Trevor Porter, technical director at Top-Teks said :“With this new equipment we can efficiently test not only on the lenses we have serviced but also offer a service to test users lenses prior to any important shoot or check them before or after a rental.“
Mike Thomas, Sales Director at Top-Teks, added: “As a prime supplier of the Sony F65 and Canon C500 cameras we are in the forefront of high end digital cinema and the emphasis now on PL lens performance is very demanding. Our customers need to know that the lenses we supply new or serviced are in prime condition and the MTF reporting software can supply them with documentary evidence the to confirm this."

The equipment was supplied to Top-Teks through UK & Ireland Chrosziel distributor Octica Professional.
