Hanimar 55mm F1.7 Cine Mod Serviced Portrait Prime w/ Anamorphic Bokeh | Nikon Z

🎬 Hanimar 55mm F1.7 Cine Mod Serviced Portrait Prime Lens for Nikon Z with Neutral Oval Anamorphic-Style Bokeh

This TerPhoto cine-modified Hanimar 55mm F1.7 is a fast vintage portrait prime adapted and adjusted for Nikon Z-mount cameras. It is modified for cinematography, professional video production, music videos, interviews, narrative filmmaking, wedding films, fashion work, and stylized commercial content. The lens covers full frame sensors, making it a strong choice for Nikon Z full frame cameras as well as APS-C/S35 crop modes.

This version has been professionally serviced: fully cleaned, adjusted, aligned, re-lubricated, adapted, and tested for Nikon Z mount use. The aperture has been de-clicked for smooth exposure transitions during video recording, and a 0.8 pitch follow focus gear has been installed on the focusing ring for precise focus pulling with a follow focus system. The lens also includes an 80mm outside diameter cine lens hood, giving it a more production-ready cinema lens profile.

This lens has been modified with a neutral oval bokeh effect. It is still a spherical vintage lens, but the optical modification creates an anamorphic-inspired bokeh character without requiring any de-squeezing in post-production. For a cinematic widescreen look, simply add 1:2.35 aspect ratio black bars in editing. The result is a stylish vintage image with oval background highlights, soft portrait separation, classic flare behavior, and a more cinematic frame aesthetic.

The glass is overall in good vintage condition. It has been cleaned and aligned, with no fungus and no serious scratches. There is very minor wear on the glass, which is typical for vintage lenses of this age and will not affect the final image. The body shows normal signs of vintage use, including minor cosmetic wear, but this does not affect operation. Focus movement is smooth after service, and the de-clicked aperture works properly.

The Hanimar / Hanimex 55mm F1.7 belongs to the family of Japanese M42 standard primes from the late 1960s to early 1970s. These lenses were often sold under different distributor brands and are commonly compared with Chinon, Revuenon, and Tomioka-style 55mm F1.7 designs. Exact manufacturer attribution can vary between samples, but this optical type is appreciated by vintage lens users for its fast aperture, classic rendering, long manual focus feel, and character-rich image.
