Product Information

This is not a sharp lens. It's an honest one.

Soft edges. Gentle vignetting. The kind of imperfection that feels human. The Archive Optic No.01 renders the world the way memory does—warm, tactile, a little imperfect. Perfect for street photography, travel, documentary work, or anyone seeking film aesthetics without the film process.

Designed for creators who value character over clinical sharpness. For photographers drawn to Fujifilm's film simulations, Leica's rendering philosophy, or the lo-fi warmth of disposable cameras.

Construction: Repurposed disposable camera optics

Film character. No compromises.

Real disposable camera optics, repurposed for mirrorless. The same soft, nostalgic rendering—without buying film.

Authentic Film Rendering

Soft halation around highlights. Natural chromatic aberration. Gentle vignetting. These aren't effects—they're optical characteristics baked into the glass. The same imperfections that made disposable cameras beloved, now with unlimited shots.

Everyday Carry

Pancake-thin profile. Pocket weight. Your mirrorless becomes the camera you actually bring. Film aesthetics without the bulk, cost, or wait.

Zero Friction

Doubles as your body cap, protecting your sensor between shots. When a moment happens, you're already ready. No lens swaps, no setup time. Just shoot.

Use it for

Street & Travel

This is the lens that stays on. Pocket-sized, always ready, never in the way. Perfect for wandering cities, catching strangers mid-laugh, or documenting trips without lugging gear. Pure spontaneity.
Dreamy Portraits

Soft. Glowy. Flattering in ways sharp lenses just aren't. That vintage warmth makes everyone look like they stepped out of a film photograph. No editing required—just beautiful, straight out of camera.
Late Nights & Flash

This thing was made for after dark. Neon signs bloom. Flash gives you that iconic disposable camera glow. Think party pics from the early 2000s, but elevated. Chaotic, nostalgic, impossible to replicate digitally.
Cinematic Landscapes

Forget technical perfection. This lens captures emotion. Soft edges, natural vignetting, that hazy film quality that makes ordinary scenes feel like movie stills. It's how your eyes remember a moment, not how a sensor records it.

Why Archive Optic N°1 belongs in your kit.

Real film optics. Digital freedom. The best of both worlds.
