silvertonesx24 Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I know the Helios 58mm is a very popular one for anamorphic shooting, I was just wondering if anyone had any recommendations in the 100mm+ range for anamorphic lenses that vignette.

Julian Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 Which anamorphic, which camera? I have a Minolta MD 100mm f/2.5 that works pretty well on my Kowa B&H + GH2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
silvertonesx24 Posted June 9, 2013 Author Share Posted June 9, 2013 Should have stated- full frame. Anamorphic- a variety of 2x lenses. I'm pretty well covered with the 58mm Helios, just would like something longer for the B+H anamorphic which vignettes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bioskop.Inc Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 If you like the Helios, then Tair 11a 135mm f2.8 (preset aperture with 20 blades) - awesome lens. Jupiter 9 85mm f2 is nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dahlfors Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I've been really happy about the results with my two Nikkor AI-S lenses: 85mm f/2 & 105mm f/2.5. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tito Ferradans Posted June 9, 2013 Share Posted June 9, 2013 I would suggest the ones Bioskop mentioned. They're great with any anamorphics. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulio Posted June 10, 2013 Share Posted June 10, 2013 yes I use the Tair 11a 135mm f2.8 with my kowa. Combined with x-tele and tokina 0.4 achromat you can get some almost macro looking stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brucker Posted June 11, 2013 Share Posted June 11, 2013 stay away from the contax zeiss 135,.. its workable but barely so. jupiter 9 is lovely :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
