TRIBE7 BLACKWING T-TUNED
Every BLACKWING7 lens is hand-built, using proprietary production processes which allow the optical performance of each lens in the range to be uniquely configured and tuned to their owner’s wishes and creative style.
The Tuned “T” tuning providing a smoother image with slightly more focus fall off and flaring.
Many of the design cues for BLACKWING7 primes originate in optics manufactured during the 1930 – 1960s
The lens range comprises nine focal lengths: a core set of seven plus two additional wide lenses, configurable and customisable at point of manufacture.
