THX

Thanks Andy,Ken

After your explanation i now understand that both lenses (front and back) are anamorphic lenses.
The realignment is no problem at all cause there are screw markings on both bodys.
What i don't understand is why that guy told me that i won't need the back part of the lens.
Are there anamorphic taking lenses...what was his point? I don't get it.
Thank U!

Isco Ultra Star CA HD lens Disassembling

Hi,

I bought a
Isco Ultra Star Ananmorphic Attachment HD Lens
see foto.

It got delivered in two parts:
- Front Anamorph
- Back  Lens
- including screws

Before i bought the lens the seller told me that i wouldn't need the back lens for the anamorphic effect, just the front and a taking lens.
Saidly, I can't reach the seller anymore.

Question:
How do i use the anamorphic lens in front of my taking lens (Nikkor ai 1.4 50mm).
I also bought a lens clamp.
THe problem i have is that no matter what i do i can't get a sharp image through both lenses.

Combination of anamorph front + back lens + taking lens gives me a sharp image
but gives me a lot of vignetting and makes it pretty heavy.

The back lens part measures 7.8cm.
leaving an empty space of 7,8cm between ana and talking lens does not help.

Camera in use nikon d300 crop factor 1.5

any help much appreciated
