Atlas Mercury Prime Lens Set:

Designed by cinematographers for professional videographers, the Mercury 42mm T2.2 1.5x Anamorphic Prime Lens is part of the compact and lightweight Mercury Series from Atlas Lens Co. This series offers native full-frame coverage, enhanced bokeh, near-zero chromatic aberration, and a buttery vintage look that is warmer than that of the Orion series. In addition to the ease of supporting multiple delivery aspects, the Mercury Series 1.5x optical design allows for many of the visual characteristics image-makers love about the traditional 2x cinemascope format (oblong oval bokeh, barrel distortion, shallow depth of field) while also allowing for a meaningful size and weight reduction in the overall physical product design. This results in an ideal balance of compact size, weight, optical performance, and professional-focused usability across a variety of productions. Each Mercury lens provides the oval bokeh, pleasant barrel distortion, and shallow depth of field of the Atlas Orion 2x anamorphic primes but in a housing that is about half the size and weight of most pro anamorphic primes. The more compact size reduces fatigue and enables you to get closer to the action. Imaging area of 36.7mm x 25.54mm covers full-frame sensors as well as 16:9 / 3:2 / 4:3 sensors, with easy delivery to 2:1 / 2.25:1 / 2.66:1 / 2.4:1.
