Bokeh Experiments: I’ve started experimenting with modifying certain optical elements to throw the bokeh way out of wack. Some interesting results thus far… will post more results soon.

I had some pristine uncoated lenses converted for use on my EPIC. I finally had a chance to test this one out …. an UNCOATED PREWAR XENON SCHNEIDER 50mm f2 (MINT). I am really happy with the look this lens renders so far. Uncoated flares, low contrast… SHARP yet creamy, Vintage style bokeh. Currently looking for a 35 to complete a small set. I have an 80mm on the way, I hope its in as good condition as this little 50mm… fingers crossed.
Images on FLICKR as well

An unscientific evaluation of the Lomo Anamorphic (Square Front) Lenses. These lenses were produced in Russia from 1970-1980.
-Images and Footage shot on my RED EPIC X
-5K anamorphic mode in RED COLOR2+RED GAMMA2 (UNGRADED TEST)
35mm T2.8, 50mm T2.4 and 80mm T2.5 in OCT19 mount


35mm @ T2.8 FLICKR LINK
- The smallest of the bunch, flares wide open as well as stopped down. A mastery of optical engineering a thing a beauty.

35mm @ T11 FLICKR LINK

50mm @ T2.4 FLICKR LINK
- Flares nicely wide open and less so when stopped down. These are heavier then their more modern round front counter parts, but still manageable hand held.


80mm @ T2.4 with a +1 DIOPTER FLICKR LINK
