Come learn the magic behind these two exciting products directly from the German Manufacturer Vantage.
Hawk Anamorphic Lenses Vantage Film designs and manufacturers the Hawk Lenses. These widescreen lenses have their anamorphic element in the middle of the lens as opposed to being placed up front in other designs. This produces makes them more flare-resistant. The new V-Series and V-Plus Seriesare an improvement over the older C-Series as far as sharpness, contrast, barrel-distortion and close-focus are concerned.
The V-Series also have the best minimum focus of any anamorphic lens series available and as such can rival spherical lenses. Vantage also offers a series of lightweight lenses called V-Lite Series , which are ideal for handheld and steadicam while also giving an optical performance comparable to the V and V-Plus lenses. They are available in both the traditional 2.0x and new 1.3x squeeze which provides coverage for 3-perforation 35mm, S16mm as well as 16:9 digital cameras such as the F35 and RED ONE.
Blue Vision - The horizontal blue flare created by certain anamorphic lenses led to some discussions in recent years. On the one hand, this optical imperfection can be irritating and disturb the image. On the other hand, its technical look is appreciated as an additional "attribute". The Hawk Blue Vision filters allow you, the filmmaker, the creative choice.
