Pentacon 200mm F4 Rare Cine Mod Prime Telephoto Lens | Arri PL!

🎬 Rare Pentacon 200mm F4 Cine Mod Prime Lens for ARRI PL | Full Frame Coverage

A professionally modified Pentacon 200mm F4 vintage telephoto prime lens prepared specifically for modern cinematography. This lens has been completely serviced, cleaned, adjusted, re-lubricated, professionally adapted to ARRI PL mount, and calibrated for reliable operation on professional cinema cameras.

Originally manufactured in East Germany (GDR) by Pentacon during the late 1960s through the 1980s, this classic telephoto lens became well known for its excellent sharpness, pleasing color rendition, and smooth out-of-focus rendering. Built upon the respected Meyer-Optik/Pentacon optical heritage, the 200mm F4 remains one of the most sought-after vintage telephoto lenses for filmmakers looking for organic character without sacrificing image quality.

Unlike many vintage telephoto lenses, this lens covers full-frame sensors, making it an excellent choice for modern cinema cameras such as ARRI Alexa Mini LF, RED V-Raptor, Sony Venice, Blackmagic URSA Cine, Canon C400, and many other PL mount systems.

This example has been professionally converted into a practical cinema lens featuring:

• Professionally installed ARRI PL mount
• De-clicked aperture for smooth exposure transitions
• Dual 0.8 MOD follow focus gears for focus and aperture
• Fully cleaned optical system
• Re-lubricated focusing helicoid
• Precision-adjusted mechanics
• Ready for professional production work

The optics are in good condition. There is very minor cleaning wear on the glass, which is common for vintage optics and has no visible influence on image quality or recorded footage.

The body shows normal cosmetic signs of careful use consistent with its age while remaining mechanically excellent.
