May 3-4, 2024. The Pacific Northwest Lens Summit returned to Koerner Camera in Portland this year. CVP hosted the event in London last year.
Around 30 exhibitors and hundreds of visitors from around the world attended to try, test, look at and look through lots of the latest cine lenses and accessories. Classes, workshops and seminars were presented by lens technicians and experts.
Koerner organized the first PNW Lens Summit in 2017. Michael Koerner said, “The event was the incarnation of an idea: what if there was a smaller, more focused event just for cinema optics, without the often overwhelming nature of a larger tradeshow? To fill that need, the PNW Lens Summit was born.”
