Expanding Anamorphic Coverage
This set complements Set A, providing essential standard to telephoto focal lengths (55mm, 80mm, 135mm). This extended range is crucial for diverse cinematic storytelling, allowing for more options in subject isolation and framing.
Embracing the Classic Anamorphic Look
This set delivers all the beloved attributes of anamorphic: beautiful oval bokeh, distinct blue streak flares, subtle barrel distortion (anamorphic mumps), and a wider, immersive cinematic feel. Utilise these characteristics to imbue your footage with a unique, stylised aesthetic.
Maximising Sensor Usage with 2x Squeeze
The true 2x squeeze ratio maximises sensor usage, providing a wider, more pronounced anamorphic look when de-squeezed in post-production. Ensure your post-production workflow is set up to de-squeeze the footage correctly to realise the full anamorphic potential.
Optimised for Super 35mm
While some lenses in the set can cover larger formats, they are optimally designed for Super 35mm sensors, which are common for many popular cinema cameras. If shooting on larger formats, always test coverage thoroughly to ensure desired results.
Consistent Cine Mechanics
Despite being a newer design, these lenses feature robust, repeatable cine mechanics with industry-standard geared focus and iris rings. This ensures seamless integration with cine accessories like follow focus systems and lens motors.
Incorporating Characterful Flares
The Atlas Orions are known for their distinct blue horizontal streaking flares. Use this to your advantage by composing shots where light strategically hits the front element, adding a desirable vintage cinematic aesthetic and visual interest.
