$ 299.99
🎬 CARL ZEISS JENA MC PRAKTICAR (PANCOLAR) 50MM F1.8 CINE MOD LENS | SONY
E-MOUNT (FULL FRAME)

Bring true Zeiss Jena character to your video work with this Carl Zeiss Jena MC Prakticar (Pancolar) 50mm F1.8, professionally prepared for cinematography and professional video capturing. This is a cine-modded vintage prime with a classic rendering style – clean subject separation, organic contrast, and a natural, filmic feel that modern clinical lenses often lack.

This lens is converted for Sony E-mount and covers full-frame sensors, making it an excellent match for Sony FX / Alpha full-frame bodies as well as Super35/APS-C cameras where you’ll enjoy a slightly tighter “portrait prime” field of view. The cine mod setup includes two 0.8 pitch follow focus gears for precise focusing and aperture control, ideal for use with follow-focus systems, wireless focus motors, rigs, cages, matte boxes, and studio setups.

A big highlight of this build is the included 80mm OD cine lens hood (with 77mm filter thread), giving you a more cinema-friendly front end for quick accessory mounting and a more consistent on-rig workflow. If you’re building a set of character primes or want a single vintage hero lens for interviews, narrative, music videos, and commercial work – this one delivers a beautiful vintage look with modern handling.

Glass Condition: The glass is free of serious scratches, fog, and fungus. Due to age, it may show minor marks (light cleaning marks, small stains, cosmetic wear), but nothing that will affect the final image in real shooting conditions.

Body Condition: Normal external wear marks consistent with age. All wear is cosmetic and does not affect operation.
