For degree film: Proskar 16- B version OR Isco Blue Ultra Star 2x

[Greenhappy]

I have reached the conclusion that the PROSKAR tier adapters are a bit too soft. A KOWA 16s is in my sight. Anyone have any experience or observations for it? It seems a bit rarer than other models. It is also more expensive than the Isco Blue Ultra Star 2x

Just go with the Isco Ultrastar and Vid Atlantic front and rear clamps if you want the best quality/price ratio
You just won't get anamorphic flares (but you can force them by using a cheap ND filter on the front) and it will be dual focus (but most of the times, you can get around it with some time and patience)

PS : don't pay more than $200 for an Ultrastar at it is the usual "low" price for it.

Yes, I am starting to lean heavily on the Ultra-star, as overall it seems more practical as an adapter can get in terms of results for a sharp and usable image for projects other than experimentation and playing around.

Also what clamp size would i need, 72 mm ?

I have 58 on the Back (actually 60 but comes with a 60-58mm step-up if I remember correctly) and 72mm on the front
