The Pancolar name was used for Zeiss Jena’s post-1960 double-Gauss \/ Planar-type standard lenses, with the faster 50mm F1.8 version becoming a major Carl Zeiss Jena standard lens from the mid-1960s onward. The Zebra design represents the iconic 1960s production era, valued today by filmmakers for its mechanical feel, close focusing, and recognizable vintage rendering.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThis cine modification is based on the original Carl Zeiss Jena Pancolar 50mm F1.8 Zebra lens.
