[Konvas] Square Front Anamorphics

[Augustine Arredondo]

Thanks for the info!I am actually using it on a Red camera. I bought it from
a co-worker and it came with a converted PL mount.
it seems well collimated. Of course most tests have been with flares - i
couldn't help myself.
He tells me if I can find some with oct-19 mounts he can help me get them
converted to PL.

I got it form him for $600. I am not made of money so I am not looking to
spend a mint on these lenses. But, i do have a little to set aside.

Funny thing. I don't own the camera and I am not even a DP. I am more of a
cinema enthusiast. I am an editor by trade but i do direct small projects
and shoot some as well. Getting the 50mm has me inspired to shoot something
larger.

How do I check the mid-day color of the lens? Also, the lens is from 69. I
know I am ignorant of many things to consider. I appreciate your help.

Thanks for the reply!
