OPTEX BORESCOPE PROBE
The OpTex Borescope is a specialty probe lens system designed for extreme close-up cinematography and unusual camera placements. Its long, narrow front section allows the camera to move into spaces and perspectives that would be impossible with conventional lenses, making it particularly useful for tabletop work, product films, food cinematography, commercials, and specialty macro shots.
Designed for Super 35 capture, the system offers a distinctive probe-lens perspective with deep close-focus capabilities and a highly immersive point of view. It is particularly well suited to shots that require the camera to travel through tight spaces or work extremely close to the subject while maintaining a wide-angle perspective.
