ISCO MINI 2X ANAMORPHIC LENS

[kwhitenoise]

Hi I am under a tight deadline, I have a client with a small budget who wants to shoot a project in Anamorphic. The only option I can find at the moment is a company on ebay that sells the ISCO MINI 2X ANAMORPHIC LENS with appropriate adapters. (I will be shooting on a Sony a7s probably with an old helios 85 mm take-up lens) Does anyone in the community have, or heard of anyone with any experience using these? Any feedbcak would be much appreciated. Cheers.

There is no such thing as "ISCO MINI 2X ANAMORPHIC". It sounds similar to the way that certain ebay seller is calling lots of his lens. Probably it's just an ultra-star, overpriced as hell. Double-focus for sure.

is the lens golden? Does it have red gears attached?
