Panalux history
Panalux company history timeline
The Ultra Panavision 70 technology led to the 1958 unveiling of the 35mm-format Auto Panatar camera lenses, which eliminated the distortions created by early CinemaScope optics.
One result was the introduction, in 1968, of C Series anamorphic primes, which immediately became a go-to choice for cinematographers looking for a compact and lightweight anamorphic lens.
Keeping pace with the company’s advances in camera design, Panavision introduced the 35mm-format Super Speed lenses in 1976, followed closely by Ultra Speed primes.
Panavision did a round on the IndyCar circuit with the company logo appearing on the car driven by motorsports legend Danny Ongais, aka the “Flyin’ Hawaiian” — including at the 1986 Indianapolis 500.
Previously, in 1992, LEE Filters had become a Panavision company.
The Panavision Millennium 35mm camera system, introduced in 1997.
1998 – Technical Achievement Award
2001 – Outstanding Achievement in Engineering Development
In the years that followed, Panavision’s large-format technology supported the artistry behind classic films including Ben-Hur, Lawrence of Arabia, and 2001: A Space Odyssey.
Introduced in 2007, G Series anamorphics combined the compact convenience of the C Series with the optical innovations of Primo Anamorphic lenses.
Panavision’s creative offerings became truly end-to-end in 2015 with the acquisition of post-production company Light Iron.
2016 brought the introduction of Panavision’s T Series anamorphic lenses, which combine new optical layouts with mechanical advances from the G Series while offering a larger sweet spot and closer focusing than some of their predecessors.
