Great review. I have had mine for about 2 days and have testing it out with my Leica Rs, my vintage Nikkors and with some modern glass. I think the moment compares really nicely with the Aivascope 1.5x I used to have which is pretty insane being that the Aivascope cost me 3x as much as the Moment did. I was also a little turned off at first at such a light squeeze of 1.33x but the bokeh to my eye appears to be a little more elongated than I would normally expect 1.33x to have. The Amber flares are also nice and have great secondaries and texture to them. Some of the modern budget anamorphic lenses like the Suiri and Loawa Nanomorphs have flares that feel very flat - almost more like a flare filter. I have been using it on my Red Komodo in R3D and Fuji X-H2s as ProRes RAW. Resolve and FCPX both import the anamorphic footage desqueezed already as part of the R3D raw file very close to the 2.4.1 aspect ratio. The Apple ProRes raw files have to be manually desqueezed but that’s simple enough. The adapter holds geometry and squeeze ratio very nicely at both ends of its focus range which is more than I can say about the Suiri lenses I have owned in that past. Great review + subscribed
Also forgot to mention 2 things. Infinity focus an the taking lenses is not always the sharpest. Sometimes to achieve critical focus it may be a hair prior to infinity focus with some lenses. I have found that It’s a good idea to test this out and note it on my taking lenses. Last notes are that the widest on s35 sensors I have been able to clear without vignetting is 35mm and the max is 135mm true to what moment list the range at. My RED is s35 and my Fuji x-H2s has opengate that’s a little larger than s35 and both with well within those ranges. Last note is that if your using a focal reducer like the metabones etc the adapter is not compatible. I’m my test I was unable to get the moment to focus when used with a speed booster/ focal reducer.
thanks so much for watching, Jordan! totally agree about being surprised by the bokeh with this adapter, my sirui 1.33x anamorphic lens definitely doesn’t produce pronounced ovals like this. and thank you for these great tips! i’ll pin your comment so others can also benefit from your advice :D
@@jordanwright5795 Hi Jordan, nice to check your feedback, which lens have you tested so far? Do you think it works good with vintage as well as the modern lenses?
@@Itaketoomanypics I really like the Aivascope. I think it’s got a couple of things going for it over the Moment. The built in FF gear is nice and the slight but additional stretch. That said IMO Moment got crazy close to the IQ of the Aivascope. If someone has money to burn sure the Aivascope is a little better IMO but I really feel like moment got it 95% as good for about 30% of the cost…
I’ve been waiting for reviews to come in on this thing! You might be the first since it’s release. Mine arrived but I’m on a work trip till Saturday, and I’m SO excited to try it
same i kept searching for videos on it as i waited for it to get here 😅 ooo hang in there haha you’re gonna love it! so far it’s lived up to all of my expectations, even after waiting for it to come out for so long
You should try doing some medium format photography / videos. Leave the adapter mounted horizontally while you rotate the camera vertically, that way it stretches the “shorter” side of the sensor and leaving you with a square medium format type photo after you de squeeze! I think you should be able to do it with this adapter since you can rotate it in plate
@@isaakmorin wait this comment just blew my mind LOL this is an amazing idea! i’ll def try that out haha thanks Isaak! lmk if you end up trying that yourself as well
Plants growing on trees, like epiphytes, use trees for support and access to sunlight but don't take nutrients from the tree itself. Instead, they gather nutrients from rain, air, and organic debris around them. It's a clever survival strategy!
Thanks for the review. I have been sitting on the fence about getting one of these as I wasn't sure how or if it would work with my Red. Been scared to touch anamorphic adaptors due to the double focus issue, but after seeing your review/test footage I finally decided to go for it. Appreciate you taking the time.
of course, thank you so much for watching!! if you do end up getting it, please consider using my link in the description - it helps the channel out at no additional cost to you! i'd really appreciate it :) and also let me know how you end up liking it!
That 1.33X adapter renders the bokeh a lot more oval like a 2X (which is awesome!) than other competing 1.33X adapters in the market. If you told me it was a 2X adapter, I would believe you. :)
Beautiful! I'm so jealous! That looks like a baby tree branch. The tree could have gotten a little damaged in that spot and when it healed it sprung a new branch...? 😅. Not sure.
