Sirui 35mm T2.9 1.6x Anamorphic Lens with 1.25x Adapter for Canon RF

Make your photography and videography more dynamic and visually stunning with the Sirui 35mm T2.9 1.6x Anamorphic Lens, designed specifically for Canon RF. This lens offers a wide field of view equivalent to a full-frame 22mm lens, making it an excellent choice for capturing expansive landscapes, architectural marvels, and confined spaces.

The lens set includes four commonly used focal lengths, providing versatility for shooting projects from various angles and perspectives. The full-frame anamorphic lens provides a 1.6x wider horizontal field of view, making it ideal for high-end productions that require prominent anamorphic characteristics.

When shooting in 3:2, this lens offers a 2.4:1 aspect ratio, while a 16:9 sensor results in a wider 2.8:1 aspect ratio. This flexibility allows for creative cropping in post-production. The 1.6x squeeze, a popular feature in many modern monitors and cameras, enhances the cinematic look by stretching the background and creating taller, skinnier bokeh.

The lens features a uniform barrel construction with a T2.9 to T16 aperture range, identical gear position, 82mm filter thread, and both metric and imperial scales. Despite its robust features, it remains compact and lightweight at just 930g/2lbs, making it a more portable option than similar products.

The Sirui 35mm T2.9 1.6x Anamorphic Lens is available in RF, L, E, and Z-mount, ensuring compatibility with professional cinema cameras and popular full-frame mirrorless cameras.

The package also includes a 1.25x Anamorphic Adapter, designed to transform any spherical lens into an anamorphic or increase the squeeze ratio of anamorphic lenses. This adapter is a cost-effective solution for achieving the classic 1.25x squeeze, a feature popular in renowned anamorphic lenses like Panavision.

The adapter can be used with the 1.6x anamorphic lens to achieve a 2x squeeze, resulting in thinner bokeh and a shallower depth of field. This feature allows for more information to be included in the frame, providing additional flexibility for reframing in post-production.

The 1.25x adapter is compatible with an 82mm rear thread and includes three step-down rings (67mm, 72mm, 77mm) and a step-up ring (92mm) to fit a wide range of popular lenses. Despite its capabilities, the adapter remains compact and portable, measuring only 46.5mm in length and weighing 650g.

The adapter also features a front single focus, allowing you to set the base lens at infinity and use only the adapter to focus. This maintains a constant 1.25x squeeze ratio at all focusing points, eliminating the "anamorphic mumps" effect on your subjects.

In summary, the Sirui 35mm T2.9 1.6x Anamorphic Lens with 1.25x Adapter for Canon RF is a comprehensive solution for photographers and videographers seeking to enhance their work with anamorphic characteristics.
