Hartblei is an international manufacturer of optical equipment for photography based in Kyiv and Munich. They are primarily known for producing tilt-shift lenses (Super-Rotator). In 2006 Hartblei started a collaboration with Carl Zeiss AG, adapting Zeiss lens designs for tilt-shift use.
Lenses Using the unique Super-Rotator design, Hartblei tilt-shift lenses are capable of tilting in any axis, making it more flexible than other lenses such as the Canon TS-E 90mm lens. Hartblei Super-Rotator lenses are 360° tilt-shift lenses. Some current versions of the Super-Rotator feature German-made Zeiss optics. Hartblei optics (full frame format)
