Description
The Module 8 L1 Tuner is an innovative new lens that transforms your modern digital cameras into a nostalgic dream machine, created by 13x Academy Award Winner and legendary cinema lens designer Iain Neil. It unlocks the cinematic magic of vintage films with a simple twist on lens adapter, available in three distinct looks. The L1 Tuner is inspired by The Baltars. It gives you all of the glamour and glowing halation seen in a classic Super Baltar lens. It can evoke emotion by creating the nostalgic warmth, romance, and gritty realism of classic films, like the Godfather. When you max out this look, we like to call it the Wicked Baltars.
The Tuner seamlessly integrates into your existing camera rig and allows adjustment of the look and character of your images in real time, during the shot. No more hunting down expensive lenses, paying exorbitant lens rehousing fees, or investing in the latest hyped up “detuned prime lenses”. The Module 8 Tuners work seamlessly with your existing glass to create the cinematic looks cherished by the top cinematographers. The Tuners now come in two lens mounts, EF and PL. The EF Tuners are compatible with Sony E Mount, RF Mounts on Canon and RED cameras and Leica L mount. The EF Tuners include build in electronics support for autofocus, aperture control and image stabilization of electronic lenses from Canon, Sigma and Tamron are supported.
