- TLS 50mm Canon FL Rangefinder-X T0.95 Lens (Dream Lens)

--

The Canon 50mm T0.95, also known as the "Dream Lens," became an iconic lens when it launched in August 1961. During the 1950s and 1960s, many manufacturers developed ultra-high-speed lenses for low-light photography, but none could rival the speed of Canon's 50mm T0.95.

Designed by renowned lens engineer Mukai Jirou, the Canon 50mm f/0.95 features a 7-element, 5-group construction. Its rear element is so large that it had to be shaved on one side to accommodate the rangefinder cam, making it necessary to rehouse the lens in LPL mount for use in cinema applications.

This groundbreaking lens remains highly sought after by collectors and filmmakers for its unique characteristics and exceptional low-light performance.
