Angénieux is a French manufacturer of photographic and cinematographic lenses. The main markets are cinema, television, space travel and medicine. The company is part of the Thales Group, which represents Angénieux in 48 countries. The company is headquartered in Saint-Héand, near Saint-Étienne in France.
Founded in 1935 by Pierre Angénieux, the company is established in Saint-Héand (Loire), the birthplace of its founder located near Saint-Étienne. His original specialty is the design and manufacture of precision optics for film and photography. Ousted from the amateur market in the 1960s, it refocused its activity on two productions that have made its reputation: spatial optics and zooms.
Now part of the Thales Group, Thales Angénieux — since 2017 establishment of Thales Land & Air Systems — also designs, develops and produces military optics, mainly night vision binoculars.
