Who knows this anamorphic lens?
  • I found this in a little shop here in my country where sometimes I find interesting things for little money. He asks me about U$14, but above the price I want to know if I can take advantage on M4/3 or a waste of time.

    Also the optical has a small stroke about an eighth of an inch over the glass. Unfortunately the photos a little kick fast and the front is out of focus.

  • Take it with eyes closed! Eiki anamorphic is very good, like Sankor/Singer...

  • @yiannis_zach, thanks.

    I guess it works with certain diameters, not with any lens, any ideas?

  • @Manu4Vendetta : Anamorphic lenses giving better results when used with fixed lenses. You will need an anamorphic clamp (like this: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331260737121) so to be able to attach it to your normal lenses. For some of your lenses you will need a step-up or step-down rings (they are very cheap on ebay, ~$1.50). On your M4/3 you will need lenses from 45mm & above, so to use with this Eiki.
