If you followed this sub-forum closely, you'd notice that there are a few threads with 'Aivascope 1.5x Pro'.

I'd say it's rather good.
Very handy and easy to setup.

I'm quite happy of the result this 3rd music video of Esteban Luc gives, with Aivascope 1.5x anamorphic, especially the 2nd part, where the sun was there. Tell me what you think
GH4 (UHD and slowmo FHD) + Pentax speedbooster + Pentax-m 40mm f2.8 + Aivascope Pro 1.5x anamorphic lens + ND filter

AIVASCOPE 1.5x on Helios 44-m 58mm f2 @ full aperture on Lumix S1H
I had a two hours time having in my hands the Lumix S1H in a workshop organized by Panajou Photograph shop in Bordeaux.
This was shot in full frame 4k 24p 8bits then 10 bits 150 mpbs (after the desolve @3'48'') -my sd card didn't want the 400mbps-
Unfortunately my old Premiere didn't liked the 10bits, I had to transcode it.

THE LAKES (AIVASCOPE 1.5x anamorphic lens with Canon FD 35mm f2 paired with Speedbooster)
 
this is my fourth film test with the new Aivascope 1.5x anamorphic lens on my Panasonic GH4, paired with Canon FD 35mm f2 and Metabones Speedbooster.
 
 
The Aivascope anamorphic 1.5x lens is a very sharp lens working great with some of my primes. It’s a single focus lens (you do the focus on it and let the prime on infinity). The speed booster gave sharper, faster and wider shots paired with the prime Canon FD 35mm f2.
If my calculation is good it gives a (35mm X 2,34) : (1,5x) X 0,71x) = 38mm (in the width) « 35mm equivalent » with 1.8 aperture
In this 4th movie you will see different shots done with (Canon aperture from wide open f2 to f4) : 
GH4 4K uhd (no CC) 24p + Aivascope 1.5x anamorphic lens with Canon FD 35mm f2 on Metabones Speedbooster
I’ve used a Starblitz variable ND lens, on the GH4 the picture mode is on « portrait » with slight ajustments.
I did no color corrections at all.
Thanks for watching.
Heres is the characteristics of the Aivascope 1.5x lens :
Designed for Full Frame systems. Recommended taking lenses for full frame (16:9 aspect ratio) from 50mm to 90mm Single focus From 80cm to infinity. Non rotating front element. Focus ring rotate 190 degrees. Lens mounting clamp 52mm Filter size 82mm Weight 700 gr. Integrated focus gear.
Price : 2 250,00 €

Full Frame AIVASCOPE 1.5X single focus anamorphic lens on Sony A7S II + Panasonic S1
I have the (quick) opportunity to film on full frame such as Sony A7S II and Panasonic S1 with the new AIVASCOPE 1.5X single focus anamorphic lens.
It’s the first time I’m filming with A7S II, sorry for the overexposed shots. With this experience with the A7S II, I think I prefer the GH4 -it’s video codec rendering and it’s viewfinder-
I just have a few time and a very few lenses.
The 40mm is maybe too wide and vignetting with the Avaiscope, especially on close focus, also because of the ND filter. It’s better to film with it from 50mm. Some of the shots had been slightly cropped.
The M42 Vivitar 135mm was just used here to show more the anamorphic bokeh.
The Pentax-dfa 100mm f2.8 is also not really adapted, it was quite hard to focus with it, but the background is more out of focus.
The Panasonic Lumix S Pro 50 mm f/1.4 is really not adapted it’s vignetting, due to its depth and maybe it’s filter large thread (77mm). We will see when there will be adapters for the Panasonic S1, to provide shorter vintage lenses.
The Panasonic Lumix S 24-105mm at 70mm at f/4.0 is obviously not adapted (the last four shots), anyway its a zoom, not surprising…
When I will have another access to the A7SII with better adapted primes I will do a much more proper test.
Thanks for watching.
Comments are appreciate.

AIVASCOPE 1.5x anamorphic lens, 2nd hands-on GH4
after this two tests :
vimeo.com/341289409
vimeo.com/342429735
this is my third film test with the new Aivascope 1.5x anamorphic lens on my Panasonic GH4.
It’s a very sharp lens working great with some of my primes. It’s a single focus lens (you do the focus on it and let the prime on infinity)
In this 3rd movie you will see different shots done with (aperture wide open) : 
GH4 4K uhd (no CC) 24p + Aivascope 1.5x anamorphic lens
Primes : Pentax-m 40mm pancake f2.8 at f2.8
(most of the time) Pentax-m 40mm + 2x vintage Telemore95 II at f2.8
Sicor-XL MC 28mm f2.8 at f2.8 Despite the fact the Pentax-m 40mm is less wider than the others, I like the result with it. The TELEMORE95 II 2x lens converter (bought 3€ on a flea market) does missed sharpness to the 40mm from Pentax (and the Aivascope), and I loose maybe 2 stops with it.
I’ve used a Dorr variable ND lens, on the GH4 the picture mode is on « portrait » with slight ajustments.
I did no color corrections at all.
Thanks for watching.
