I'm curious to know what the LS-300 sensor coverage would be using the new SLR Magic 2x 50mm CINE anamorphic MFT lens. Unlike the PL Mount lens which start around $6K, the MFT lens are $2.6K for the 35mm and $3K for the 50mm and 70mm in the US. The PL lens are intended for S35 and FF sensors (35mm and 50mm/70mm respectively) whereas the MFT are for S16 and 4/3rds sensors (again 35mm and 50mm/70mm respectively).
Just wonder what the aspect ratio of the 50mm MFT anamorphic used on the LS-300 would be when de-squeezed. If it's anywhere near 2:35:1, I'd love to see JVC add a de-squeeze internal option for the internal screen. While certainly not inexpensive, the SLR MFT anamorphic lenses are not untouchable and I'm hoping the LS-300 might be an affordable option for shooting with a native anamorphic lens.
Interested in any thoughts on this... or a possible test
