C Series

PanavisionLenses

Since 1968, Panavision C Series anamorphic primes have been the go-to choice for filmmakers looking for a compact, lightweight anamorphic lens. Characterized by a graduated depth of field, predictable full-field performance at all apertures, a pronounced anamorphic flare, and a flattering bokeh, these lenses impart an organic feel that many cinematographers prefer over the often sterile look of many modern-day optics.

C Series technology has served as a foundation for later generations of Panavision optics, and in turn has benefited from the retrofitting of significant design enhancements. 

 

C Series lenses can intercut with other Panavision anamorphics such as E Series, Primo Anamorphic, and G Series lenses. 

 

With their compact size and light weight, C Series lenses are well-suited to handheld, Steadicam, and other applications.
