Get closer!

Limitations due to the specific optical design mean that the focus distance of popular anamorphic lenses can sometimes be longer than those of traditional lenses.

The Nanomorph 27 mm T2.8 1.5X S35 Silver for Arri PL / Canon EF needs only 43 cm to catch focus. Larger close-ups mean less depth of field and even more beautiful bokeh!
