These lenses were bought in spring, bought as set at Duclos Lenses (including custom Storm case). They're perfect, good as new. Retail cost with tax is $10,132, so you save more than $2K. Duclos Lenses are often out of stock now, and it often takes a couple weeks for them to do modifications. This set is available right away.
I love the lenses -- the're very fast, lightweight, tough, and each have three modifications care of Duclos Lenses that make them great for cine uses. 1) They have permanent, sturdy gear teeth installed on the lenses to work with a follow focus. 2) They have manual iris rings (not available on Zeiss's ZE lenses), and the rings have been de-clicked so you can make smooth, subtle exposure changes while shooting (or dial in exactly what exposure you want) and 3) they have a standard 80mm front ring (77mm filter), so they all mate with a matte box the same way).
Kit includes:
Zeiss ZF.2 21mm f2.8
Zeiss ZF.2 28mm f2.0
Zeiss ZF.2 35mm f1.4
Zeiss ZF.2 50mm Macro f2.0
Zeiss ZF.2 85mm f1.4
Again, these all have industrial-strength Canon mounts (remember to add cost of these to any lenses being compared to these)
And a storm hard case with inserts for 6 lenses (so you have a spare)
