Is a replica of the Dallmeyer Septac Anastigmat 50mm f/1.5 about to be released? Maybe from DK-Optic? I came across this image on Instagram today:

Could be. They've got a picture of it in their banner on their site...

http://www.dk-optic.com/

Since it's them, though, is it a remake or a rehouse like most of their products? Whatever the case, they do good work. A coworker of mine has a handful of their FD remounts and they are all smooth as silk.

DK-O will have a booth (s1201) at the ATL Cinegear Expo next month. Anyone planning to go to that? If so, maybe you could ask about this lens.

It is still uncertain if or when this lens will be released. They posted a side-by-side comparison with the LLL 50mm f/1.5 Z21 on their Instagram page.

Does anyone have more information about it?

Nope. I found someone going to the ATL Cinegear, and he asked, but the reps either had no idea what he was talking about or they're being intentionally tight-lipped.

Hello everyone, jonathan here from Illuvision / DK optics. Just googled this and found you guys. Happy to answer any questions. Please email me at [email protected] for an order.

The black is $2k with amber coating
The silver is $2.3k usd uncoated.

We have them ready to ship.

I was the one who personally was at Cinegear ATL, anyone make it out there and meet me?

In regards to that day, I was there, and the owner of the company Kyo was there, and there was one guy who didn't know anything about lenses but was helping us translate for the owner time to time. Me on the other hand, I live in Atlanta. During this time, it was brought to my attention that the still lens existed, as I was only aware of the Cinema version in PL mount that Illuvision sells.

Feel free to reach out to me, email me, text me with any questions. 737.932.0022

What is the lens mount? I went to their website but it is in Chinese, which unfortunately I do not understand.

Thanks! Is it rangefinder coupled? I assume it is looking at the top pic.

Can you elaborate? Ranger finder coupled as in Canon Rangefinder? This is a Dallmeyer Septac Impastolite.

Here's an original copy sold at auction.

Yes, all these camera versions are processed as coupling. Got word from the lens designer officially.
