Compact Anamorphic: Sirui Saturn 50mm t2.9 1.6x Review on Fujifilm X-H2s

[@clausstahl5413]

Hi Andrei, I am very intereseted in the anamorphic world but it's so hard to get in and understand it. There are so many questions I have...what makes a full frame anamorphic lense on a fuji apsc sensor? should I film in open gate, dci or 16:9 and what are the different results? What makes the adapter? Maybe you can do a video on that theme because most review are made for Sony shooters when it gets to anamorphic.

Hello, that is a great idea for a video, I will add it to my January list.

thanks

[@AndreiDimaReviews]

You're welcome!

looks like you have done the heavy pincushion distortion fix in post , and it looks great !

[@AndreiDimaReviews]

The pincushion distortion is not that visible on APS-C.

[@AaronFerenc]

Great video! Thank you. Just wondering, do these lenses autofocus, or is that not even a thing with anamorphic?

[@AndreiDimaReviews]

Glad you liked it! These lenses are manual, I don't know if there are any autofocus anamorphic lenses.

[@FIRUFILMS]

hello the XH2 can record anamorphic? or in the XH2S only? have a anamorphic menu or not?

[@omichalek]

Please does focus peak highlighting work without problems on the squeezed image or do you use external monitor? I wonder how these Saturns compares to Laowa Nanomorphs, especially in sharpness (to use for stills). Laowas close-focus considerably shorter for one thing. Apparently they both have pincushion distortion (35mm versions at least)

[@AndreiDimaReviews]

Yes, the focus peaking works just fine and it is visible. The Sirui lenses are maybe a touch better than the Laowa ones. I used the Laowa lenses just for a phew hours so maybe you should do more research.

Hola estas en Madrid si? Me gustaría probar o ver esas lentes justo en la h2s. Por mi gusto son demasiadas sharp,y la palabra que mucho dices cinematic no la tienen, justo al revés. Parece ser como una lente sferica moderna. Las lentes mas pro tienen caracter y muchisimo menos sharp. Tambien se nota casi cero separacion y bokeh. Però repito me gustaria probarlas o cuánto menos verlas

[@AndreiDimaReviews]

Hola, vivo en Valencia. Creo que estos lentes están a medio camino entre los lentes modernos y los lentes clásicos.

Next goal purchase

Don't get me wrong, the lens is awesome but the xh2s is really getting slept on. With the right lens, it looks really filmic!

[@AndreiDimaReviews]

Slept on? There are a lot of content creators using it for video and some even for commercial work.

[@eYACTION]

It is the perfect anamorphic lens for me I think 😅👌

[@AndreiDimaReviews]

You would make some great videos with a lens like this!

[@eYACTION]

@@AndreiDimaReviews when I have enough money I think about it 😁😭😭

[@anotherintrospekt6596]

You always use the word cinematic 😃

[@AndreiDimaReviews]

It was a pun. So, did you like the video?
