Designed for vintage character
Included in the Tuned Lens Set
Unique Lens Coatings for Characterful Flares
One of the standout features of the TUNED series is the specially formulated lens coatings. These coatings are designed to interact with light in a way that produces flares with abundant character. The result is a cinematic flair that enhances storytelling by adding visual interest and depth to your images.
Redesigned Optical Elements for Softer Bokeh
The lenses incorporate a tuned element design and different coatings compared to the standard Athena series. This redesign results in softer bokeh, allowing for smooth and creamy out-of-focus areas. The subtle blue/purple flares add an extra layer of uniqueness, making your visuals stand out.
Vintage Character Without the Drawbacks
The Athena TUNED lenses deliver the sought-after unique aesthetics— like lower contrast and blooming highlights—without the common issues associated with classic lenses, such as difficult-to-control flares and focus breathing. This means you can achieve the unique look you desire while maintaining modern reliability and ease of use.
Distinctive Silver Barrel Finish
Aesthetics meet functionality with the TUNED series’ silver barrel finish. This distinctive look not only sets it apart visually but also pays homage to classic lens designs. The silver finish is not just about appearance; it also reflects heat better than darker colors, potentially reducing thermal expansion and maintaining optical performance in varying temperatures.
Softer sharpness and more bokeh for softer skin tones and vintage look




Special lens element for more vintage, atmospheric background bokeh


Special nano-coating that produces highlight blooming similar to black mist to add to vintage atmosphere.

Get all the character, without any focus breathing
