lenses in Eyemo mount

TheFlyingCamera · Oct 14, 2024

Having acquired my 35mm Eyemo, I'd like to be able to shoot with it, but it is lacking a lens. Does anyone have any recommendations for a (reasonably priced) standard lens (40-50mm range) that would fit, and perhaps more importantly, a source for one? (maybe someone has one they'd want to sell????? maybe? hint hint?). What I see on Ebay mostly are long telephotos that don't do me much good, or crazy expensive lenses like Cooke Speed Panchros for $5K. Given that I'm not working on a Hollywood budget for a major motion picture, that's out of the question.

Native Eyemo lenses are both rare and stupidly expensive. Again, trying to find an adapter for Nikon or some other 35mm SLR lenses would be much more practical.

See that you can fetch a two-inch anastigmat, f/3.5. These are fixed focus triplets made by Wollensak, often available for little money on ebay or the like. I can clean one for you. Small, lightweight, they do what you need. Which 71 model dou you have?

A Wollensak lens for a 35mm cine camera? I'm curious if you have resources or examples I could see. I only know the 16mm ones they made and some 35mm still photography lenses that have integrated shutter.
