Hans Jura (21 March 1921 in Vienna – 25 November 1996 in Bad Ischl) was an Austrian cinematographer, most famous for his collaborations with the erotic film director Radley Metzger.[1][2]

In the 1940s, Jura trained in photography and film. After World War II he began his career as a cameraman for short documentary films. In 1963, he was awarded the Filmband in Gold for his work on The Endless Night [de] and, in 1964, the same award again for The River Line. Until 1988, Jura lived in Munich and worked as cameraman for the Wiener Musikverein before moving back to Bad Ischl.
