Dallmeyer lenses
Dallmeyer was an English optical company started in the mid 19th century and continuing until the mid 20th. Some Dallmeyer lenses are cult items in the bokeh community, fetching tens of thousands of dollars. Luckily there are still many that are reasonably priced, and many have unique renderings. I’m lumping all of them together here, and will identify the lenses used in the captions.
