Pre-War Bolex cameras were often equipped with Hugo Meyer lenses, a German manufacturer of photographic lenses founded in the late 1800's. Meyer cine lenses were designed by Dr. Paul Rudolph, who is credited for introducing the first Anastigmatic lens in 1890 – the Protars – while under the employment of Carl Zeiss. This was followed in 1897 by the Planars, and in 1902, the Tessar.
He left Zeiss and, following World-War I, began employment for the production of lenses with Hugo Meyer & Company of Gorlitz, Germany. In 1918, Dr. Rudolph completed the calculation of the Plasmat f/4, a convertible lens with full color correction.
With the increasing poularity of motion pictures, he directed his attention to the development of a Plasmat lens of high speed, so that Plasmat results could be brought to the screen. In 1924, he introduced the Kino Plasmat f/2 – and in 1926, finished the calculation of the Kino Plasmat f/1.5, which at the time was the fastest lens made.
The range of Hugo Meyer cine lenses was expanded to include the Trioplan and Tele Megor series.
