Posted - Apr 24 2016 : 07:40:34 AM Hi! I was wondering what were the cameras used before the start of Konvas production (1965)? I have here a cine lens made by GOMZ in 1960 (but produced since 50's). That's why I came to this question.
Here is the lens btw, adapted to photography :
And sample with this lens on A7 :

Great portait btw!
