@Alex Taylor search for DIY anamorphic filter, there are lots of videos with cardboard and fishing line. You basically create an oval cover and glue a fishing line across the lens.
Just want to correct you because your title is misleading, it's "Anamorfake." You're not getting a lot of the stylistic effects that traditionally come with anamorphic adapters so you're misleading people who might be new to the game. Hope that helps, love your channel! You're very good at what you do!
Lyndon Alvarez the cool thing (in my opinion) about anamorphic is the squeeze and wide angle dof you can achieve. The flares are the least important and can be faked anyway.
As far as I know, this kind of adapter only simulates the anamorphic bokeh and flares. However I haven't been able to find a lot of information about it. Do you by any chance know what exactly are the differences in the image properties of real desqueezed anamorphic and a spherical lens with an equivalent focal lenght coupled with this adapter and cropped to an anamorphic aspect ratio?
Yup yup but I don't think your answer is entirely correct as far as imitating goes. Pretty much it's a stylistic choice and most people who notice are way too into filming to begin with (such as myself lol). Uwirlbaretsidma you might want to search tito ferrandans on UA-cam if you want to learn about anamorphic adapters. His page is what brought me up to speed in regards to understanding the basics ;)
yes, Anamorphic lenses are way wider, this adapter only gets you the flare and look. There are some optical adapters for lenses that give the wide look which your camera should have Anamorphic Mode for it. I still cant find an optical one for the Sigma
The lens flairs in your test aren’t balanced horizontally. They “lean” to the right. As in the right side of the flair is lower than the left. Like a seesaw where the heavier person is on the right. Can you rotate this to fix it?
Also, $35 is insane for this 3d print. You could do it for free with cardboard, an exacto knife, a black sharpie and a piece of fishing line, or even a hair..
Armando Ferreira lol if you ever searched cheap anamorphic this would be one of the first thing that pops up, and plus filmriot already made a video about these
Prank Smart if I took your advice I'd shut my channel down. Clearly nothing is original and speaking with the company they sold a ton which leads me to believe a lot of people haven't heard about it (just read the comments). So glad I was able to help and inspire others with dope gear.
You can do the same by attaching a Fishing Thread to the front of the lens and it gives the same effect..! I do that the whole time and it costs just about 50cents...!
Attaching a thread only gives you the horizontal lens flare but doesn't give you the oval Bokeh that anamorphic lenses are known for. Also I like being able to just keep it on my lens and knowing it can't get damaged so that alone is worth the extra $34.50.
OMG!!!!! What is the aspect ratio that you shoot this video??? I’m watching on a iPhone XS Max and this video almost fill the entire screen!!! I didn’t need to “pinch” to cover the screen. Maybe 98% of the screen was already cover. Man!! Love it!!! More videos with this aspect ratio please!!!
This is what i was looking for...I have the sigma 18-35 and i love the lens,this one would drive it to a whole new level..Any filters for the sigma 50-100?
Damn, I got really excited but this has been a thing for ages and doesn't give you the real character an anamorphic lens would give you. You can make the slit out of cardboard and the fishing line you can have on your front element and color with a sharpie. Still the best budget way to get actual stretchy anamorphic is with the anamorphot adapter. Film Riot did a video on it years ago and even they were late to the party on it.
Yeah but the it's not really anamorphic because there is no optical squeeze during the filming. I get that the $35 adapter mimics anamorphic flares onto the video but it does not mimic the true anamorphic look because this requires the image being captured in a squeezed format for a wider aspect ratio. The classic anamorphic look is a 2x squeeze but with digital super-35 sensors, 1.3x anamorphic lenses have been released to maintain the 2.35:1 ratio. Hope you can clarify this with your viewers in the future. Perhaps you can also explain why you get these type of lens flares with anamorphic lenses.
How much light do you lose from the smaller aperture? Plenty of wide shots in your footage but nothing close focused at 35mm that would show any bokeh. Would have been interesting to see if the geometry of the bokeh had vertically elongated ovals matching the 2X stretch factor you get with true anamorphic. I just picked up a Kowa B&H 2X anamorphic, now if my Rectilux single focus diopter would just show up in the mail....
Hi Jordan, the CineMorph bokeh mimics the look of anamorphic lens with a strength of about 1.75x. For the back mounted version seen in the video above it mimics the looks of 1.33x or 1.5x anamorphic lens. It's a subtler look but allows for less light loss that way while still stylizing clinical looking lenses. Light loss varies with every combination (sensor, optic size, aperture speed) but it's usually just 1 stop or so of light loss.
Great idea! Question... Will this adapter work on the lens with a Metabones Speedbooster? I have this Sigma lens and am waiting on a BMPCC4K and am considering combining their usage? And also any problems of vignetting?
I've don't have a speedbooster so I can't answer that question, although I don't see why It wouldn't? You'll get a little bit more vignetting especially in 18-24mm but it's not terrible.
Very nice does this work with a Canon lens I've been looking that moment lens make some for smartphones but I wish there can be for a camera lens for Canon?
Hi Armando, I wanted to ask you how you upload a video on youtube with a wide area so when you put the cinema you don't have a crop, look really nice. Nice video and the adaptor look amazing. Great videos I subscribe and tell my friends about your channel. From Chile South America.
...wish you would've spent more(some) time on the less intrusive alternative. the one you put on front... can you give us exactly what it is and where to get it?(gonna look for after sending this)... thank you...
If all it does is give me the lens flair effect I’d rather do that in post over opening up screws in my lens. Plus I can rotate those lens flairs if they are done in post if they are off balance (like they are here). So hard pass on this product but thank you for posting this video about them!
Cool video dude wonder if I can find one for my canon lenses. Also like how you get people/businesses to sponsor your videos, currently I sponsor my own lol.
Probably should work... but you better find some old glass. They have all sorts of optical deffects that create the effect :). You need distortion, aberations, softness, flares, halo, ... if you are manual focusing - no problemo. BTW my Sony FE 28 2.0 is pretty close but I can't turn off the lens corrections in the camera. It can be quite good with its wild distortion and soft edges. Also when you crop 2,35:1 helps a lot to get the look ;). I made some anamorphic filters by myself using a cutting plotter in a local advertizing agancy and it was really cheap to cut them from black cardboard in various filter sizes. They tend to ruin the AF performance sometimes but the look...
You did notice that your flares were not horizontal and ran downhill to the right, correct? I think you should have used more care when slotting it in to you lens. It looked like there was plenty of slot left to make the adjustment. Use a flashlight and a grid overlay on your camera during setup because once you start shooting there is no way to correct it in post. This technique only mimics flares and oval bokeh and is very old, not a new thing. If anyone is interested in Anamorphic Shooting on a Budget check out the UA-cam channel by that name hosted by Tito Ferradans. Lots of great info on how to get real anamorphic done and many ways to anamorfake it when you need to also.
Some IMPORTANT DETAILS: This is NOT AN ADPATER it is only a filter. You need to be carefull when using it, some cameras or speedboosters may get scratched when using it. The filter steps down the image for more than 1 Stop. On some cameras you can see the fishing line in the bokeh. It does NOT SQUEEZE YOUR IMAGE.
Does anybody else remember when the widely accepted way to do this was with some spray painted cardboard and a piece of fishing line?
😂 Yup!
@Alex Taylor search for DIY anamorphic filter, there are lots of videos with cardboard and fishing line. You basically create an oval cover and glue a fishing line across the lens.
That's rather what's known as an anamorphic "filter". Not an anamorphic adapter - there's sort of a big difference.
Yeah but $35 adapter gets more clicks 🙄
Yeah this is such an important point.
Michael Willer that's what their website states don't be mad at me

