The Sirui 75mm T2.9 1.6x is a manual-focus anamorphic prime for Canon RF-mount bodies. Its 1.6x squeeze gives a 2.4:1 frame in 3:2 capture and 2.8:1 in 16:9, with the horizontal view of roughly a 46mm lens and the vertical reach of a 75mm. It delivers the anamorphic signatures — horizontal blue flares and oval bokeh — at a price far below cine anamorphics, though it is slower and fully manual. It suits indie filmmakers and hybrid shooters who want widescreen character and can work without autofocus or stabilization.

Owners of Sirui's anamorphic line praise the widescreen look, flare character and oval bokeh for the money. They note the manual focus, slower aperture and flare intensity as the main trade-offs.
The Sirui 75mm T2.9 1.6x Anamorphic Lens is a cinema-style lens with a native Canon RF mount. It has a 1.6x squeeze factor, so it frames like a 46mm lens horizontally while keeping the vertical field of view of a 75mm lens. It produces a shallow depth of field and a soft background blur.
It shoots in two aspect ratios: 3:2 gives a 2.4:1 image, and 16:9 gives a wider 2.8:1 image. Pointing the lens at a light source produces a horizontal blue flare. The 1.6x squeeze also stretches distant points of light into oval bokeh. The 75mm focal length compresses distance, making far objects appear closer.
The body is fully metal. It has an 82mm filter thread and a 1/4"-20 threaded hole. The focus and aperture rings are geared at the same position as on the 50mm version of this lens, which makes switching between the two easy.
