Congratulations on the purchase of Angénieux Optimo Prime lenses and IOP tooling set. After 50 years almost fully dedicated to high-end zoom
lens design and production, Angénieux chose the Cannes Film Festival to announce a complete set of high-end Full Frame Prime lenses –the
Optimo Prime series, in partnership with Band Pro Film & Digital, Inc and Jebsen Industrial Technology Co LTD.
The Optimo Prime series of 12 lenses provides full frame 46.3mm image circle coverage with a consistent 1.8 T-stop for most of the lenses. To
match with the legacy Optimo zooms, all Optimo Primes have identical colorimetry. Available with PL mount the Optimo Primes are the perfect
companion for your digital camera. They can also be configured with LPL mount as an option.
IMPORTANT: Please be aware that Optimo Prime lenses won’t fit on a camera with a reflex view finder.
All lenses support Cooke/i and are ARRI LDS2 ready; and offer a common gear size and position for all lenses in the 12-lens set.
The Optimo Prime series is composed of a total of 12 focal lengths with 18mm, 21mm, 24mm, 28mm, 32mm, 40mm, 50mm, 60mm, 75mm,
100mm, 135mm and 200mm.
Last but not least we allow you to go further than the standard Optimo Prime configuration to serve your creativity by using our unique Integrated
Optical Palette (IOP) technology. This includes three methods to achieve your own personalized look with iris blade unit for different bokeh
(including anamorphic effect), internal optical element and rear optical filter.
This user manual describes the different configurations and uses of your Optimo Prime IOP tooling set. If you need additional information don’t
hesitate to contact us at angenieuxserv[email protected]lesgroup.com. Additional product documentation is available on the Angénieux website at the
service and support page: https://www.angenieux.com/service-and-support/.

CAUTION
Always follow these guidelines to ensure against injury to yourself or others and damage to the system or other objects.
This safety information comes in addition to the product specific operating instructions in general and must be strictly observed
for safety reasons.
Read and understand all safety and operating instructions before you operate or install the lens.
Do not use accessories or attachments that are not recommended by Angénieux, as they may cause hazards and invalidate
the warranty.
Do not attempt to repair any part of the system! Repairs must only be carried out by authorized Angénieux Service Centers.
Do always use a clean area to open any Optimo Prime lenses to prevent from dust pollution.
Do always perform IOP elements swapping using only the IOP spanners.
WARNINGS
Handle any lens with care.
Do not expose lens to water or moisture.
Do not subject the lens to shocks.
Never insert objects of any kind into any part of the lens if these are not clearly qualified for the task in the manual.
Do not remove screws locked by varnish.
Changing camera lenses should be done in a dry and dust-free environment. If this is not possible, take extra care that no dust
enters the camera while the lens is off.
Keep the protective caps on the lens when not set on camera or not in operation.
Follow the cleaning instructions in this manual to avoid damage of the lens.
Do not look at high intensity light directly through any lens.

STORAGE CONDITIONS
Store any lens in a dry place where the temperature does not exceed –40°C and +70°C (- 40°F and + 158°F).
Do not store the lens in places where it may be subject to extreme temperatures, direct sunlight, high humidity, severe vibration,
or strong magnetic fields.
Condensation: When moving the lens from a cold to a warm location or when the lens is used in a damp environment,
condensation may appear on glass surfaces and on internal or external electrical connections. Operating the lenses while
condensation is present may result in damage to the equipment. Condensation on the optical components may have a visible
effect on the output images. To prevent condensation, store the lens in a dry area. If the lens is in a humid area, dry it and
store it a plastic bag with desiccant before using it. After moving the lens from cold to warm and humid environment, wait for
some time for the lens to warm up to the ambient temperature to avoid condensation.
TEMPERATURE OF OPERATION
Any lens is designed to be used between - 20°C and + 45°C (- 4°F and + 113°F).
The opto-mechanical design is passively athermalized. It allows Optimo Primes to prevent from a back focus shift with
temperature changes.
RECYCLING AND ENVIRONMENT
Optimo Prime series and IOP tooling set are free of chemical substances covered by European Regulation REACH in excess
of the thresholds set out. Follow the guidance sets up by your local authority for recycling the Optimo Prime lenses or the IOP
tooling set.
