As a creator, you're faced with tough choices when it comes to your masterpiece. However, when asking yourself 'How do I make this story look great on the screen?' that's where an anamorphic lens is pretty badass. But how do they differ from normal lenses? Let’s show you! _______________________ In the following video, you will find different comparison footage of Anamorphic lenses vs. Spherical Lenses. Anamorphic lens shots: Nikkor 50mm f/1.4 AI Kowa 8z Rapido FVD-16A Spherical Lens shots: Sigma Art 18-35mm f/1.8 Camera Body: Blackmagic Ursa Mini Pro G1 To make the best possible comparison footage we have looked at 3 main types of shots; 1. Distortion and Focus (Shot in daylight in a forest) 2. Distortion and Width (Shot in the city center of Aarhus, Denmark during daylight) 3. Flares and Lights (Shot in low light during the evening) Spherical lenses have less glass for light to pass through and simpler mechanics. They tend to produce sharper images with minimal distortion across the entire picture. The anamorphic lens, however, is often identified by its reduced sharpness, increased distortion, and falloff – this is where the closer we get to the edges of the image, the more distortion, and softness we get. It also produces far more dramatic lens flares; this is because of the extra glass inside the body. Interested in trying out anamorphic lenses or camera equipment?
