    • Abstract:
      The article discusses the developments of optical lens technology in cinematography, as of May 2019. Topics discussed include the history of the lens, the moments of marvelous intimacy created by director Claire Denis and cinematographer Agnès Godard with the faraway-so-close long lens shots, and the decision of Super Baltar manufacturer Bausch & Lomb to get out of the cinema lens and focus on contacts.
