Century Precision Optics is the premier manufacturer of professional video lens accessories and a renowned source of specialty lens tools for filmmakers and videographers.

50+ Years of Creative Engineering for Cinematography

Founded in 1948, Century quickly gained a reputation for expert lens repair, custom modification and intelligent innovation. A stream of new shooting tools for cinematographers has emerged over the years, including Periscopes, Low Angle prisms, and the Series 2000 family of custom lens conversions.

Starting with lenses from manufacturers like Canon, Nikon, Cooke, and Kinoptik, we re-engineer them from the inside out, to produce true cine lenses with all the features expected by today's cinematographer—all sporting large, dual side engravings, expanded focus scales, and integral focus/iris gears.
