[SOLD] Rectilux with Kowa 8z/16h + accessories.

[David Hessel]

The Kowa 8x/16h is considered to be one of the best and most desireable of the anamorphic projection lenses. Their only downside is the dual focus that is normally required to use them, this is no longer an issue with the installed single focus rectilux.Overall the lenses are in very good condition, the Rectilux is like new but the Kowa has 2 chip like cracks on the rear element. From my testing so far this doesn't show up in the image as it tends to fall outside the imaging area and would only be visible in the areas where the adapter would vignette anyway. The kowa is pre-installed and all original parts for it are included as well. It also comes with a front lens cap and 2 rectigrips for quick changing/alignment on different lenses. There is not haze or fungus and the focus is very smooth.I am attaching all the pics I have of it currently, others can be provided on request.

Kowas is basically free as the Rectilux and Rectigrips cost more than this.

Thank you.

Price: $1200 O.B.O

You should show the cracks/chips...

 

[David Hessel]

Thanks, I have tried but they don't photograph well. Basically you cannot really see the crack/chip directly, it has a different rainbow like reflection that makes it visible. I will try again and put a photo of the rear glass either way.

Thanks!

 

[David Hessel]

pictures added thanks, I have used it from 35mm to 140mm on an a s35 sensor. At 35mm there is a little vignetting once cropped to 2.4:1 which can be seen in the images I posted. At 50mm there is no vignetting at all even before cropping. Thanks.
