True Lens Services, also known as TLS, a privately owned company headquartered in the UK, was founded in 2001 and employs approximately 20 individuals. The company specializes in the design, customization, manufacturing, servicing, and repair of cinema and broadcast lenses.
On February 15, 2026, True Lens Services (TLS) showcased its new Vega65 lens and initiated its 25th-anniversary celebrations at BSC Expo 2026, the UK's premier cinematography event. This presentation followed the company's formal introduction of the Vega65 on February 5, 2026, highlighting its development as the first lens created entirely in-house by TLS, with its story beginning in 2017. Previously, on December 15, 2025, TLS announced flexible finance options to assist customers with the investment of purchasing or rehousing lenses. On the same day, cinematographer Adolpho Veloso employed TLS Kowa Cine Prominar lenses for the film *Train Dreams*, aiming to evoke memories rather than precise historical depiction. Earlier, on November 17, 2025, Berlin-based cinematographer Michael Krautter utilized TLS rehoused Leica lenses to achieve images he describes as alive, natural, and atmospheric.
