Meyer Optic Görlitz started out as a promising source of alternative lenses for Leica cameras. Unfortunately the company has a very bad reputation because of its previous owners. Through a Kickstarter campaign they collected a lot of money which, in most cases, did not result in the delivery of any products. The company eventually went bankrupt.
Fortunately, the company
was bought during the bankruptcy proceedings
by OPC Optics and they have been working hard to earn back the public
trust. They promise that crowdfunding
will play no role in the company’s future. OPC Optics will be reintroducing
Meyer Optik Görlitz to the world at Photokina 2020.
OPC Optics Managing
director Timo Heinze announced that the company will show six lenses at
Photokina, the Trioplan 100, Trioplan 50, Trioplan 35, Primoplan 75, Primoplan
58, and the Lydith 30. All lenses are
currently in production and should be available at the time of Photokina.

Heinze stated that “All
lenses are completely developed and manufactured in Germany with the utmost
care and attention to detail. We are proud of the high-quality realization of
our product developments, but even more proud of all the impressive and unique
results that photographers have created so far and will create with the new
versions of Meyer Optik Görlitz’s lenses.”
At Photokina Meyer Optik
Görlitz will present an exhibition with numerous large format photographs,
which were created in cooperation with well-known photographers, on more than
200 square meters. The individual styles of the photographers will provide a
versatile overall picture and highlight the unique imaging characteristics of
Meyer Optik Görlitz lenses. Each lens will be presented in a separate area with
10 large format prints. Thus, visitors to the booth will be able to get an
impression of the many creative possibilities and the amazing picture
characters.