The flare appears slightly crooked, no?
Yeah, title's a bit misleading. That's an anamorphic *look* *filter* or *insert* . An amorphic adapter is optical.
Technically it's all optical.
yes, Anamorphic lenses are way wider, this adapter only gets you the flare and look. There are some optical adapters for lenses that give the wide look which your camera should have Anamorphic Mode for it. I still cant find an optical one for the Sigma
This is AMAZING! It def fakes that anamorphic lens look 100%, all u go t to do is fake now your aspect ratio and DONE! Yaaaaaaaaaaay... Loved it.
The lens flairs in your test aren’t balanced horizontally. They “lean” to the right. As in the right side of the flair is lower than the left. Like a seesaw where the heavier person is on the right. Can you rotate this to fix it?
Yes, the filter has enough wiggle room to be straigthen.
Or even a cheaper solution: wipe your iPhone lens vertically with your oily finger. :)
Thank you for sharing experiences dear Armando !!!
Jesus look at the clarity of those night shots.
Love that thing! It's such a dope piece of kit for $35. Also, the video turned out great :)
Yo man I met you at VidSummit! It was nice to meet you! Keep the best content coming!!!!
👊🏼
great video bro thanks to you I've been stepping up my production
Awesome man!
Love it! The set it and forget it of this adapter is what really sells it for me. I’ll have to put that on my Christmas wishlist!
Ayyy my boy Josh rules! Such a rad hack. Thanks for posting!
A sick effect with no post work ❤️❤️🤩
Also, $35 is insane for this 3d print. You could do it for free with cardboard, an exacto knife, a black sharpie and a piece of fishing line, or even a hair..

Damn son! That b-roll is 🔥🔥🔥! Awesome video bro.
Thanks fam! Appreciate you stopping by.
rip that filter that was sideways lol I would recommend turning it a little bit so your flare streak is horizontal. Great video!
Lights and LUT are sick
Very cool! Always helpful to have those fun things to help make a video look even better! 👍🏻
Indeed, thanks for stopping by.
Neat, I gotta try it! As always thanks for the tips Armando 👊🤠
Awesome effect with little money!! Always a plus! Also, thanks for the links!! A+++++
Why is it tilt to the right side? did you line it up right?

