richg101 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 This is a quick test showing flaring of every 50mm (or 'normal' focal length) I have in my arsenal, and in stock at the moment, some have been supplied to me for optical work. I'm not going to go an list each lens in order, but upload this to illustrate how much variation there is between 50mm lenses despite being almost all consisting of 6 elements in 4 groups, or double gauss designs. Though anamorphic lenses are often seen as flare makers I think some of the results here are magical enough to warrant pairing them with anamorphics which don;t have particualy exciting flaring like an MC 'Rama 54, or a cinelux and an FM- just for the defocus and aspect ration alone. with some of these flares from the prime alone, why add more!

Rudolf Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 That was a festival of light.... The weirdest 50mm I own is an old Yashica 1.8 in m42 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redimp Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 What are the ones at 02:06 and 11:20? Amazing flares! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
