The SIRUI 35mm F1.8 1.33x is a manual-focus anamorphic lens for Micro Four Thirds and APS-C bodies. Its 1.33x squeeze widens the horizontal field of view and gives a 2.4:1 widescreen image without cropping in post. The 10-blade iris produces the oval bokeh and horizontal flares that anamorphic shooters want. It suits filmmakers and video shooters on a budget who accept manual focus, no electronics and some edge softness wide open. Against pricier anamorphic glass it is far more affordable, but it lacks autofocus, EXIF data and the sharpness of cine primes.

Reviewers treat it as an affordable way into anamorphic shooting. They praise the widescreen look, oval bokeh and flares for the outlay, and accept softness wide open and the fully manual operation as part of the deal.
The SIRUI 35mm F1.8 is a 1.33x anamorphic lens for Micro Four Thirds mount cameras. It covers Micro Four Thirds and APS-C sensors and is suited to 4K capture. The 1.33x squeeze widens the horizontal field of view by 33%, and the de-squeezed image has a 2.4:1 cinematic format without cropping in post.
The body is made of aircraft aluminum alloy. The optics use German-manufactured Schott glass elements with multilayer Nano-coatings. A 10-blade iris produces oval bokeh, and the focus ring turns 191°.
With optional E, EF-M, and Z adapter rings, the lens fits APS-C mirrorless cameras. Full-frame cameras need to be switched to APS-C format.
