Today I am reviewing one of my new favorite lenses and the best budget anamorphic lens I have ever seen, the Great Joy 50mm t2.9! This is a 50mm full frame anamorphic with a 1.8x squeeze factor and while it isn't perfect I think it is the best one on the market right now for under $2,000. Hope you enjoy the video!

I’m glad to see more examples of the amber flare version. Let me know if there are other videos to check out with tons of shots. I’m not a big fan of the flares on most budget Anamorphic lenses, but these seem to be acceptable. And I love the other characteristics. Thinking a $16 diopter set from BH photo and I’m good to go:)… I would also love to know the link to the 10% bloom filter you like and more before and more comparisons. Shooting at 6K Open Gate/Full Frame, and wondering if that bloom filter would match my aesthetic:)…

Glad you enjoyed the video! I love the amber flares on this lens. I use the moment 10% CineBloom filter with it amzn.to/4b6xUuG

@@calebbrunkow Does that make it flare less? Because it diffuses? Basically have a Nisi variable ND filter, and a protective lens that should not have any effect… If I added this, and potentially used it with a single step up ring for my 49 mm thread lenses like my Helios 44-2, do you think there would be too many lens elements, and it would create some wonkiness? If I also potentially added on the diopter? I am thinking of going for this; it would also be great to know if you have links to projects that you shot on the amber flare or when you have wished you have had a blue one some types of shots, if ever…

@DirectorDanielMason @DirectorDanielMason if anything it adds more flares or makes the lens flare more easily. I think using the step up rings would be completely fine, I use those on my lenses all the time. I have used diopters on my lenses before and to be honest I haven’t used that lens almost at all since making that video haha

@@calebbrunkow Well, if you’re really not using it much, I’m in the market! :-)… Their faster Cato lens sounds very promising, though I doubt it will be in my price range at this time :-)… Thank you for all the info :-)… Seeing what my friends say on Facebook re: the flares that make their hearts sing- and I have seen a bunch for under $700 used so, here’s to hoping (B&H Photo has them for $800 off, new)… I might want the blue or the amber flare, but it’s very hard to say… Really, I’m not a very big fan of horizontal flares, but at least they’re pretty subtle on this one :-)… Thanks again! :-)

@DirectorDanielMason you’re welcome! Glad I could help. Not currently in the market to sell but I’ll let you know. Not much point to sell it when they’re going for so little new now. Makes me wish I didn’t buy it when it first came out
