Looking to build an anamorphic 1.33x for Fuji

[DanielVranic]

Hey everyone. 

 

Looking to take my XT3 experience to another level and go 1.33x Anamorphic. I currently use the 16-55mm 2.8 and 35mm f2 and I have NO idea where to start.

Can someone help me along in this process?

The obvious and widely available option with those lenses would be the SLR Magic Anamorphot-50 1.33x. On the 35mm you could probably also get away with the SLR Magic Compact Anamorphot-40. Beware of the heavy blue flaring. Sharpness gets nice from F4 and up. Vintage (more pricey, rare) options would include LA7200 and Century WS-13. Check out Tito Ferradans' Youtube reviews for all the aforementioned.

Current high-end option would be the Letus Anamorphx http://www.letus35.com/letus-anamorphx-pro-1-3x-adapter/

Man that Letus looks awesome.

Question. I keep getting confused by this. the 35mm has a 43mm thread and the 16-55 has a 77mm thread.

From what I gathered, those SLR Magic wont fit?

You should be fine using step rings I guess?

If you want to blow a bunch of money on something really nice you could try to find an Isco optic 16:9
