Optimo lenses so far. This 25-250mm lens is the signature focal range which serviced the film industry for over 50 years. Jon Fauer's Film & Digital Times created an extensive PDF of the history of Angenieux in which this lens is featured, in case you want to read more about it. Per that article, Ron Dexter, ASC used the Angenieux 25-250mm zoom lens to capture the footage in his award-winning commercials.

Zoom lenses from Angenieux featured prominently in the camera packages on each space shuttle, including Enterprise, Columbia, Challenger, and Discovery. 

NOTE: This lens does not include an infinity stop, unlike most Angenieux lenses. You will be unable to perform a blind focus pull to infinity for that reason.

Remarks:
1) Minimum marked distance, measured from the image plane
