Description

With MKII, we started from scratch! Every element of mechanics and MKI body was changed to achieve the next level of performance, precision, and reliability! The new design now has the universal position of gears across the set, an easily shimmable PL / EF mount system (with more mount options to come), T-stop markings, Reverse Direction Focus Scale, a 15 aperture blade iris for every lens and much more!

At the heart of it all, we now have what we call a “hybrid focus system”, which is a combination of a new & refined helicoid combined with technology generally found in CAM-driven focus systems. The result is a very reliable, rugged focus system that feels like a CAM-driven focus ring, even on lenses with weighty optical blocks such as Helios 40-2 and Tair-11A. Combined with an internal focus design that no longer limits the clip-on Matt Box weight, these lenses are now an absolute joy to use, which is what MKII rehousing is all about. Our goal was to make these beautiful optics capable of handling even the most demanding filming environments, and with MKII, we finally achieved this goal!

Our lenses work perfectly on the best cinema cameras from Arri, RED, BlackMagic, Zcam, Kinefinity, etc.

JUPITER-9 85mm T2.1 (F2) is yet another very popular Soviet lens and it competes the very popular Soviet Trio (37mm 58mm 85mmm). This 85mm is based on Zeiss Sonnar equivalent and shares most of the characteristics with the other 2 lenses it’s often used with. One of its best features is the 15 blade aperture, which keeps that bokeh nice and round at any F-stop. Even though at 0.8m its minimum focusing distance is not outstanding, it’s great for really tight “bohehlicios” shots!

Please note, if you plan to use these lenses with 35mm film cameras, such as Aanton 235/535, Arri 235/435/535, etc., you will need a replacement iris ring to get enough clearance above the mirror chamber. We can provide these replacement rings free of charge or install them when assembling your order, so please let us know if you need them once your order has been made.
