    Lomo foton A and La7200

    In: Cameras

    Posted

    I don't know if it's possible, but my LOMO should arrive in the following weeks and I do have a Panny around. I'll do the test.

     

    Just in case, I believe it will work well on the 37-50mm range, and need a close up for anything longer.

    Anamorphic Lens-yclopedia.

    I think this "Anamorphic directory" must have a first pinned topic that only consists of a big table that contains the basic info we filled out but in one combined table. Just so that people could compare the anamorphics very easily and then when they are interested in one specific lens they can go into the lens' own topic.

     

    I'm not so sure about everything in one topic, since if you need to update a particular lens, you'll have to do it twice: on its own topic and in the main topic mess. I think the one pinned thread must be the index, with links to all others. That way, anyone can open two or more different tabs with the specific lenses and compare them without much scrolling. :D

     

    The first post of EVERY lens will be the standard table.

     

    I think it would be better to state the minimum focal length to achieve a 2.35:1 aspect ratio without vignetting/light fall off. This method uses a common parameter which takes account of all the various compression ratios otherwise its like comparing apples and pears

     

    Excellent. If optics are still determined by math, dividing the focal length required to cover full frame by 1.51 or 1.13 should do the trick for 2x and 1.5x stretches, respectively. I'll confirm this with testing and update the lenses we have already. :)

    Yeah! That was kind of what I had in mind at the beginning, just didn't know already existed somewhere! Never been a big fan of Personal-View, more than once I've seen a thread go off-topic into some stupid argument between two or more members. :(

     

    How do we do that? I guess talking to Andrew is necessary, right? hahaha

    There's definitely something wrong with your account JohnBarlow! I just tried to send you a message and there is no such option available!

     

    Anyway, if you can go to the folder containing the files (link below), feel free to create copies of any file and modify it according to the lenses you know/have available. Can you do that? If you can't find your way around google docs, just list here the ones you can write about, and I'll create their files for you. :)

    From yesterday to now, I've added about 15 lenses, as detailed as I could. In the list view, all the files that have stars beside their name are complete. In the preview, the ones with pictures are complete.

     

    There are MANY lenses that don't have their files yet, but it's growing fast, I think. Please, ask other anamorphic shooters to collaborate. :P

    I've sent PMs to many users (I think everyone in this thread has received one) asking them to fill the lens sheets.

    I'll fill all the ones I've already had.

     

    Please, take a little time for this, since I believe can be very useful to everybody! :)

    Lomo Squarefront Anamorphic with Canon dSLR (mirror removed)?

    In: Cameras

    Posted

    It's not anamorphic, but this guy managed to make an OCT-19 work with a 60D... I haven't found any more reports of that being accomplished (except for very specific lenses with a very specific adapter).

    I made some research too (contacting the guys behind cinemods and ciecio7 adapters, as well as some brazilian tech support) and the results are NOT promising. They all told me that even if I get the mirror removed, there still will be a HUGE ammount of PL lenses that won't fit. The best way to know which will or wont is measure the back of it, with PL mount already, and try to do the math.

     

    Also, it does not cover full frame. Their ideal sensor is APS-C, or a cropped version of full frame (now possible thanks to MagicLantern's RAW Hack). I'm waiting for my 37-140 + Foton-A and already know it won't cover full frame from talking to other guys who have it and tested with a 5D.

    Oook, I managed to test some stuff at google docs and it might come in handy. I'm thinking about a folder with lots of files, and an index to point the all.

    Would be safe to assume that everyone who replied here so far is interested in helping? Could you PM me with your emails, so I can allow you all to edit the files? (this can be open to EVERYONE too, but I think it would be a bit risky, since I haven't found the subversion control yet.)
