Letus Anamorphic for Gopro
  • This will sell at $199, and sell alot of gopros in the process. I'd guess that we can assume that Letus did their homework , and the v4 will have the same case.

  • Pretty cool though I hope there is a way to attach it without the case for use on a Zenmuse gimbal.

    Also a bit disappointed with Letus in general right now for the way the Anamorphx big version has been rolled out, really not enough footage out there to make an informed decision about purchasing it, and seeing a lot of worrying results from what was supposed to be great, but I guess that's a different topic...

  • in the small print below where it says in the corners for 1080p I'm not sure if they mean it's helped correct the barrel distortion but there still is some or it's the same as ever just stretched, will be interesting to see the footage would be nice if it corrected it although I suspect if that were possible it would be sold like that. Also says it will work for the 3 and 3+ but needs the 3+ case

    *Note: The Letus AnamorphX-GP will help correct the heavily distorted images in SuperView mode that is caused by the dynamic stretch. However, the fisheye effect caused by the use of GoPro's wide lens will remain uncorrected. This holds true with 1080p shooting as well. The lens of the GoPro itself will still produce barrel distortion in the corners even with the AnamorphX-GP.

  • @stonebat Ewww that lens distortion is horrible one of the main reasons i sold all my gopro's!

  • I'm wondering if some enterprising souls will adapt this to some other fixed lens cameras ?
