I met Philippe Parain during the presentation of the new Fuji film, on the 24th of September last year.
In discussing the quality of the Angénieux zooms, I told him of my "doubts" about the historical flaws, particularly distortions.
On Thursday, November 26, after giving a presentation at the Architectural School of Saint-Etienne, I took advantage of the proximity of St. Héand, and visited Angénieux.
