I've used it with great success with Iscorama 54, Kowa for B&H & Isco Widescreen 2000. Grimor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Justin Bacle Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 You can have nice 35mm f/2.8 lenses in M42 mount. Search for one with a small front glass, which is better for anamorphic adapters. Some of them are dirt cheap like this one. http://allphotolenses.com/lenses/item/c_3368.html I am using an unbranded one (35mm f/2.8 made in japan) which does wonders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Timotheus Posted July 3, 2017 Share Posted July 3, 2017 @PhilipV I'm somewhat confused as you ask for a 35mm, but then the widest possible. So do you mean 35mm focal length or a wide lens used in analog 35mm photography? If we're talking 35mm focal length, I can also recommend @Bioskop.Inc's Mir 24N (nice flares also). Furthermore check Super Takumar 35mm/F3.5 (compact and sharp), or the 35mm/F2 (more expensive and longer). For 35mm/F2.8 there are many, many options. Well known are Carl Zeiss Jena Flektogon and the Mir-1 (which is actually 37mm). Grimor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
