Real Anamorphic lens for Cheap - Moded projector lens

[@halsinden]

really nice to see cross promotion between two channels i really like. mariusz is a lovely fella, too.

[@alexaudiovisuals]

Well I guess we all have one more reason to work out more this year 😂

[@depotmsa2362]

hey this is cool but your camera spacing to lens is off not giving you as sharp of an image as youre supposed to get , look into a anamorphic clamp, and a spacer to get the height of the camera just right

[@somedude7892]

Yeah, but given the size and being mounted on to a rig/tripod/etc while its clamped to a taking lens, I don't think it'd do any good.

[@JoeArant]

I have a modded Schneider Kreuznach 2x anamorphic projector lens and I've noticed two things which you might find helpful. 1) these types of lenses usually aren't respectably sharp until at a minimum 2.8, and 2) you will get vignetting on full frame sensors unless you use at least an 85mm lens. Cheers!

[@MSSTUDIO]

58mn on full frame after mod 😊

[@thaticelandicguy]

Love how creative you are man! :)

[@Babsdoproductions]

I have a few big anamorphics in the toolbox, this would definitely be a nice adjustment as the length of the lenses is a challenge to rig. If there’s really no optical loss or shifting of anamorphic squeeze ratios, then this could be the start of another modified lens market for anamorphics. Definitely wouldn’t go for anything below F2.8 though for general sharpness.

[@adisquo]

shorting the lens will affect the horizontal FOV from 2.0 on the Isco projector scope to around 1.4 squiz if Im correct.

[@kurtlindner]

Very interesting. I really hope Tito does a video about this as well considering he's reviewed basically every Isco out there.

[@DethronerX]

I think the weight comes in consideration for hand held shoots with smaller camera, because for a well stabilized shoot and for tripod shots, we cant have the weight issue. Unless the gimbals can't handle it. I would use the heavy lenses for relaxed photography and not running around handheld haha so it's good for some projects that demand attention and emotion in the scene, slow pans, tracking and still shots with suitable equipment for the support should do it.

[@Imhotep397]

One thing I still have a question about is why there is vignetting, veiling glare with this largeof a front element? Is it a byproduct of shifting the optics forward in the housing?

[@ankitjojha]

Those were some jaw-droppingly stunning shots mate. The first few have ridiculously good color grades too! Wanted to ask: which subscription service is this particular music track from? It’s stunning, and I’d love to look for it and listen to it; would work so well when I’m doing my first-round editing without necessarily listening to anything, making only visual cuts matter.

[@EternalLife91]

Interesting video and good choice of music.

[@RS-Amsterdam]

You always keep amazing us ;-) Thanks for sharing and best wishes for 2020

[@pepperbean243]

But the big one and use an autofocus lens behind it removes the double focusing problem

[@UltraCodex66]

I checked out the website but I'd like to know if anyone knows whether I can just buy a modified lens or is if I actually have to own one myself

[@ValJedi]

how do you frame for 2.35:1 aspect ratio on sony? the monitor only desqeezes it, does it have custom zooming or custom crop mark options?

[@MSSTUDIO]

Thanks for review 😊

[@Lalambz]

knowledge is power! thats awesome!

[@janhemstad]

Sweet results! Do you think it would be sharper if you used a focusing helicoid and left both lenses at infinity? I supposed you couldn't mount everything on rails then, though. You'd have to leave the camera loose or the lens assembly, which would prohibitively heavy.

[@Babsdoproductions]

The SLR Magic Rangefinder would be the kind of thing for this if it fits that particular lens. It would definitely add some heft to the front of the lens which already is on the heavier side. However, more than likely you would use this for more cinematic filming and not handheld stuff.

[@merodack3721]

What does it means “doble focus”?

[@csabalandi]

MIke Mikels When using an anamorphic projector lens you have two lens in front of your camera. Double focusing means that the two lenses aren’t connected optically so you have to manually focus both of them separately every time.

[@MoonSafariFilms]

You have to focus the anamorphic lens and taking lens separately.

[@PVCLime]

One big disadvantage is that you can't do wide shots. Are those 58mm lenses on fullframe or APS-C? Is that the limit?

[@MSSTUDIO]

Full frame

[@PVCLime]

@@MSSTUDIO Ok! I might try to modify mine. I can only do 50mm on APS-C. Thanks for the reply. :)

[@reeseparquette7506]

Am I able to use these methods on the Isco KA298 anamorphic projector lens?

[@antontaranenko8824]

Hi Mathieu;) I found one ISCO Superstar for sale in Japan and want to buy one for modification;) Is this modification, with closing up front and back lenses together fixes double focus problem? Or you still have yo focus separately anamorphic and receiving lens parts? There are also reviews that ISCO lenses do not give much of anamorphic flares due to good coatings?

[@MathieuStern]

you will still need to double focus even after mod, and yes, no flares at all

[@antontaranenko8824]

@@MathieuStern Well, I probably will skip on ISCO than. Just keep on watching on my huge LOMO 35NAP2-3M which I got for free and thought that maybe there is some smaller option, with single focusing. Probably no luck than, and I will destined to challenge myself with LOMO USSR beast, some time in the future.

[@felixwurm1467]

Really nice concept and great video!

[@BroScro]

Broscro Is it only good with full-frame or could an APSC sensor work with it fine too

[@vaidehiarts]

APS-C would be easier, in some ways, since you will be not be using the full reach of the lens. However double focusing is a nightmare. I'd suggest you look at something like the Sirui anamorphic lenses if you want something simpler to handle (1.33x though, not 1.5x or 2x)

[@antontaranenko8824]

Again those fancy Cristal glasses like in Hexanon 57mm f1.2 video;) I will probably try to buy some as well 😉

[@MathieuStern]

You should!

[@RSpudieD]

Cool!! I like the gold-like look of it too!

[@madedigital]

FE...MAP IM WITH YOU

[@GuardianFilmworks]

Great video!

[@MathieuStern]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@MisterWealth]

Sucks you still need a taking lens

[@hunterjacksonmedia]

Flat earth map! Awesome.
