Orion Silver Edition 6-Lens Set
Express Your Vision For the Silver Screen: Introducing the Orion Series Silver Edition
The Silver Edition lenses maintain the modern, mechanically reliable performance that sets the Orion Series apart from vintage anamorphic lenses, all while celebrating aspects of the silver screen cinema era.
Precision-adjusted air space tunings paired with bold Silver Edition coatings result in expressive, reactive, yet chromatically refined anamorphic flares unlike any lens before.
