Kinoptik was founded in 1932 by Georges Grosset and Georges Perthuis. In 1944, they began producing lenses and viewfinders for 35 mm cine cameras. In addition to the popular primes, their Tegea 9.8 T2.3 (35mm format) and 5.7 T2 (16mm format) were widely used, albeit giving new meaning to the word “vignetting” before the term “shading” was popularized.
Manufacturing of Kinoptik cine lenses began in Paris in the 1950s. Optical designs for the APO 100 and 150 mm began in 1947, followed by the 28 and 50 in 1949, and the 25 and 75 in 1955.
Kinoptik was sold in 1981 by the son of the founder, and a series of different endeavors ensued: endoscopy, astronomy, industrial vision and hostile environment optics (nuclear).
