Anamorphic home theater lens system supporting up to 8K projector resolution. Delivers 30% higher brightness and 33% higher 2.4:1 resolution compared to letterbox zooming. Anamorphic (2) Dream 2 versions: Blutonium Records: VLMX 929-3: Spain: 2002: Sell This Version: 2 versions. To produce 2.40:1 wide format imagery, one could crop the top and bottom of the frame using the '6K WS' setting, in which case 81% of the pixels would be preserved. The other route would be to use a 2X anamorphic lens, in which case the sides of the frame would need to be cropped, and only 61% of the pixels would be preserved.

Is your home theater all about getting the most immersive experience? The fact is that over 80% of the most popular movies are made in the UltraWide 2.4:1 aspect ratio for commercial theaters. These movies are meant and created to be the largest experience in your theater but on a flat panel TV or 16:9 projection system they are actually displayed as the smallest experience with the lowest performance. So now today’s most popular projector models also include anamorphic upconversion modes for use with an external anamorphic lens to convert their full performance into the larger 2.4:1 cinema movie format for the highest brightness and detail – all while still providing modes for watching 16:9 content. The anamorphic advantage means these projectors can actually deliver better movie performance than you can get in most commercial theaters.
How does anamorphic projection increase the brightness and detail of movies?
THE ORIGINAL MOVIE SURROUNDED BY UNUSED BLACK DISPLAY PIXELS. Consumer UltraWide 4K movies are delivered using 3840 horizontal x 1600 vertical pixels to maintain their original 2.4:1 aspect ratio (ie 3840/1600=2.4). When displayed in the center of the 4096 x 2160 pixels of a 4K/4096 projector there are 2,701,200 unused black display pixels surrounding the movie. |
THE UPCONVERTED MOVIE USING THE REPURPOSED BLACK PIXELS. Anamorphic 4K/4096 upconversion, now an included option in all new 2020 JVC and Sony 4K/4096 home theater projector models, applies digital scaling and possibly other image processing algorithms to convert the movie to a higher resolution of 4096 x 2133 so that previously unused display pixels are repurposed for a total increase of 43%. While no real, additional source resolution is implied, upconversion from real movie content has been proven to not only provide the additional image brightness from those millions of additional pixels but also additional realistic detail and subsequent improved clarity to the projected images. However, this process also leaves the movie appearing vertically stretched by 25%. |
THE UPCONVERTED MOVIE ON A 2.4:1 SCREEN THROUGH A PALADIN DCR LENS. The upconverted movie is optically compressed through an external Paladin DCR anamorphic lens to remove the 25% vertical stretch. This restores the original 2.4:1 movie aspect ratio while retaining the significant performance enhancement from the upconverted pixels for greater visual clarity combined with a net brightness increase of approximately 38% over projection of the original movie. |
How can you watch 16:9 TV in your anamorphic 2.4:1 4K cinema?
While 80% of the most popular movies are made for your 2.4:1 cinema, new 2020 4K projectors from Sony and JVC also give you many options for watching 16:9 TV programming such as sports without moving the anamorphic lens. All instantaneous. All at the push of a button.
16:9 Classic. Complete content is displayed in its original format with full vertical resolution but reformatted using 3072 horizontal resolution. Sony 4K: “Squeeze”. JVC 4K: “Anamorphic D”. (note 1) | |
16:9 Wide (Stretched). Complete content is displayed with full 3840 x 2160 original resolution but with a 25% horizontal stretched appearance to better fill the screen, leaving about 3% of the screen width black on the left and right. Sony 4K: “Normal”. JVC 4K: “Off”. (note 1) | |
16:9 Full (Stretched). The content fills the entire screen by stretching to 4096 horizontal resolution and cropping about 3% from both top and bottom, resulting in a 25% stretched appearance. Sony 4K: “2.35:1 Zoom”. JVC 4K: “Zoom”. | |
16:9 Full (Cropped). The image fills the entire screen with full 4096 resolution and with no stretched appearance by cropping 10% from both top and bottom. Sony 4K: “V-Stretch”. JVC 4K: “Anamorphic C”. | |
Note 1. When 2.4:1 movies are perfectly framed by your screen then 13 out of 2160 pixel rows of 4K 16:9 content will project onto both the top and bottom screen border. This may impact the visibility of very small characters if they are placed close to the edge such as with sports broadcast scores. |

Description
VZ (Vazen) 28mm t/2.2 Anamorphic Prime is specially designed for Micro Four Thirds cameras with 4:3 sensors. Characterized by its front anamorphic design, the VZ Anamorphic prime delivers a butterly smooth oval bokeh, signature blue horizontal flare and the widescreen cinematic look. The new 28mm has a compact design that it can easily be fitted onto a handheld gimbal.
The 1.8x squeeze produces a cinematic 2.39:1 aspect ratio to your image when capturing with 4:3 M43 sensors like Panasonic GH5 and Z-cam E2. The lens features a fast t/2 aperture and 2.7” minimum focus distance, the focus breathing is also minimal .

Despite the rugged design, the VZ anamorphic prime is relatively compact and lightweight. Security spy 4 2 11 bolum. It was designed with the finest mechanical functionality to allow cinematographers to film with ease. The 95mm front diameter allows usage with standard matte box and the independent aperture and focus rings are built with 0.8mod cine gears. The focus throw is 300°.
Other focal lengths of the VZ primes are in the works. We expect the 65mm VZ 1.8x anamorphic primes for M43 sensors to be launched late 2020.
Other M43 cameras like Blackmagic Pocket Cinema Camera (BMPCC 4k) can also be used.
