Here is a view of the Ultra Panavision Lens with a 99mm prime lens on loan from Boston Light and Sound! It is going to be so much fun.

My brother lives not too far from there, so I've passed this information on to him.

That lens was/is quite a piece of glass!
It's not just a 'lens'- - it's a LENS ! Here's a couple more images of one:

The print is on its way home, so I think we can officially call that a wrap! It was an amazing experience to show something like this, and holy cow was it an incredible image on screen.

Huge thanks to Sean McKinnon for hooking us up with the lenses and Brad Miller for getting us the print!
