Probably combined with an Arri BL, which was the ubiquitous camera that went with the lens, as used by TV news crews all over the place, and certainly by the BBC, before they switched to the Arri SR with Zeiss Distagon lenses in the mid 1980s,

They were ubiquitous for a good while, but they really weren't very sharp. Angenieux made hundreds of different lenses back then... and some of them were better than others but if someone said "french zoom" your first thought was probably that 12-120. --scott _______________________________________________ FrameWorks mailing list FrameWorks@jonasmekasfilms.com https://mailman-mail5.webfaction.com/listinfo/frameworks
