Overview
The BLAZAR LENS Remus II 50mm T2.4 Full Frame 1.5X Anamorphic Lens is a cine-style prime built for ARRI PL mount cameras, delivering a classic widescreen anamorphic look with full-frame 3:2 sensor coverage. With a constant 1.5x squeeze factor and a T2.4 maximum aperture, it suits filmmakers chasing shallow depth of field, silver lens flares and a distinctive retro cinematic character straight out of the camera. The lens covers a 36 x 24mm image circle, making it a strong match for today's full-frame cinema cameras.
A bold gold metal finish houses an all-new oval iris design with 16 rounded blades, shaping backgrounds into soft, oval bokeh with a refined flare signature. Cine-friendly touches include 0.8 MOD focus and iris gears for pro follow focus systems, a 1/4"-20 lens support thread, an 80mm front diameter that suits most matte boxes, a 77mm filter thread, and 150° of smooth barrel rotation for precise focus pulls. The ARRI PL mount can also be swapped for a separately available Canon EF mount.
Full-Frame 3:2 Anamorphic Coverage
The Remus 1.5x series maintains a constant 1.5x squeeze factor and supports true 3:2 full-frame shooting, covering a 36 x 24mm image circle. That makes it a natural fit for today's full-frame and large-sensor cine cameras looking for a widescreen anamorphic image straight out of camera.
Swap to a Canon EF Mount
This lens ships in ARRI PL mount, giving you compatibility with a wide range of cinema cameras and rigs. If you shoot on a different system, the PL mount can be swapped for a separately available Canon EF mount.
Lightweight Enough for Gimbal Work
Weighing only 720g, the Remus II 50mm is remarkably light and compact for an anamorphic prime, making it easy to balance on gimbals such as the DJI Ronin 4D for handheld and run-and-gun cinematic work.
Silver Flares and Oval Bokeh
The lens produces a signature retro anamorphic look, with silver lens flares and an enhanced oval bokeh that separates highlights from the background. Choose the coating that suits your look, from warm, sunny flares to cool, contemporary blue streaks, while the T2.4 aperture adds an elegant focus falloff.
