dahlfors Posted December 8, 2014 Share Posted December 8, 2014 Tito: Since you've been away, check the anamorphic forum for the "FM Lens module" as well, I think you might find it interesting, especially on the subject of "anamorphic on a budget". Interesting to see your contributions here again :) Tito Ferradans and Cosimo murgolo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dahlfors Posted January 7, 2015 Share Posted January 7, 2015 Damn. That was some serious damage on the front of that Iscorama 54! I wouldn't have had any hope for salvation of such a lens.

Rudolf Posted January 12, 2015 Share Posted January 12, 2015 Thank you very much for your effort. Very intresting read and enjoyed it a lot.I tried to write a comment and some additions but that did not work for some reason. Second try: Maybe Ernst Abbe deserves a mention as founder of the patented anamorphic lenssystem. (He also invented the triplet later called "Cooke triplet") Therefor it is maybe a little bit harsh to say Isco have stolen a russian formular. Isco Göttingen were already in the anamorphic business since the late 1950's. Isco Göttingens concept with the Iscorrama being able to split depends on the fact that the anamorphot has to be used for projetction (was not a discovery by users). Therefore the Iscostat was used (available for all sizes). The Iscorama 36, 42, 54 were targeted at the Super-8 enthusiast. They had also cooperations with Bauer and Beaulieu resulting in the Cingegon (taking lens was a Schneider Kreuznach Macro Cinegon 10mm 1.8). Isco Göttingen put a big effort to make their lenses popular: In 1979 they offered a journey to Israel accompanied by anamorphic experts and lending out Iscoramas to the interested film enthusiast. Unfortunately all this did not prevent Isco from breakup.Maybe the Isco's achromatic diopters especially built for the Iscoramas are worth mentioning too ?Again thank you very much for your work!!! Very inspiring. I wish I could afford more stuff like Lomos and 5D III (I am still on GH3 and mostly Super 8)Tonight I am looking forward to wathch Zona S. SP.