I love this! I was a huge doubter of this adapter without even doing research. Let’s just say I’m returning what I just bought and picking up one of these! For my Leica Rs 😮💨. Great video thanks Kendra!
thanks so much, Eddie! :) i totally get it haha i definitely had my doubts but was very pleasantly surprised after trying it out, i hope you also enjoy using it! i'd love to see results you get pairing this with Leica Rs 🤩
Subbed immediately for the voiceover audio quality alone lol also this is the first video to actually tempt me toward buying this adapter footage looks incredible from it, but I'm still a little more tempted by the sirui 1.25x adapter because it is compatible with 35mm on full frame! Would love to see a comparison of the two, but no one has done it yet!
haha thank you! that's totally fair, plus it's a bit cheaper. i will say tho, this adapter renders bokeh really nicely and honestly makes it look like it's more than a 1.33x squeeze! not sure how the bokeh with the sirui adapter looks. i'd def love to make a comparison if sirui sent one over for me to try hehe
@@kendrasananikone Maybe they slid an anamorfake element in there to accentuate the squeeze? Definitely wouldn't have been a bad idea but also could be why it vignettes at anything less than 50 mil?
@@kylehessling2679 hmm that's possible! i'm not so sure how the optics of adapters like this work so i can't say for sure hahah but fwiw, my sankor anamorphic also requires a minimum focal length of about 50mm for full frame as well.
Great, succinct review. Thank you. Subbed. That is mistletoe growing out of your tree by the way. Harmless, unless you touch it and put your hands in your mouth before washing. or decide to eat it for some reason. lol
just realized a couple people already pointed out the mistletoe. It won't kill your tree if it's full grown, but it will hurt young trees by siphoning off their resources. It's so common where I live, most people just ignore it.
Looks great! I opened mine up today and took it for a test run. Similarly exciting results! (My video will be up later this week). Glad to connect with your work here and glad to subscribe!
Awesome video! Do you happen to know how to set the focus to infinity on the sigma 85 dg dn 1.4 ? I really can’t find out how to set focus to infinity anywhere on TH-cam!
thanks Conrad! i believe you can set the focus to infinity by setting your lens to MF then just focus it "away from you" if that makes sense and just keep turning it all the way. sometimes, you have to bring it back a tad to achieve the right focus, just play around with it until you see that it's sharp when the adapter is on! i hope this helps
Have you tried to setup the adapter to infinity and let the lens auto focus? I tried that with the same lens and the ISCO anamorphic adapter and works great within the focus range.
Thanks for the little review! I've been thinking of picking up this adapter but after seeing the size here I may need to upgrade a bit of my rig first to accommodate it!! Love the way it looks for sure. Oh! Not a plant expert but that may be mistletoe on your tree? It's a parasite and can damage the tree if not treated if I'm not mistaken. I'm sure someone else can correct me if I'm wrong on that though 😅 love the vid, just subbed!
thanks for watching, Landry! :) yeah i'd def recommend adding lens support to your rig with this adapter LOL it's a chonker for sure and oh no omg i will look into mistletoe, thank you!!
I finally took mine out to shoot a bit today. My main camera right now is the X-E4, and it honestly handles the images really well, but it's a little hilarious having such a giant lens setup attached to that tiny little camera. But I'm pretty impressed so far with the photos I've taken, although I am a little bummed that I don't yet have something with IBIS, because I absolutely need to stabilize all this footage now.
picturing the xe4 with this attached to it is a great image hahah but yeah it's unfortunate how heavy and big it makes your rig now :/ time to upgrade to an xh2s hehe thanks for watching, Max!
It's called Seasonspree, and there are a couple trailers on TH-cam if you search for it. Should be out around summer, so as soon as I can stop dumping my entire paycheck into that, I've got my sights set firmly on that camera. I'm also using the Lensbaby Burnside as my taking lens, and both Moment and Lensbaby say they haven't seen that combination of lenses yet, so I'm excited to shoot some examples to show both of them.
it looks so cute! i'll def add it to my wishlist so i know when it comes out :) good luck with the game and also hope you get that xh2s soon after it releases, how exciting! ooo that will be a very neat combo! i'd love to see that as well
Hey Kendra ✌🏻 I am so curious about this adapter and how the long term use will look like. I just discovered your channel. Great videos, just subbed. Keep it up. 👍🏻
It would have been interesting to a see you compare 35mm lens with a 50mm+1.33anamorphic lens. They should be about the same focal widths, and the differences would be clearer. I wonder because I have the sigma 35/1.4 and since that lens apparently does not work with the 1.33 adapter, I wonder about getting a 50mm lens + adapter, but then I would get another ~35mm, but I would like to see how pronounced the anamorphic look is.
amazing !! Thank for the video, I want to buy this adapter but I'm scared about the vignette.. I have also the 55zeiss have you seen something like this ?
thanks for watching, Steve! there’s no vignetting when i use the 55mm, it’s the minimum compatible focal length for a full frame camera with this adapter. www.shopmoment.com/products/anamorphic-lens-adapter if you scroll all the way to the bottom, you can find their chart that illustrates which lenses work for which sensors
Hi Kendra , beautiful shots! But i really need your help with this adapter. I noticed you have it on the tripod. I am thinking of buying it for shooting small weddings handheld. Do you think shooting handheld would be impossible due to the wide aspect of the anamorphic? I don't mind the weight and the size.Same camera. Let me know thanks
thank you! i don’t think it’s impossible to shoot handheld, i just think you might need some support for the lens +adapter as it does make the camera extremely front heavy. totally possible to shoot handheld tho, especially because it is single focus!
