Pentacon Auto 50mm F1.8 Cine Mod German Prime Portrait Lens | Sony E-mount!

🎬 Pentacon Auto 50mm F1.8 Cine Mod German Prime Portrait Lens for Sony E-Mount

Bring true vintage character to your video work with this Pentacon Auto 50mm F1.8 Cine Mod, a classic German prime lens professionally adapted for cinematography and professional video capturing work. This lens is an excellent choice for filmmakers who want a natural portrait focal length, fast aperture, and the distinctive rendering that vintage optics are known for. The 50mm focal length makes it highly versatile for portraits, interviews, detail shots, and narrative scenes, while the bright F1.8 aperture helps create strong subject separation and smooth background blur.

This copy has been modified with 2 follow focus gears, giving you precise and repeatable control over both focus and aperture during production. That makes it much more practical for rigs, follow focus systems, matte box setups, and controlled manual shooting than a standard stills configuration. The lens is also adapted to Sony E-mount, making it ready to use with many Sony mirrorless cameras and cinema-oriented hybrid setups. An 80mm OD cine lens hood with 77mm filter thread is included, adding a more production-friendly front profile for accessories and light control.

The glass is in pretty good condition, without fungus, fog, or serious scratches. Like many vintage lenses, it may show minor signs of age-related wear on the glass, but this will not affect the final image. The body has normal wear marks for its age, also without impact on functionality. A very important advantage of this lens is that it covers full frame sensors, making it suitable for a wide range of modern Sony cameras while preserving the classic Pentacon look.
