Want to Buy - Lomo Anamorphic PL mount

[Luke Neumann]

Preferably 35mm and/or 50mm.

Just an FYI (that might help your search also)

Maybe specify Squarefront or Roundfront.

35mm's are getting rare in both Round & Square. The RF 35mm is much larger and distorts quite a bit - most like/prefer the 35mm SF. RF's are more modern, SF's are older designs that flare more and also have more pronounced mumps (although that's an aesthetic some like).

The 35mm will be more costly in RF or SF.

I think there are still some (RF & SF) for sale here, but you'd need to get them PL mounted. SF's are generally done in Russia (or similar) as they're a more complex job. RF's can be done by ordering PL mounts from Russia and getting the mounts changed locally.

Good point. Looking for round front and the 50mm is the one I would prefer but really just looking for anything. They seem rare in PL too. You ever gone through the process of changing one from OCT to PL?

Most of mine (Squares) were already PL converted when I bought them back on 2010. I have a zoom to get converted (it's OCT19), but I'm not really in need of that yet, so I'm putting it off - LOL.

On the RF's, you could probably order up a mount from Viktor (SPBsale) and do it yourself... but I wouldn't recommend it. If you're investing in Ana glass, best to get the lens set up and collimated professionally - so you might as well get the mount done at the same time

Here's a link for Darryl's Ana lenses - he's a very reputable seller here. http://www.spinningmirror.com/spinningmirror/Anamorphic.html
