Samyang V-AF 1.7× Anamorphic MF Adapter

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

The Samyang V-AF 1.7× Anamorphic MF Adapter turns V-AF series lenses into cinema-grade anamorphic optics. Designed for V-AF 24, 35, 45, 75 and 100 mm lenses, it delivers a bright T1.9 maximum aperture for outstanding low-light performance. The 1.7× squeeze ratio provides a wider field of view and classic CinemaScope character with flexible reframing in post-production.

Soft Focus Mode produces a gentle, dreamy rendering that flatters skin and enhances narrative aesthetics. Oval bokeh and amber flares add depth and a natural, less bluish anamorphic signature. With a 270° manual focus throw and LED tally lamp (front and mount index), operation remains intuitive even in tight rigs.

Native integration with Sony E-mount V-AF lenses ensures precise electronic communication to maintain resolution and consistency. Updating lens firmware via Lens Manager is recommended to unlock full functionality.
