Hi I am under a tight deadline, I have a client with a small budget who wants to shoot a project in Anamorphic. The only option I can find at the moment is a company on ebay that sells the ISCO MINI 2X ANAMORPHIC LENS with appropriate adapters. (I will be shooting on a Sony a7s probably with an old helios 85 mm take-up lens) Does anyone in the community have, or heard of anyone with any experience using these? Any feedbcak would be much appreciated. Cheers.

Hi
I have just brought an Isco Red Mini with a rangefinder and Superscope Adapter (AnamorphicStore USA) its a lovely thing and I’m very happy but I can’t help feeling if I could find someone who could service the lens (aka as Tito F did in his Kowa B&H Video) then I could get it even sharper. Does anyone have any experience in dismantling/servicing one of these lenses or even better recommend someone or a business who could? (I don’t think my eyes are good enough for the job)
Two quick questions, I am currently using a 100mm cannon as a taking lens, could I also use a 135mm if I wanted to push in or is it better to use a diopter?
Finally I’m currently using it with a SonyA7s which, when I use it with the Focus assist, even if viewing it on my SmallHd 701 monitor - the enlarged image is so blurry I find it contributes little to helping me confirm focus?
Any recommendations or techniques, using the above setup, on how I might improve confirming the focus?
Thanks
