We're down to the VERY last few Petzval pre-order lenses for the May 2014 delivery, so order now to get your lenses sooner than the rest.

We are very thrilled to see that so many people are already able to take such terrific shots even though we only started sending out the lenses recently! Read more

“What do I like the most about it? The bokeh; when you manage to get that swirly effect. Its not written in stone that you’ll always get the swirl, so you need to experiment with the lens.” – Obi Blanche | Read more |

It was a pleasure meeting Geoffrey Berliner, executive director of the Penumbra Foundation and the Center for Alternative Photography in New York City. Not only that, but he owns over 2000 vintage Petzval Lenses! We previously featured a brief interview with him in the website, but here’s a more in-depth talk with a true-blue Petzval fan!
