Anamorphics questions
A friend dropped off an immaculate 85mm F2 Cinelux-Ultra projection lens.
(An anamorphic lens.) Before I get into hacking a mount to a 35mm camera, I must ask: can I use the same lens for taking and projection (enlarger)? |

Before I get into hacking a mount to a 35mm camera, I must ask: can I use the same lens for taking and projection (enlarger)? Its not going to work well as either a camera lens or an enlarging lens. For one thing as a projection lens it has no diaphragm which will cause problems with both applications. I think you can use it both ways by turning it 90 degrees. Its certainly worth experimenting with but don't expect too much from it. Also note that its probably made for Cinemascope frames, essentially half normal 35mm still frames (slightly larger) so it may have coverage problems for 35mm still frames. -- --- Richard Knoppow Los Angeles, CA, USA |
