Angenieux 12-120mm f/2.2
The Angenieux 12-120mm f/2.2 is a 10x cine zoom lens from the French maker Angenieux, designed for 16mm motion-picture cameras and widely used in broadcast and documentary work from the 1960s onwards. Its constant f/2.2 aperture across the zoom range made it a workhorse optic for news, television and wildlife shooters of the era.
At UK auction, hammer prices for this zoom have been modest, with recorded saleroom results of £75 in March 2023 and £88 in October 2025, giving a median around £82. As of today in 2026 the 12-120mm f/2.2 sells for well under £100 at auction-hammer level, reflecting that most copies reaching the market are ex-broadcast examples in cosmetically tired condition; a clean, haze-free body with its original mount and caps would be worth more than these two data points suggest.
