"The 70mm Primos are beautiful – just amazing! I have never seen lenses that hold their sharpness and contrast across the entire frame. … They are also light, fast and the lens sizes in the kit are perfect. The two zooms we used are excellent -- incredibly close to the primes." -Peter Menzies Jr., ACS

"It’s the glass. No matter what camera body or format I choose, Panavision glass has always been the best. I’ve never worked with anything that comes close to what they do with their lenses. And Dan Sasaki is a lens genius. He can explain the mechanics and tweak the glass in ways I’d never imagined." -Lisa Wiegand, ASC Coach Swagger Bag, Choose Me, Explained, Genius, Dan, Format, Lisa

"This was my first big gig with Panavision. Being at Leavesden, there was a great deal of logic to selecting them, and it turned into an incredible experience! Having them right there helped because everything was on hand and I could do my testing while figuring out how I wanted to shoot things." -Anthony Dod Mantle, ASC, BSC, DFF Camera Techniques, Great Deals, Mantle, Anthony, Skills, The Incredibles, Turn Ons, Film

"The incredible wealth of lenses, and the people that make and modify them, are one of Panavision’s greatest assets. We ultimately chose Primo primes and zooms for Hollywood Adventures and they performed flawlessly. Sharp, but not too sharp. Clean, but still full of character. They just feel like the movies.” -Sam Chase, Cinematographer

Watching big Hollywood productions as a child back in Germany, the Panavision logo at the end of film credits was the label of greatness to me. I knew I had just seen something amazing. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine myself next to one of their cameras. Working with Panavision is always a collaboration with friends. You know you are taken care of and well supported. Wherever you take their equipment, you take that comfort with you. -Uta Briesewitz, ASC

"... Shooting 2 perf on a Panavision Gold II and Platinum gave us that widescreen frame to showcase the desolate landscape of the Salton Sea. At times, our composition would be evocative of a western — playing characters on each side of the frame. In post, we selectively saturated colors in the frame so that they would seem to pop out, inspired by Eggleston’s photography." -DP Reed Morano Female Directors, Photography Talk, Creative Photography, The Skeleton Twins, Film Equipment, He Got Game, Playing Character, Eternal Sunshine

For his latest endeavor, Daryn Okada, ASC handled cinematography duties for director Luke Greenfield on Let’s Be Cops, a comedy about a pair of losers who impersonate police on a lark, and end up way over their heads. Okada envisioned a look that evolved as the characters’ situation changes. The filmmakers felt that creating a realistic feeling with the imagery would help the audience identify with the characters. - http://pvlink.net/1qaIHWV

Panavision Helps Take Images Further

I’m not a technical person, but I can talk to the Panavision folks about my thought processes— about why certain images look the way they do—and then the company develops the tools that allow me to emulate that quality. -Samuel Bayer
