Lindsey Optics, LLC

Lindsey Optics Manufactures Lenses and Filters for Cinematography We are a new company, yet we have a long history in optics. Our President - Dwight Lindsey - has 39 years in the Optics business and was recently C.E.O. of Schneider Optics, with offices in New York and Los Angeles, part of the worldwide Schneider Group. We are based in Lancaster, California, just North of Los Angeles. Our mission is to offer innovative optics of the highest quality. Our Brilliant Macro lens attachments are "Astonishingly Sharp". They work "Brilliantly" on cine primes and compact zoom lenses by Canon, Cooke, Fujinon, Zeiss and others. Zoom through Macro!! Our Motion Picture Filters are unique: When we began imagining what a better filter should be, we came up with a short (but important) list that sets us apart: We offer a rock-hard, multi-layer broadband anti-reflection coating on many of our filters. Every filter is manufactured to the highest standard of flatness. Our filters are tested for flatness on our phase-shift Zygo laser interferometer – this matters to us because the flatter the filter, the sharper your image will be. Our Brilliant IR ND’s are solid glass filters with no plastic inter-layer. That means they will never fade, warp, or change. They also attenuate all wavelengths of light (not just the visible) and don't clip red wavelengths, so your images will have fully-saturated reds without any infra-red pollution. They'll aid you in creating truly brilliant images. Our Brilliant-Pol Polarizers work better at reducing reflections and pumping up color saturation, giving you more control over how much reflection you eliminate. Our latest products include the Brilliant² Rota Pol Circular Polarizer, The Brilliant² Variable ND Neutral Density Filter, the full set of Brilliant² Tray Mount Close-Up Lenses (Diopters) and the very new Brilliant² Rota-Streak filters.
