Modern professional cinema cameras offer large sensors capable of directly capturing images in the cinematic 2.35:1 and 2.66:1 formats using spherical lenses. However, filmmakers often crave the distinctive anamorphic "look," leading them to resort to rare vintage lenses. These vintage lenses come with practical challenges including size, weight, availability, limited close focus capabilities, and high costs. To address these issues, we set out to innovate with the SLR Magic Anamorphic lens.

SLR Magic 1.33x - 65
Anamorphic Adapter
The SLR Magic Anamorphot-65 1.33x Anamorphic Adapter is renowned for its compactness and compatibility with lenses featuring a front element size of up to 65mm in diameter. This adapter, with a 1.33x anamorphic transformation, boasts an 82mm rear thread size and an internal focus design. With a minimum close focus distance of four feet, it supports the use of 112mm threaded filters and diopters for added creative control.
Specifically optimized for the Fujinon MK zoom range, the Anamorphot-65 1.33x Anamorphic Adapter is also suitable for 82mm-threaded SLR Magic MicroPrime lenses. In contrast to the cropped "anamorphic" image achieved with a spherical lens, this adapter maximizes the utilization of your camera sensor's full area, offering a true anamorphic experience.
​
ensuring a wide range of lens compatibility for enhanced creative flexibility. When coupled with full-frame sensors, it is recommended to match the Anamorphot-65 1.33x with lenses having a focal length of 50mm or longer, ideal for maximizing the anamorphic effect and image quality on these lenses.
​
For S35 sensors, a focal length of 35mm or longer is suggested when using the Anamorphot-65 1.33x to achieve optimal results tailored to this sensor size. Similarly, for Micro Four Thirds sensors, lenses with a focal length of 20mm or longer are recommended to ensure compatibility and the desired anamorphic output for this specific sensor format.
