Cinema Equipment: Angenieux 7-81 HR
Zoom Angénieux 7-81mm HR T/2.4
Super 16mm
From “The Cine Lens Manual”
by J. Holben and C. Probst:
”…With the gradual move to adopting the wider-gauge Super 16 format into productions throughout the 1980s and into the 2000s, Angénieux released only three lenses specifically designed for the larger imager area. The 7-81mm T2.4 HR is the latest, made in 1994.”

“When Century Precision, then the exclusive dealer for Angenieux film lenses in the U.S., introduced these lenses in 1993, they were priced at $16,950.00. In 1999, Angenieux discontinued the 11.5-138 HR, in favor of their new 7-81mm HR Super 16 zoom lens. List price in 1999 was $19,700.00.”Zoom Lenses are amazing in the s16 form factor. It makes them significantly lighter, faster, and with a much longer range. This is a particularly special and sharp zoom lens with Angenieux character.
