I have that lens. The size is crazy small. I have been using it on a gimbal for video, I will do a walkaround photo shoot with it to see. I have to admit I never thought of doing it until I was this video. One thing to note with the these lenses is they have made me rethink my other lens choices. The contrast is much greater than my Rokinon lenses and so I now want a wideish lens for other parts of my video that match the characteristics and also a 24mm version of this lens.

Shooting a marriage with a anamorphic lens and a cinematic filmstock LUT can turn the photos in a personal movie for the couple. It is worth to offer it to couple who is going to marry. This lens made a great job for city and street. I think it is good for wide landscapes as welll 1: 2.39 aspect ratio is freshing up still photography.

just a question since you have experience in anamorphic and 'normal' lenses i guess you the best person to ask ive never used an anamorphic lens before but i love the look so ive mimicked the anamorphic look by cropping my video or adding black bars (letter box) to it and I also have this lens filter with stripes across it to give me that 'anamorphic flare' so my question is from that point is it worth 'for me' to buy an actual anamorphic lens or should i just keep doing what am doing and its close enough and call it a day mind you i shoot weddings and you how it is and the turn around needs to be ASAP and all that so what do you advise me ?
@SourPlanet
Жыл бұрын
I'm gonna have to pick one up. I currently crop to cinemascope and just shoot with a slightly wider lens than needed for what I'm up to. It's a pale imitation, but the vibe does often carry over. That said, this video pretty much convinced me to switch over to anamorphic. I've been waiting for the right lens to pull the trigger.. and I think it finally arrived. Sirui just launched the new version of this lens and it looks awesome. It's also like $200 cheaper. Your street shots around Japan are very similar to how I shoot around Manhattan. That's the other thing that convinced me-- finally someone who's posting shots like I actually make! For the barrel fix... another option is the Warp Tool in Photoshop. Not the fancy version, but rather the old school one found under Edit > Transform > Warp. It's tied to a grid and warps are done by editing the individual nodes in the grid. Holding Shift while moving grid nodes also keeps them locked to strict vertical only (or horizontal only) moves. So you can just grab the nodes found along the left and right borders of the image- but only the grids in the center of the frame edge. Drag them out horizontally away from center and it should just fix the issue straight up. Also easy to do as an action. Anyway. Thanks for the video. From me, not from my bank account. My bank account is kinda mad at you :P

Great video, Magic! I’ve been looking to make anamorphic stills for years and tried some of the earlier Sirui offerings. This new full frame lens looks awesome! I’ve also been looking at the Venus Optics mirrorless anamorphic lenses as well! They are super 35 but apparently still fit on full frame fields of view with minimal vignetting and are very compact (more like a stills lens size) and they also have interchangeable lens mounts. They also offer different flare color types of orange, blue or silver. I’ve been eying those lenses myself as a new anamorphic photo kit! Check it out if you get a chance!

PS. the main issues remaining.. I will have to learn manual focusing again .. and: how can I control the kind of irregular distortion with the 35 mil? the distortion is so "mixed" top down and left right, that the standard tool of PS elements does not seem to manage it in a satisfying manner..

I wonder how sharp these anamorphic lenses are in general. Cropping in post has the advantage of having lossless keystone correction (just level the camera and move the crop up or down).
