Sirui 35mm and 100mm T2.9 1.6x Anamorphic Lens Kit with 1.25x Adapter for Sony E

Under the banner of high-quality and professional-grade optics, Adorama presents the Sirui 35mm & 100mm T2.9 1.6x Anamorphic Lens Kit with a 1.25x Adapter for Sony E-mount cameras. This innovative and versatile kit is designed to elevate your photography and videography to cinematic heights, offering a durable solution for creatives seeking to capture expansive wide-angle scenes and intimate telephoto shots with artistic flair.

The 35mm anamorphic lens boasts a wide field of view equivalent to a 22mm lens on a full-frame sensor, making it an ideal choice for architectural, landscape, and interior photography where space is at a premium. Its ability to include more elements in the frame without compromising on quality is a testament to its innovative design.

On the other end of the spectrum, the 100mm lens excels in producing a shallow depth of field with a strong background compression, creating stunning oval bokeh and a distinct focus fall-off that is perfect for portrait, sports, wedding, and wildlife photography. This lens's telephoto reach allows for precise subject isolation, adding a layer of depth and emotion to your images.

Both lenses feature a full-frame anamorphic design with a high 1.6x squeeze factor, which is increasingly sought after in high-end productions for its prominent anamorphic characteristics. The lenses offer two aspect ratios: a cinematic 2.4:1 when shooting in 3:2, and an even wider 2.8:1 on a 16:9 sensor, providing flexibility in post-production cropping.

The cinematic look is further enhanced by the ability to create striking blue lens flares when hit with a light source. The 1.6x squeeze ratio elongates the background bokeh, while the T2.9 aperture of the 100mm lens ensures that your subject stands out with an artistic aesthetic.

Uniform barrel construction across the kit ensures ease of use, with a consistent T2.9 to T16 aperture range, identical gear position for follow-focus systems, an 82mm filter thread for adding creative filters, and a 1/4" threaded hole for mounting options. Both lenses feature metric and imperial scales for precise focusing and are compact in design, with the lightest lens weighing only 930g (2lbs), ensuring portability and ease of handling.

The included 1.25x Anamorphic Adapter is a game-changer, offering a budget-friendly solution to transform spherical lenses into anamorphic or to increase the squeeze ratio of existing anamorphic lenses. This adapter is reminiscent of classic anamorphic lenses like those from Panavision, providing a 25% increase in the horizontal field of view and the ability to achieve a 2x squeeze when paired with the 1.6x anamorphic lenses.

Compatibility is key, and the 1.25x adapter's 82mm rear thread comes with step-down and step-up rings to fit a wide range of popular lenses. Its compact and portable design, measuring only 46.5mm in length and weighing 650g, makes it an unobtrusive addition to your gear bag. The adapter also features a front single focus mechanism, allowing you to set the base lens to infinity and focus solely with the adapter, maintaining a constant 1.25x squeeze ratio at all focusing distances and eliminating distortion.

Whether you're shooting with professional digital cameras that use 4:3 sensors or aiming for a universal 16:9 aspect ratio for modern commercials and TVCs, this lens kit and adapter combo provides the flexibility and quality demanded by today's content creators. With the ability to produce a 20:9 aspect ratio, your videos will play seamlessly in full screen on smartphones, ensuring your work is displayed as intended.

Elevate your visual storytelling with the Sirui 35mm & 100mm T2.9 1.6x Anamorphic Lens Kit with 1.25x Adapter for Sony E, a high-quality, professional, durable, versatile, and innovative solution for filmmakers and photographers alike.
