The ASC has restored and relaunched a rare set of Todd-AO 65mm lenses from the ASC Museum archives, now available for modern productions through Keslow Camera @keslowcamera . Originally developed in the 1950s for Oklahoma! and other 65mm epics, the Todd-AO lenses helped define the widescreen era of Hollywood.

Rebuilt in collaboration with Zero Optik @zerooptik and fine-tuned with input from Greig Fraser, ASC, ACS @greigfraser_dp , the project preserves the lenses’ vintage character while adapting them for today’s digital workflows. The first to use them was Christian Sprenger, ASC @casprenger , for Apple TV Plus’ Widow’s Bay.

ALL EPISODES of M.I.A. are NOW STREAMING, only on @peacock!

We are thrilled to celebrate the premiere of this new crime drama, starring Shannon Gisela (@its_shannyg) and Cary Elwes (@caryelwes). When her family's drug-running business shatters in tragedy, Etta Tiger Jonze (Gisela) embarks on a dangerous journey through Miami's neon-lit underbelly. 🎬

Congratulations to series DPs Ross Riege (@rossriege) and Chris Manley, ASC (@manley_asc), and the entire camera team for bringing the vibrant, gritty world of South Florida to life. We are incredibly proud to have supported this stunning production out of our Atlanta branch, providing the gear needed to capture the tension and action of this highly anticipated series.

Thank you to Anthony Zibelli (@azcameras) for the BTS shots! 📸

ONE SPOON OF CHOCOLATE is NOW PLAYING in theaters nationwide!

We sat down with DP Brandon Cox (@bcoxdp), an AFI Conservatory graduate and twenty-four-year martial artist, to discuss his second collaboration with director RZA, starring Shameik Moore. Brandon walked us through his Shotdeck-based visual development process — printing over a hundred reference sheets to build the film’s look with RZA from the ground up — the decision to shoot on ARRI Alexa Mini with Hawk V-Lite Vintage ’74 anamorphics, and a grade pushed hard into 1970s exploitation film territory by design.

5 Lens Attributes Every DP Needs to Know. From blade count to bokeh, discover what separates standard glass from a storytelling tool.

Here’s what to look for:
1. Speed: Consistent T-stops across your entire set are non-negotiable. Shane looks for T1.3, T1.4, and T1.8. Once a lens hits T2.4 or higher it falls off his list. Inconsistent stops slow down your gaffer and cost you time on set.

2. Flaring: A flare is a fingerprint. Shane actively seeks lenses with color variation, rainbow characteristics, and unique behaviors that no color suite can fully replicate in post.

3. Metadata: In LED volume and VFX-heavy productions, smart lens tracking data saves budgets. Accelerometers, gyroscopes, real time focus and T-stop data. Shane learned the hard way on a feature what it costs when that data isn’t there. He won’t skip it again.

4. Optical Fall-Off: A lens delivering 150 lines of resolution corner to corner looks technically flawless and feels emotionally flat. Natural edge fall-off pulls the eye inward toward the subject and does the compositional work for you.

5. Blades and Bokeh:Cooke glass has 7 blades. On a digital sensor, beautiful out-of-focus lights become stop signs. The more blades, the more circular the bokeh, even when you stop down.

Want to see Shane put all five attributes to the test across budget and premium glass? The course is live on Filmmakers Academy. Click the link in bio.
