The value never stops growing
CineTraits isn't a static library. New lenses, tests, and optical data are added every week. If a lens you're looking for isn't here today, it's likely coming soon because we want to lab test all of them.
We are endlessly adding features and refining what we offer to be the best in class within this industry. Your subscription isn't a fixed purchase for what exists now — it's access to an ever-expanding resource that grows more valuable with every update.
Lock in your early adopter rate by paying yearly.
What's included at every tier
CineTraits is free to browse — but full lens data, tests, and professional tools require a subscription.
Free tier lets you browse lens names and basic specs, but you can only view visual test data, character traits, and use tools like Compare and Discover on open-access lenses — a small rotating selection. Lab-tested lens data is locked behind Indie or Hollywood.
