Features:

  • In combination with a wide range of available prime and zoom lenses, the Brilliant Macro attachment lenses give complete creative control over object field size, working distance, perspective and near/far size relationships in Macro Cinematography.
  • The Brilliant Macro attachment lenses work perfectly with prime lenses by Zeiss, Cooke and Schneider, and has Zoom Through Macro capability with Compact Zooms such as the Zeiss CZ 70-20.
  • When shooting close up, whether it's commercial table top work or to add razor sharp details to a feature film, the Brilliant Macro lenses are a terrific new tool!

Design

The +2 Brilliant Macro's 3-element aspheric design, using exotic optical glass, offers performance that far exceeds that of two element achromatic doublets. Because there is a purpose built Brilliant Macro +3 in the set, there is no need to stack adapters to image very small object fields.

Brilliant Macro lenses do not suffer from light loss when working in the macro range. A T2.0 prime lens and Brilliant Macro combination remains a T2.0 system. Compact and light weight, Brilliant Macro Lenses are designed to attach directly to the base lens via a suite of available adapters.

While the Brilliant Macro Lenses cannot improve the performance of the lens they are used with, when the base lens is good enough, these macro adapters can achieve resolution up to 200 lp/mm.

Brilliant Macro Lenses are available in three strengths: +1, +2 and +3. By choosing specific combinations of base lens focal length and Brilliant Macro strength, the user has complete creative control of object size, working distance and perspective in the macro space.

Compatibility

They work with cine prime lenses by Cooke, Leica, Schneider, Zeiss, as well as compact zooms by Zeiss, Sigma, Tokina and others.

When used with a high quality compact zoom, the image stays in focus through the entire zoom range, giving a new dimension in macro cinematography.

Used in combination with a Cooke 5i T1.4 lens, the Brilliant Macro Lenses make large aperture macro possible, allowing new creative possibilities utilizing the shallow depth of field from that large aperture.

Adapters are available to attach the Brilliant Macro lenses to a range of professional lenses for cinematography.
