Hayk Posted December 4, 2018 Share Posted December 4, 2018 Hi to All, Please advice me, which lens to use with SLR Magic Anamorphot 50mm 1.33x adapter with rangefinder , on 2 different FF cameras like Canon 5D Mark IV & Sony A7III. I've heard a lot of suggestions for Mark IV that the best lenses are canon's pancake 40mm lens f/2.8, Helios 44-2 & etc... I am new here, and never worked with anamorphic adapters, so if someone will explain me i will be very thankful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kazkioken Posted December 14, 2018 Share Posted December 14, 2018 I had the original 1.33X (the big one) and on my Sony A7S (+2) it worked well with pretty much any 50mm I threw it on. I had to close down though to at least f2.8 or f4 to get any workable sharpness. Great adapter for easy of use. I shot mostly with a DSO which is a Helios 44-2 and worked perfectly Tim McC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayk Posted December 24, 2018 Author Share Posted December 24, 2018 I have tested it with helios 44-2, but the quality of the image was not sharp as i wished it to be, what do you think is it possible that helios 44-4 lens image would be sharper ? I have ordered canon 40mm pancake lens soon will test on it too! Besides that testing with canon ef 50mm f/1.8 lens i got vignetting.
