Shooting with the ISCOspherical Lenses ISCOrama Anamorphic Adapter
This is a genuinely rare booking: a set of vintage ISCOspherical T2.4 A+ primes with amber coatings, paired with an ISCOrama 1.5x anamorphic adapter. Only around forty of these sets exist, and it is rental-house-only glass. The amber coating gives a warmth that is very hard to reproduce in a grade, and the anamorphic adapter adds genuine optical stretch — oval bokeh, horizontal flares, the real thing rather than a crop.
Anamorphic adapters need care in focus and framing. If you have not shot with one before, talk to our rental agents and we will walk you through it before the shoot rather than on the day.
ISCOspherical Lenses ISCOrama Anamorphic Adapter Rental FAQs
What does the ISCOrama adapter actually do?
It optically squeezes the image, giving you a wider aspect ratio with the oval bokeh and horizontal flares that define the anamorphic look. That is genuine optical character, not a post effect.
Why is this set rare?
Only about forty complete sets exist worldwide, and it is not available to buy retail. If you want this particular look, renting is realistically the only route.
