---------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today I want to look at the line of the anamorphic lenses from Sirui and show you a short film I shot entirely using these lenses. I recently reviewed the latest release from Sirui which was their 24mm lens and I’ve gotten a lot of questions regarding which of the Sirui lenses is the best. Or which lens I should get, the 24mm or the 35mm or 50mm? Well I think if you want to shoot in anamorphic you will need all 3 lenses and perhaps more. Sirui’s lineup of these 3 anamorphic lenses means that finally we can shoot a whole project with real anamorphic optics on a low budget and using various mirrorless cameras. Like I mentioned in the reviews of each of these lenses, they are all small and light which means that when working on smaller productions where time and crew is limited, you’ll be able to move faster. Since the lenses and the cameras you can use are smaller, it means you don’t need big support gear such as tripods or gimbals. Also since these work on lots of different mirrorless cameras it means that they are now accessible to a lot more indie filmmakers who don’t own a cinema camera with a PL mount. Most mainstream anamorphic lenses are big, heavy and therefore require a sturdy mount like PL. Also most anamorphic lenses are very expensive and hard to find. In the end these 3 lenses will allow you to go from a wide angle shot to a medium and medium close up. Of course as Sirui keeps on releasing more lenses, the coverage will allow us to go even tighter or maybe even wider but like I said before, I already find that these 3 lenses cover the most important focal lengths. If you follow the link in the description to the short film I shot with these 3 lenses you will see that all the lenses match up nicely in terms of the color rendition and anamorphic artifacts they create.