Awesome review. Would this adapter work well with a 35mm field of view on a Sony FX3? I currently have both the Zeiss 55mm and Sony 35mm 1.8 and would like to try it on both.
thanks for watching! 35mm would have a lot of vignetting on the FX3, the recommended minimum focal length for this adapter on a FF camera is at least 50mm. fwiw, i really enjoy the look of it on the 55mm! www.shopmoment.com/products/anamorphic-lens-adapter they have a handy chart here at the bottom of this page that shows focal length compatibility for the adapter!
Just curious what day you got it and if you were the very first Becker? Really great footage by the way, the show the characteristics of your 50 on the anamorphic.
thanks for watching! yes the image will be vignetted at 24mm on a full frame camera. www.shopmoment.com/products/anamorphic-lens-adapter you can check out the focal length compatibility chart if you scroll to the bottom of this page here!
www.shopmoment.com/products/anamorphic-lens-adapter there’s a chart here, if you scroll all the way down, that shows which focal lengths work on which sensors!
If i want to shoot a 4:3 video with anamorphic lens and desqueeze it to 16:9, instead of 21:9, which anamorphic lens do i need to choose, 1.33 or 1.55?
Hello :) Nice review ! By any chance could you tell me which « cage »/« rig » I could use for a Sony Alpha 7 IV + the 50mm + Anamorphic adapter ? Because that thing is pretty heavy handled :/
thank you! i personally use a smallrig for my own setup! this is the cage i use (it's compatible with the a7iv and also on sale rn!): partner.shopmoment.com/c/3917540/788580/11129?prodsku=2999&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.shopmoment.com%2Fproducts%2Fsmallrig-camera-cage-for-sony-a7s-iii%2F&intsrc=PUI2_5677 and i just use smallrig rails and baseplate like this: amzn.to/3FzLg5p amzn.to/42pIXM9 hope this helps!
@@kendrasananikone Hi from Paris, France :) Thx Kendra for taking the time and giving those tips… This is really helpful . … When using the adapter in Photo mode, I understand that the image you get in the camera's LCD screen is compressed… So I guess it's not practical or impossible (?) to do a manual focus when stretched. I should use a remote monitor that stretches the image on the fly, would you have by any chance a brand I could look at ? (and I won't ever bother you again ;)
@@betterburnout of course! sorry for the late reply, i haven't been on youtube for a few days. i personally use an atomos shinobi: amzn.to/403RsuG and it has great color accuracy and brightness when shooting outdoors! feel free to ask questions haha i encourage them, thanks again for watching :) all the way from paris too haha so cool!
@@kendrasananikone :) Yes I especially like the encounters we can make from so far away, it's one of the nice things about the web / Thanks again for this information ✨🌸
yes you can use this adapter with 82mm, there are step down rings included with the adapter (82mm included)! and no there is no vignetting at 55mm. www.shopmoment.com/products/anamorphic-lens-adapter here at the bottom of the page there is a chart that shows the compatible focal lengths!
@@kendrasananikone darn that is a bummer. I was afraid it might affect AF but wasn’t sure too because the connection of the lens is still intact. Thanks for confirming though
You can always use something like the DJI LiDAR based AF module to add AF if your dying to have AF. You’d also need to add a focus gear to the anamorphic adapter. I did this with the Aivascope I use to have. I’m going to be measuring the barrel of my moment this week to figure out what size gear I’m going to need for it in order to pull focus wirelessly. My experience is that this works well!
Hi there, thank you for the video, very interesting adapter. I actually hava a couple of questions if you'd be willing to help me out. I shoot on a Canon EOS 100D and I have three different lenses: a EFS 18-135mm 0.39/1.3ft, EFS 10-18mm 9,22m/0,7ft and a EF 50mm 1:1.8 STM 0,35m/1.1ft-∞. I was wondering if these adapter would work with the Gear I already have ?
yes, it will definitely work on your 50mm and your 18-135mm zoomed in. i believe there will be vignetting at wider focal lengths such as your 10-18mm lens, i added a link in the description to the product where you can find their chart that lists out in detail what the minimum focal length compatibility is. thanks for watching!
I'd increase the depth of field to say T/2.8 - T/5. As the image gets wider, the bokeh gets uglier with such shallow depth of field at such wide aspect ratio. On top of that you get visible vignetting. There's a reason and place for straight 50mm focal length.
The plant looks like a mistletoe. Mistletoe is semi-parasitic and can damage trees so much that they die. Mistletoe should definitely not be grown in the garden, but removed from trees.