@@mondobytes Thanks for the info..! 😁
That lens flare is beautiful!
hi,
I just came across your video while researching cheap anamorphic yes anamorfake lenses for full frame.
I have Lumix s5 I can't find the adapter
Can this filter be applied not into video but also into photography?
I really like your light system. Compared with others your videos stand out. Can you tell what system did you use? Thanks
OMG!!!!! What is the aspect ratio that you shoot this video??? I’m watching on a iPhone XS Max and this video almost fill the entire screen!!! I didn’t need to “pinch” to cover the screen. Maybe 98% of the screen was already cover. Man!! Love it!!! More videos with this aspect ratio please!!!
All my videos on the last 6 months have been uploaded like this. It's 2:1 aspect ratio.
Armando Ferreira amazing man!! Thank you.
Two sets of varied thickness fishing line optically taped to the back of the lens will produce something closer to the real deal.
What's the difference between putting it in the back vs the front?
B-Roll Clean AF!!!
i can’t see the difference sigma 18-35 and sigma 17-70 mounts. Will it work on sigma 17-70 if it works on 18-35?
I wonder if there is one for the Sigma 35mm for E mount
Don't know how I missed this one. Gotta say I love the new look in the studio. Lights off looks great.
You can easily add these in postoro The main benefit of anamorphic lens is their wide angle not flares...
That's awesome man! Thanks for sharing.
Likewise thanks for watching!
I support you so much man. Keep it going.
is the modifier would fit on a cheaper lens like the 35 mm youngnou lens?
This is what i was looking for...I have the sigma 18-35 and i love the lens,this one would drive it to a whole new level..Any filters for the sigma 50-100?
I mean. The flares were there but it didn't look cinematic at all. But I guess if it's more about the flare effect then hey go for it.

Yo my man cool vid, i have a sony a7 with this lens 28-70 mm f/3.5-5.6 Zoom Lens....will they fit on this lens?
Such a GREAT video!! Loved this one man!!
👊
can i use with sigma 18-35 1.8 with nikon mount?
Is reducing the apperture? For the lens
Can do photography while keeping it on? Will my pictures be cropped?
Nice! Looks amazing!
Important question
Do you lose light? (Sigma + Vid)
There is a one stop loss
How much light do you lose from the smaller aperture? Plenty of wide shots in your footage but nothing close focused at 35mm that would show any bokeh. Would have been interesting to see if the geometry of the bokeh had vertically elongated ovals matching the 2X stretch factor you get with true anamorphic.

I've don't have a speedbooster so I can't answer that question, although I don't see why It wouldn't? You'll get a little bit more vignetting especially in 18-24mm but it's not terrible.
Would this effect still work if i use an adapter to mount my 18-35mm on my sony?
Does that affect the autofocus ?
What panasonic lens would that filter fit on ?
Love the way you present mate
Appreciate that!
Very nice does this work with a Canon lens I've been looking that moment lens make some for smartphones but I wish there can be for a camera lens for Canon?
what kinda corol fiter did you use/buy
Hey Bro, how's the vignetting with this CineMorph Mod Filter for Sigma 18-35mm f/1.8 lens? Is there much at 18mm?
Depends on your camera. On my C200 there's alot but on my A7III in Super35 there's barely any.
For $35, definitely not a bad buy! But you must be very careful when you install it to the camera.
Hi Armando, I wanted to ask you how you upload a video on youtube with a wide area so when you put the cinema you don't have a crop, look really nice.

I’m using this on a sigma Art 50-100mm f1.8 and getting some vignetting, anyone else noticing this? Did I just install it wrong? Thanks!
Why TF is this ONLY for Canon? I hate it when they do this. Crazy how cheap it is though! Thanks for shouting this out!

I want to ask there's anamorphic lens for Ef mont !?
Why does the lights look crooked?
I have gh5 and this lens with adapter... It is work?
Offf this is dope as!!
so is a 2 streak filter for the rear of the lens?
Do a video on what all the accessories on a camera are
Does it work with the Sigma Art 1.4 35mm?
Is there any light loss/decrease in image quality? It looks like it's restricting the opening.
No loss in quality, I'm sure there's some minor light that is being lost.
If all it does is give me the lens flair effect I’d rather do that in post over opening up screws in my lens. Plus I can rotate those lens flairs if they are done in post if they are off balance (like they are here). So hard pass on this product but thank you for posting this video about them!
found you through potato jet!! Keep up the good work!
Tim Ngai thanks!!
Is this only for the Sigma 18-35 ?
Also works with other Sigma & Zeiss Distagon (Canon mount) lenses
What do you think of the bokeh. Are they oval. Wish you shoot with s wide aperture to show it
Cool video dude wonder if I can find one for my canon lenses. Also like how you get people/businesses to sponsor your videos, currently I sponsor my own lol.
Definitely cool but honestly it doesn't really look that much like anamorphic. There's more to anamorphic than just the horizontal flare.
The problem with this sigma is that it is way too clinical. You need more optical defects to get the look. Also barel distortion helps a lot :)
Time to spread some Vaseline on the lens LOL!
Probably should work... but you better find some old glass. They have all sorts of optical deffects that create the effect :).
