Anamorphic video test by Seb Farges.
LisboAnamorphic in CinemascopE from Seb Farges on Vimeo.
Our friend Seb Farges posted another nice video using the GH2 with the tiny Berthiot anamorphic 2X lens and the C-mount Fujian 35mm f/1.7 lens. Well done Seb! Also Andre Reid from EosHD is a big fan of anamorphic lenses. And you should absolutely check his newly written EOSHD Panasonic GH2 Shooter’s Guide!
P.S.: Search links for the Berthiot anamorphic 2X on eBay (Click here) and for the C-mount Fujian on eBay (Click here).

2 years ago |Because it is recorded in 16/9 AVCHD mode, with the 2X anamorphic, that’s why the black bars are so big. It should be better in 4/3 mode (VGA), but AVCHD has a better rendering, even with the “anamorphic hack”. There it’s like a 3.55:1 eq of 1920X540, and in 4/3 mode it could gives a 2.66:1 eq. of 1920X720.
