SIRUI Astra T1.8 1.33x Full Frame Autofocus Anamorphic Cine Lenses 50mm_Blue Flare Sony E - Excellent for Film Production
SIRUI Astra 50 mm T1.8 is a groundbreaking anamorphic cine lens that introduces autofocus in film production for full frame. This lens combines a constant compression of 1.33x with a bright cinema aperture, making it ideal for both professional and independent filmmakers. With its ability to capture dialogues, documentary scenes, and natural compositions, this Sony E version is a fantastic asset for filmmakers.
Anamorphic Image Composition and Flare Character
The constant compression of 1.33x allows for a wider horizontal perspective than what is offered by spherical lenses of the same focal length. When the material is decompressed during post-production, it achieves a widescreen character of approximately 2.35:1 from a 16:9 recording. This provides an outstanding elongated bokeh and the visual depth that is typical of anamorphic optics, which truly enhances the aesthetic quality of the film.
Autofocus and Practical Film Handling
With an aperture of T1.8, this lens is particularly useful for scenes with background blur and when using available light. It is equipped with an STM-driven autofocus system and an AF/MF switch, making it practical for independent productions. Film-oriented focus and aperture controls allow for precise handling when needed, making it an excellent choice for both beginners and experienced filmmakers. The blue flare version of the lens is specifically designed for the Sony E mount and has a minimum focusing distance of 0.50 m.
