Sirui 50mm f1.8 Anamorphic

Sirui anamorphic 50mm | 50-millimeter Sirui target

The Sirui 50mm f/1.8 anamorphic 1.33x lens is designed for APS-C cameras and increases horizontal FOV by 33% compared to traditional 50mm APS-C lenses. The result is equivalent to a wider 37.5mm APS-C lens. After removing compression, the captured image is displayed in a 2.4:1 anamorphic format in a 16:9 configuration. This fast f/1.8 lens is designed with an aluminum housing and features multilayer Nano coating optics. It has renowned Schott optical glass lens elements and offers rectangular aspect ratios, long horizontal lens flares and oval bokeh.

One of the features of this lens is that it produces horizontal blue streaks with less stray light, what Sirui called sci-fi horizontal flares. A key aspect of anamorphic lenses is highlighted oval bokeh, and this lens achieves shallow depth of field and oval bokeh with its 10 aperture blades. While the lens has a sturdy housing, it's also designed to be lightweight for use with your APS-C compact camera.
