Thanks to a new anamorphic design, the new Patent-Pending lenses keep the advantages from spherical ones with the great anamorphic look.(Watch the short film "Walk in Barcelona"). Small size and weight: You can handle them like spherical, and use standard matt boxes and filters. Virtually no distortion or breathing: No need for tricks while shooting: no need to avoid columns or corners, or move the camera while focusing. High aperture with quality: No need to stop down the lens or extra ilumination. No change of compression for close positions: Close focus similar to spherical lenses, without the "fat faces" effect. Price similar to spherical lenses TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS Covers up to ANSI super 35 Silent (31.14 mm de diameter). Same frontal diameter over the entire. Compatible with film and digital cameras. Feet and meter focus scales that can be exchanged. Internal focus to keep the external position of the lens constant. PL Mount. Telecentric design. Floating elements for a good close-up perfomance. Multiaspheric design High optical perfomance: High resolution and contrast. Uniform quality over the whole field of view. Minimized breathing and distorsion. Consistent optical perfomance across the whole focus range. Download Brochure here. | Website is here.

I am pleased to inform you that Angénieux has just introduced this morning @ IBC show (Amsterdam) a new anamorphic zoom lens to complete its Optimo anamorphic line. This line is now composed by the Optimo anamorphic 56-152mm and the Optimo anamorphic 30-72mm. Based on the optical design of the 2012 SOC and 2009 Academy of Motion Picture award winning Optimo 28-76mm and 15-40mm zoom lenses, the optical design of the Optimo Anamorphic lenses weaves in cylindrical and spherical optical elements in the rear group. This unique design technique yields significantly superior optical performance (exceptional sharpness and lower distortion) over the lenses on the market that are simply equipped with rear anamorphic attachment. Additionally, the design allows the zoom lens to remain extremely light weight. The two characteristics of Optimo Anamorphic allow the user to achieve a new level of performance and freedom of movement while shooting in anamorphic format and have no equivalent on the market. They are the first true handheld anamorphic zoom lenses with the best weight, size, aperture and performance ratio. Both lenses are available for purchase in India. First deliveries of the Optimo Anamorphic 30-72 are planned by mid-2015 on a first-come first-served basis. Place your order at the earliest to get it first! If you plan to visit IBC show (Sept 12th – 16th), please feel free to visit our booth (11-F34)! Also, please note that these lenses will be at Cinec show (Munich, from Sept 21st to 23rd) and at Broadcast India show.
