Julian Posted April 13, 2015 Share Posted April 13, 2015 Drool... I don't even want to know the price though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBounce Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Looks great. Need something like this in m43 or e-mount. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Looks great. Need something like this in m43 or e-mount.How about EF mount, so we can put it on a speed booster on M43 I'd also like Image Stabilisation, half the weight (this monster is 2KG...) and a maximum price of $3000...

Geoff CB Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Drool... I don't even want to know the price though. If it's the 2.8 Leica, I'm betting more than $25,000.Edit: nevermind, f4, so probably around 10 grand if we're lucky :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rook Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Looks interesting, I'm sure the price is out of my reach to own which means when I need to rent I'll rent primes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jed I. Clampett Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 To me the issue is price given that it looks good, where is China when you need them? Julian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
premini Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 A lame interview and a lame video herehttp://nofilmschool.com/2015/04/need-anamorphic-lenses-your-169-sensor-ps-technik-has-you-covered Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
premini Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Looks interesting, I'm sure the price is out of my reach to own which means when I need to rent I'll rent primes...Exactly my thoughts, this guy says that their target audience is people that cant afford Cookes and Arris (i.e. 99% of the people) Basically we rent this kind of high end anamorphics right?So unless they come up with a 3-5k lens i don't see the point of buying it when you can rent a better quality lens. rook 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hans Punk Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 Surprised to see a fair bit of CA on the high contrast edges on a modern lens...image looks very boring IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richg101 Posted April 15, 2015 Share Posted April 15, 2015 i'd sooner shoot spherical and crop than this. no anamorphic aesthetic what so ever. not only that, but the anamorphic section appears to be delivering rather nasty degradations onto the image. cropping a decent 2x image and losing sensor resolution is better than feeding the entire sensor with a crap image.Yet another lens designed and manufactured without any care being taken to understand the reason why people want to shoot anamorphic.

silvertonesx24 Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 To me the issue is price given that it looks good, where is China when you need them? The Chinese, for whatever reason, are very poor at copying optics. I don't know why.Yet another lens designed and manufactured without any care being taken to understand the reason why people want to shoot anamorphic. This covers pretty much any of the recent pop ups out there. And who wants to shoot anamorphic, indoors, at f/8? What a useless test Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Caldwell Posted April 16, 2015 Share Posted April 16, 2015 1.45x squeeze is an interesting choice given that they are aiming for 16x9 sensors. Almost identical to the old Iscorama, and will still require significant cropping to get from the resulting 2.6:1 down to 2.4:1 .Also interesting is the 2-meter minimum focus. Perhaps they will be developing a large diameter diopter as an accessory? andy lee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
