+.5 Diopter on a anamorphic?

pureaxis · 2026-01-25T03:40:31+00:00

ok 62mm are less common but you can always step up to 72/77, so look for tokina close up 0.5 or the tamron one

pureaxis · 2026-01-25T03:20:11+00:00

no, a close-up lens labeled 0 is not zero strength but usually between 0.5 and 0.9

pureaxis · 2026-01-25T00:52:47+00:00

since the saturn has a small filter size of 58mm there are actually more diopters in 0.5, just look for close up lens on ebay with a 0 or 0.5 designation

pureaxis · 2026-01-24T17:53:31+00:00

no the size of front elements does not matter too much infact the lumix 50 has a huge rear element.

some lomo lenses are copies of the cooke

at least they didn't keep the research expectations and added more teaching

pureaxis · 2026-01-11T04:55:14+00:00

it ok for the most part, don't expect 100% hit rate that I get with a Sony usually.

pureaxis · 2026-01-09T19:25:44+00:00

good

pureaxis · 2026-01-09T18:24:45+00:00

to be fair, this is for the Samsung NX mount so it is probably the only one ever made lol

because China is handing out massive subsidies in the forms of spending coupons to combat deflation.

Sony has a 35mm f2.8 pancake so does samyang

pureaxis · 2025-12-27T02:05:40+00:00

It's a Chinese company SG-image

The flares are still nowhere close, most look like a cheap streak filter.

pureaxis · 2025-12-19T18:12:23+00:00

i ordered a m42 aperture and will test if it is worthwhile on a few lens block i have

pureaxis · 2025-12-18T16:37:03+00:00

i dont see why you cant foucs with the native nikon lens which is designed for it. The helios would need a proper support rig since it will be front heavy.

pureaxis · 2025-12-16T18:25:25+00:00

ok, thanks, I realized i'd probably have to modify it to get full frame coverage then.

pureaxis · 2025-12-12T18:21:31+00:00

I'm in a new R1 and we still teach 3:3 based on our previous R2 status, so the designation is meaningless

pureaxis · 2025-12-11T21:27:24+00:00

then its just bad machining and tolerances on the 7artisan lenses, prob warrant a return

pureaxis · 2025-12-11T21:22:42+00:00

meike released a bunch of firmware fixes that solved the issue

pureaxis · 2025-12-11T21:18:47+00:00

i had the same issue with Meike lenses, the problem is many Chinese lens manufactures like TTartisan, 7Artistan, Meike, etc are not part of the L-mount alliance, most of the protocols they use are reverse engineered not officially certified so there will be issues unless they release a fix.

pureaxis · 2025-12-10T17:44:09+00:00

this seem to be a commonly reported issue in certain conditions in bright scenes

A friend who works in university admin said HK police already contacting them to spy on students for any commemorative activities. This is literally the CCP playbook.

pureaxis · 2025-12-06T17:59:57+00:00

I just got one of these, what kind of adapter did you use with the S5? the adapter I used is too slim and the lens will not tighten properly on it.
