Sirui Astra T1.8 1.33x Full Frame Autofocus Anamorphic Cine Lenses 100mm – Professional Image Composition with Autofocus

Sirui Astra 100 mm T1.8 is a groundbreaking anamorphic cine lens that introduces autofocus in full-frame film production. This lens combines a constant compression of 1.33x with a bright aperture of T1.8, making it an excellent choice for both professional and independent filmmakers. With its ability to create a wide horizontal perspective and remarkable background blur, the Astra 100 mm is perfect for close-ups and intimate dialogue scenes.

Anamorphic Image Composition and Flare Character

The constant 1.33x compression allows for a wider image view compared to spherical lenses with the same focal length. When the film is decompressed during post-production, it achieves a widescreen character of approximately 2.35:1 from a 16:9 recording. This lens also offers the characteristic elongated bokeh and depth associated with anamorphic optics, giving your films a unique visual style.

Autofocus and Practical Filmmaking Management

The fast aperture of T1.8 allows for controlled background blur and filming in scenes with existing light. The lens is equipped with an STM-driven autofocus system and an AF/MF switch, making it convenient for independent productions. Additionally, film-oriented focus and aperture controls provide more precise handling when needed, making it ideal for both beginners and experienced filmmakers. The blue flare version of the lens is specifically designed for L-Mount and has a minimum focusing distance of 0.70 m, enhancing its versatility.
