Professional Cinema Lens Supply

The contract entails the supply of Nikon NIKKOR Z-series cinema lenses specifically engineered for compatibility with RED V-RAPTOR cameras, targeting high-speed imaging applications. These lenses are required to meet stringent optical and mechanical performance standards to support precision capture in demanding scientific and operational environments. The procurement is structured as a subcontract under the NAICS code 334310, indicating classification within the photographic and photocopying equipment manufacturing sector, and is managed by the NASA Shared Services Center on behalf of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. Delivery and performance are expected to align with mission-critical timelines, with technical specifications emphasizing seamless integration, durability, and consistency in high-frame-rate scenarios. Responses to this solicitation are due by July 7, 2026, at 8:00 PM Eastern Time, following a posting date of July 1, 2026. The contract does not specify a set-aside for small businesses or other categories, and no place of performance details are provided, suggesting flexibility in logistics as long as deliverables meet NASA’s operational requirements. All equipment must be fully functional upon delivery and capable of supporting advanced imaging tasks without proprietary software dependencies, ensuring interoperability within existing NASA camera systems. The absence of a point of contact implies that inquiries must be directed through the official SAM.gov portal linked in the contract posting.
