The Sirui IronStar T1.9 1.5x Anamorphic Cine Lens Set (35mm, 45mm, and 60mm, available in PL and EF mounts) delivers true full-frame anamorphic performance with constant 1.5x squeeze, cinematic bokeh, and exceptional sharpness. Designed for professional filmmakers, these lenses combine technical precision with a timeless cinematic aesthetic, bringing authentic widescreen storytelling to your production.
With a 1.5x constant squeeze, the IronStar lenses provide a natural 2.25:1 aspect ratio in 3:2 mode or 2.66:1 in 16:9 mode—ideal for true anamorphic visuals. Compared to 1.33x lenses, the 1.5x design delivers wider framing, stronger background compression, and beautiful oval bokeh that amplifies cinematic depth.
The ultra-fast T1.9 aperture ensures outstanding performance in low light while achieving a smooth and creamy background separation. Vertical bokeh transitions gently while subjects remain sharp, adding dimension and visual emotion to every scene.
The IronStar series offers two flare aesthetics. The Classic Blue Flare enhances sci-fi, action, and urban looks with a stylized cinematic touch. The Neutral Flare retains natural light rendition, ideal for humanistic and emotional storytelling.
Each focal length features unique optical structures with ED, Aspherical, HRI, and Cylindrical lenses for minimal distortion, high resolution, and pleasing vintage tonality. Near-zero focus breathing ensures consistent framing and focus transitions for professional production environments.
Covering a full-frame 46mm image circle, the IronStar lenses deliver clean, wide imagery without vignetting or cropping. Each lens includes both PL and EF mounts with a dedicated toolkit, allowing quick mount swaps. The innovative back-focus adjustment design lets users fine-tune flange depth with precision—no disassembly or shims required.
All lenses share a consistent design with identical gear positions, 270° focus throw, dual markings (imperial/metric), and Φ95mm front diameter for standard matte box use. The metallic housing, 1/4" base thread, and unified color tone make them ideal for multi-camera setups and quick lens swaps on set.
