35KP-1,8 / 70

In short

35KP-1,8 / 70 - Soviet film projection lens, manufactured at the Izyum Dzerzhinsky Instrument-Making Plant. On the case there is a quality mark and the inscription 'GOST 3840-79'. Nowadays it can be used as a creative lens after appropriate adaptation.

Cinema projection lenses are prized for their exclusive image character. 35KP-1,8 / 70 turned out to be sharp and creates a pleasant picture with the character inherent in planars. In my opinion, this is one of the best film projection and cinema lenses in the family of their kind. Of the obvious shortcomings - tangible chromatic aberration and not the best backlit work requiring a lens hood.

Appearance

The lens consists of only one massive lens unit and requires adaptation for use on modern digital cameras. A sufficiently long flange distance allows the 35KP-1,8 / 70 to be adapted for both mirrorless and SLR cameras.

Sample Photos

Sample photos with original RAW files were helped by the photographer Natalya romanenko (instagram). Convert RAW source files with Nikon D700 original utility Nikon Capture NX-D v 1.4.6. The lens does not have an aperture, and therefore you can always shoot exclusively at F / 1.8.

  • Trueash

    Yes, the sharpness in the open (it's the only one :) is enviable. And even the test shots look very attractive.
    As I understand it, the pipe is metal?

    • Arkady Shapoval

      pipe from a can of olives

      • Trueash

        This is me guessing how difficult it will be to remake it on my knee

        • Alexander

          And here is a jar of olives for you)

  • Aries

    KP is a series of cinema projection lenses similar to the “Ukraine 35” projector

  • Porfiry Reshetov

    I shot with a 35KP1,8 / 140 lens on a color film, the quality is amazing, in the center it transmits 100 lines per millimeter. I did not shoot on the digital, I do not want to litter the matrix. If I buy a carcass I will try. Filmed with anamorphic attachment. The impression is not very good.

    • Rodion

      Which one of 35kp is a heavy planar or a “hollow” aplanat?

    • Alexander

      but what if a couple of dust particles fall on the matrix and they need to be blown away?)) What if I bother with this, I would not try a lot of such lenses so far!)) The technique should work, and wear it in a sterile bag like- that's not an option at all. To smear the matrix is ​​one thing, and then, to clean it like two fingers on the asphalt, and not as scary as various articles on the internet make it creepy, and to fall into dust for it as a matter of course and does not affect wear at all.

      • Alexander

        I support your cheerful answer!) With such success as Porfiry, you need to take a camera with a non-replaceable lens and absolutely not fool around)) The whole point of cameras with interchangeable lenses is the ability to change lenses whenever and wherever!)
        I have a favorite 35KP 1,8 / 140 ..., it's just a bomb lens, a la petsval .., I went more than 70ki and others like that.
