The 3rd Edition of the ALUM anamorphic adapter is here!
This version comes in with a brand new optical design utilising higher index glass and full multicoating. The general layout is still the same, it’s a two piece design with a front negative lens, and a rear positive lens, but the adapter as a whole is now almost 30% shorter than it was previously, bringing the size down to just over 3cm!
The Alum is an experimental anamorphic adapter. It comes with 39,43,46 and 49mm filters which you can swap out with the help of a screwdriver. The adapter screws into your taking lens, just like a filter would, and sits right on top.
This lens works best, and is optimised for lenses of 35mm focal length on full-frame (35mm format) or smaller. This means it should work very well on Fuji X100 cameras.
The 3rd edition is optimised for infinity focus, and is a fixed (also sometimes called ‘focus through’) adapter, this means it will be at its sharpest at infinity, and astigmatism will increase as you focus closer.
When purchasing the adapter you will also receive the .step files in the confirmation under a GNU GPL license. Your are then free to use the files as you wish, to make different casings, mounting adapter options and so on. You can share them with your friends, and share the changes you make.
Size : 54×54×31mm
Weight : TBD ~200-250g
