The SIRUI Venus 35mm is a full-frame 1.6x anamorphic prime with a T2.9 aperture, sold in L, E, RF and Z mounts. It gives the widescreen squeeze, oval bokeh and blue streak flares that anamorphic shooters want, with an 82mm front thread for filters. It is a manual-focus cinema lens, so it suits narrative and music-video work on a gimbal or tripod rather than run-and-gun autofocus shooting. Against pricier anamorphic glass from Cooke, Atlas or Vazen it trades some mechanical polish for a much lower entry point, and owners say the character holds up on a full-frame sensor.
