In addition to the ease of supporting multiple delivery aspects, the Mercury Series 1.5x optical design allows for many of the visual characteristics image-makers love about the traditional 2x cinemascope format (oblong oval bokeh, barrel distortion, shallow depth of field) while also allowing for a meaningful size and weight reduction in the overall physical product design. This results in an ideal balance of compact size, weight, optical performance, and professional-focused usability across a variety of productions.

Mercury goes wherever your stories take you
Our talented team of designers and engineers examined the needs of cinematographers around the world to create a new line of anamorphic lenses meant to be used on any set, in any rig configuration - whether on land, sea, or air: from the largest production, to solo operator run-and-gun, aerials, underwater, or anywhere in between.

With full-frame coverage, a 1.5x squeeze ratio with enhanced bokeh, a dynamic geometric optical personality and warm vintage tones, and exceptional optical performance -- all at half the size and weight of most pro-anamorphic lenses.
