Hawk/Vantage

Hawk V-Lite Vintage 74 Lenses

Anamorphic prime lenses made in Germany by Vantage Film, using the same optical and mechanical design as the standard V-Lites but with coatings that replicate the look of 1970s anamorphic glass. Available in 2x and 1.3x squeeze versions. They flare easily, have reduced contrast, and render warm skin tones.
