Cinematic Anamorphic Look

This lens delivers the cinema-standard oval bokeh aesthetic without requiring costly anamorphic glass. By combining a spherical design with oval aperture modification, it emulates anamorphic rendering simply and affordably. Apply 1:2.35 aspect ratio black bars in post-production to achieve a widescreen effect, giving your footage a polished, big-screen look.

Why Choose 135mm for Filmmaking?

The 135mm telephoto focal length adds power and drama to visual storytelling:

  • Strong Compression – Isolates subjects while pulling backgrounds closer.
  • Expressive Portraits – Flatters faces with natural compression.
  • Cinematic Depth – Creates striking visual separation and subject emphasis.
  • Combined with the oval aperture, this Canon FD lens delivers a visually rich, cinematic telephoto perspective.

Canon FD Optical Heritage

Canon FD lenses are renowned for their:

  • Sharp yet warm rendering – balancing clarity with organic character.
  • Reliable mechanics – smooth manual focus and aperture control.
  • Durable all-metal build – built to last decades of professional use.

This cine-modded Canon FD S.C 135mm F3.5 transforms these strengths into a filmmaking tool capable of distinctive visuals.
