Experience the timeless character of German optics with the Meyer-Optik Görlitz
Oreston 50mm F1.8 Cine Mod Lens, professionally adapted for Canon EF mount and fully optimized for cinematography and professional video capturing. Known for its beautiful rendering, distinctive swirly bokeh, and smooth tonal transitions, the Oreston is one of the most beloved vintage portrait lenses, now upgraded for modern filmmaking.

Handcrafted in Görlitz, Germany, the Oreston 50mm F1.8 is a fast prime lens originally designed for still photography. In its cine-modified form, this lens offers the same unique optical signature, but with the usability filmmakers demand on set. Our workshop has carefully cleaned, re-lubricated, and adjusted the lens to ensure flawless operation, and upgraded it with essential cinema features:


• Dual 0.8 pitch follow focus gears (focus & aperture) for smooth, precise operation with professional follow focus systems.
• De-clicked aperture for seamless and silent exposure transitions.
• Custom Canon EF mount adaptation for reliable fit on DSLR and cinema cameras.
• Wide cine hood included for flare control and filter compatibility.
• Front & rear protective caps for safe storage and transport.

With its fast F1.8 maximum aperture, the Oreston excels in low light and creates stunning subject separation with creamy, swirly bokeh – perfect for portrait shots, cinematic close-ups, and artistic storytelling. Wide open, it delivers vintage softness and character, while stopping down reveals excellent sharpness and contrast.

This lens is not just for collectors – it is a workhorse for filmmakers, offering a mix of vintage aesthetic and modern usability. The mechanics have been fully serviced to ensure smooth focus travel and responsive aperture adjustments. The glass is clean, free from serious scratches, haze, or fungus. Minor cosmetic marks due to age may be visible on the glass, but they do not impact image quality.
