Lomo Illumin S35 anyone?

Is there any Illumina owners on Reduser? i am wondering about 18mm and 25mm coverage of Gemini and Helium.
For on paper they cover 33.5mm diagonal " all clear" but apparently that diagonal is larger with some fall off. i would just like to know some real life impressions on Gemini
thanks

I’ve shot 3 features on them on gemini. They cover 2.40 just fine, I think they vignette slightly at 16x9.

Hi Nick thank you for fast reply. If i understand correctly horizontal portion of Gemini is fine as long as high is reduced to Scope aspect ration. is this just 18mm 25mm or all of them? would you by any chance have some R3D of full format with that vignetting visible?

18mm vignettes at FF, but is clean 5kHD on gemini.

I don't have any examples as I wouldn't shoot anything with vignetting ;-) I will say it's never been a problem. Actually come to think of it, I have done plenty of commercials in 16x9 on the Gemini, and I don't think I had any problems with vignetting.
