Before putting it up on eBay I thought I'd post it here.
Up for sale a very nice focus through Iscorama 1060 MC 1.5x anamorphic lens.

Lens is in great condition, and comes with:
1) rear redstan clamp to mount on your taking lens
2) front filter redstan clamp to mount 72mm filters on the anamorphic
3) +0.5 diopter for close ups

This lens has the much more desired 1.5x ratio (gives 2.65:1 starting from 16:9). You only focus your taking lens (anamorphic has no focus ring). Great alternative to the other Iscoramas, tack sharp.
It has a short body and large rear element so it can be used on full frame or crop sensor. It is lightweight so no need of fancy support mechanism.
It has an easy alignment mechanism.
Minimum focus distance is around 3-3.5m but you can focus closer using the included +0.5 diopter. If you add another +0.5 diopter you could focus even closer (see the attached video below).
This is much superior optically compared to the other focus through lenses like the Panasonic LA7200, Optex, Soligor, Century Optics which are useable only from f=4-5.6 and above and are mostly useable for landscape or wideangle establishing shots. This is sharp even at wide apertures and has Iscorama glass quality.


Test video here with the 5d mark III:


Note: I had to be at the same time behind and in front of the camera, so where the dof is too shallow I may be out of focus by some mm. The lens is really sharp ;)

Price: 1,500 Eur shipped.
