The Helios looks fantastic Tito. I wish you'd take some quick video of it with a 1.5x and 2x to see what kind of look you can get with it and a real anamorphic. Anyway, thanks for the vid.

I think Rich has a bunch of clips using the FlareFactory and the Century 1.33, which is kind of what you're looking for! Flynn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you get to it, great. That footage from the Helios is really inspiring. If you were to combine that with a 1.5x I bet it would give a 2x feeling. Anyway, keep the Chop Shop vids coming! Glad I found your channel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bzpop Posted November 9, 2015 Share Posted November 9, 2015 it's impossible to buy EF version from that guy, it's been "sold out" for the last couple months, and to pay double for PL + adapter not worth the hassle; Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flaaandeeers Posted December 7, 2015 Share Posted December 7, 2015 Hello Tito and everyone.Looking for a budget prime around 50/58mm lens to "match" my SLR Magic 35mm T1.4. when pairing it with Moller 32/2x and SLR Magic Rangefinder.Due to local availability and price I've narrowed the options to: Helios 44-2 58mm f2 and Nikon E 50mm 1.8. Which of those do you think that would match the SLR Magic 35mm better?I have a FD 55 1.2 that I love and use for spherical shots around that focal length, but since the front element is very big, there is major risk of scratching it when attaching the anamorphic. That's why I'm looking for a cheaper and smaller front element option.Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which of those do you think that would match the SLR Magic 35mm better?I have never used the SLR Magic lens before so I don't know if its image tends towards the cleaner side or the artifact side, and that's what's gonna make the decision for you. One can't go wrong with the Helios 44, it's so simple and cheap and with so many tests out there that you know exactly what to expect out of it. I suppose the Nikon goes along the cleaner side, since it's more modern and has more/better coatings. So you need to evaluate how clean is SLR Magic's image and flares and go with it!

RickMcC Posted February 11, 2016 Share Posted February 11, 2016 Tito, just wanted to say thanks for work. It's been a holy book for me when looking which lens to buy next. I'd like to get your thoughts on the Isco Widescreen 2000MC. Had mine for a good few months now and it appears to be quite temperamental, I struggle to get a decent focus out of it with various lengths and dioptres, especially the SLR range finder... Not sure if I have a compromised version... I'm sure it's nothing to do with my focusing ability... I hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamesDrum Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Dang, your videos and articles are super helpful. I have been searching for a budget solution to single focus on my cheap anamorphic rig, and I find myself on your site/youtube channel finding answers. Thank you!

Flynn Posted August 9, 2016 Share Posted August 9, 2016 Sucks that you sold off a number of prized lenses to pay for it Tito but glad it didn't end up worse than that. Thanks for letting people know about this scam. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the info again! I got a few of them by the end of the tutorial. Not sure if they're enough to satisfy your craving. hahaha https://youtu.be/h_pyRS6vzdU?t=3m12s 7 hours ago, Flynn said: Sucks that you sold off a number of prized lenses to pay for it Tito but glad it didn't end up worse than that. Thanks for letting people know about this scam. Yeah, on the bright side, it forced me to think about the lenses I think are really worth keeping, and the ones I was just collecting - which would be a waste of money and space, in my case.
