Bausch & Lomb Super Baltar TLS Primes
Legendary glass famously used by Gordon Willis on “The Godfather,” originally built during the 1950s and rehoused by True Lens Services for mechanical precision without sacrificing optical quality.
- The TLS rehousing provides modern cam drive focus systems with consistent gear positions and excellent close focus performance.
- All lenses feature a unified 110mm front diameter for seamless workflow integration.
- Vintage Aesthetic: They produce a “creamy” look with warm color rendition and low to medium contrast that “takes the edge off” modern digital sensors.
- Unique Flares: Known for their iconic blue, purple, and amber flares caused by their original coatings.
- Bokeh and Texture: They feature textured bokeh and softer edges compared to modern, highly corrected glass.
