	An introduction to Angenieux lenses
		Pierre Angenieux, was born in July 1907 at St. Heand in the Loire Region, did not establish his optical company until 1935, and so may be considered a relative, if subsequently very successful, newcomer to lens manufacture.
		Angenieux lenses may thus be found fitted to a range of the more popular middle-price Kodak cameras of that period that included the 620 rollfilm models as well as 35’s such as Retinettes and Pony 35’s.
		Angenieux lenses faded from the general photographic market in the 1970’s as the company responded to Japanese competition by concentrating on the more specialised (and less cost-sensitive) military, medical and space-program markets, where it won considerable distinction.

	Exakta SLRs
		The 28mm f3.5 Retrofocus Angenieux and 90mm f2.5 Angenieux both have excellent reputations.
		The 28mm is one of the first, possible the first, extra wide retrofocus design lenses for 35mm SLR cameras.
		Retrofocus is a lens design that allows creating extra wide angle lenses for SLR type cameras.

		In 1950 Angenieux introduced the first retrofocus wide angle lenses for still reflex cameras, the 35./2.5 Angenieux..
		Their new retrofocus design finally allowed the single lens reflex to become the versatile and dominant design it is today.
		Prior to the advent of the retrofocus design, single lens reflex were hampered by the lack of wide angle lenses that could be used with reflex viewing, as non-retrofocus wide angle lenses protrude too far into the mirror box to allow the mirror to swing up out of the way.

		A simple example is the Cooke triplet, which was used in early cameras, but has since been replaced by more complex systems.
		Another, the Angenieux retrofocus allows the distance between the last lens and the film to be larger than it would be otherwise.
		This design is necessary for wide angle lenses on manual cameras, since otherwise the last lens would need to be so close to the film so as to interfere with the mirror.

	Cult Classics in Third Party Lenses (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Angenieux is a French third party lens manufacturer that ranks with Schneider and Zeiss as one of the world's top lens makers.
		Angenieux lenses are unfamiliar to most 35mm SLR users because they are very expensive and come in only a few mounts, chiefly Leica.
		This Angenieux 90mm f/1.8 is an example of a surprisingly fast lens that was originally available for the M42 Universal thread mount popularized by Pentax and others.

	Angenieux retrofocus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Angenieux retrofocus photographic lens was invented in France in 1950 by Pierre Angenieux, and is characterized by a large negative meniscus lens element up front followed by four or five small elements in the rear.
		Users of 35mm single-lens reflex (SLR) cameras appreciate the retrofocus construction, as otherwise very-short-focus lenses would interfere with the operation of the mirror.

		It is almost a copy of the Angenieux Retrofocus 9.5mm f/2.2 shown in figure 4, developed for the 35mm cameras in 1950 France.
		As both lenses were produced about the same time, it is hard to say which was original.
		The Angenieux Company coined the term “Retrofocus” which has become an almost generic term for this lens design today.

	Hasselblad in Cheap's Clothing (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Adapters were made to fit it to the Hasselblad 1000F, and the combination of 52mm Kaligar and Hasselblad adapter remains a highly desirable item among collectors today.
		There was a particular reason why the Kaligar was the widest lens of its day: only about three years after the famous 35mm Angenieux Retrofocus, the 52/3.5 Kaligar was the first retrofocus design lens for medium format.
		The only hard evidence I've seen to support the Kalimar/Kilfitt connection, the family resemblance is clear in this photo of the Kilfitt SLR system from a contemporary magazine.
