SMC Pentax-A 50mm F2 Cine Mod Lens w/ Anamorphic Bokeh For Canon EF | As Is
$ 159.99
The SMC Pentax-A 50mm F2 Cine Mod Lens is a professionally modified vintage
prime, adapted for Canon EF-mount cameras and upgraded for modern cinematography. Originally designed as a compact and reliable still-photography lens, this lens has been transformed into a cine-ready tool that combines the charm of vintage optics with modifications tailored to the needs of filmmakers. This cine-modded version is equipped with two 0.8 pitch follow focus gears, one for aperture and one for focus, ensuring smooth, precise adjustments with any standard follow focus system. The aperture has been de-clicked, enabling continuous and silent exposure transitions during filming. An 80mm outer diameter cine hood is included, making the lens compatible with matte boxes and professional filmmaking accessories. The most unique feature is the neutral oval bokeh modification. By reshaping the aperture, the lens produces cinematic oval-shaped bokeh that emulates the look of true anamorphic glass. This gives your footage a wide-screen cinematic character without the need for expensive anamorphic lenses or de-squeezing footage. Simply add 2.35:1 black bars in post-production, and you’ll achieve a dramatic widescreen look with smooth, elongated background blur. The lens has been professionally serviced: disassembled, cleaned, re-lubricated, and carefully adjusted for optimal performance. The original fungus was completely removed. However, the cleaning process revealed a faint stain on the front glass, a cosmetic imperfection left from the previous fungus. In practical tests, this stain had no visible impact on image quality — sharpness, contrast, and color rendering remain intact. Because of this imperfection, the lens is being offered AS IS, with no returns or refunds.