thank you! i don’t think it’s impossible to shoot handheld, i just think you might need some support for the lens +adapter as it does make the camera extremely front heavy. totally possible to shoot handheld tho, especially because it is single focus!
Awesome review. Would this adapter work well with a 35mm field of view on a Sony FX3? I currently have both the Zeiss 55mm and Sony 35mm 1.8 and would like to try it on both.
thanks for watching! 35mm would have a lot of vignetting on the FX3, the recommended minimum focal length for this adapter on a FF camera is at least 50mm. fwiw, i really enjoy the look of it on the 55mm! www.shopmoment.com/products/anamorphic-lens-adapter they have a handy chart here at the bottom of this page that shows focal length compatibility for the adapter!
Just curious what day you got it and if you were the very first Becker? Really great footage by the way, the show the characteristics of your 50 on the anamorphic.
thanks for watching! no i was not the very first backer haha but i was part of the super early bird group. i received my adapter on weds the 1st
can you test with helios 44 ?
sure thing! i’ll try and shoot that this week
Far out, your test footage looks so good. How's pulling focus with it?
thank you! pulling focus is very nice and smooth!
@@kendrasananikone do you think the throw is long enough to the point you feel you would need a follow focus solution in the long term?
Hi! nice video... if i use a 24mm the image will be vignetted?
thanks for watching! yes the image will be vignetted at 24mm on a full frame camera. www.shopmoment.com/products/anamorphic-lens-adapter you can check out the focal length compatibility chart if you scroll to the bottom of this page here!
Looks fantastic! Does it work with any focal length taking lens?
www.shopmoment.com/products/anamorphic-lens-adapter there’s a chart here, if you scroll all the way down, that shows which focal lengths work on which sensors!
@@kendrasananikone Thank you!!
Wow beautiful test footage! That 55mm paired with the 1.33 takes it to another level. I subbed and would love to connect!
thank you! totally agree, can't wait to create more with this combo.
i'd love that as well, i'm a huge fan of your work and sunny sixteen!
If i want to shoot a 4:3 video with anamorphic lens and desqueeze it to 16:9, instead of 21:9, which anamorphic lens do i need to choose, 1.33 or 1.55?
i'm sorry i have no idea and i don't want to give you an uneducated response lol😅
Hello :) Nice review ! By any chance could you tell me which « cage »/« rig » I could use for a Sony Alpha 7 IV + the 50mm + Anamorphic adapter ? Because that thing is pretty heavy handled :/
thank you! i personally use a smallrig for my own setup!
this is the cage i use (it's compatible with the a7iv and also on sale rn!): partner.shopmoment.com/c/3917540/788580/11129?prodsku=2999&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.shopmoment.com%2Fproducts%2Fsmallrig-camera-cage-for-sony-a7s-iii%2F&intsrc=PUI2_5677
and i just use smallrig rails and baseplate like this:
amzn.to/3FzLg5p
amzn.to/42pIXM9
hope this helps!
@@kendrasananikone Hi from Paris, France :) Thx Kendra for taking the time and giving those tips… This is really helpful . … When using the adapter in Photo mode,
I understand that the image you get in the camera's LCD screen is compressed… So I guess it's not practical or impossible (?) to do a manual focus when stretched.
I should use a remote monitor that stretches the image on the fly, would you have by any chance a brand I could look at ? (and I won't ever bother you again ;)
@@betterburnout of course! sorry for the late reply, i haven't been on youtube for a few days. i personally use an atomos shinobi: amzn.to/403RsuG
and it has great color accuracy and brightness when shooting outdoors! feel free to ask questions haha i encourage them, thanks again for watching :) all the way from paris too haha so cool!
@@kendrasananikone :) Yes I especially like the encounters we can make from so far away, it's one of the nice things about the web / Thanks again for this information ✨🌸
@@betterburnout same here! no problem :)
is it possible to have autofocus work from the native lens without having to touch the anamorphic adapter?
unfortunately, no, not without buying additional gear like the dji lidar range finder :(
Were you wide open on the 55 1.8?
yes!
@@kendrasananikone cool! Have you tried it on a longer taking lens like a 75mm or 100mm wide open? Any samples?
Hi ! Can I use an adapter if I have a lens with a 82mm filter size? Is there vignetting at 55mm on a Zeiss lens?
yes you can use this adapter with 82mm, there are step down rings included with the adapter (82mm included)! and no there is no vignetting at 55mm. www.shopmoment.com/products/anamorphic-lens-adapter here at the bottom of the page there is a chart that shows the compatible focal lengths!
Definitely considering buying it. Does autofocus still works?
unfortunately, no it doesn’t :( but it’s very smooth to manually focus fwiw!
@@kendrasananikone darn that is a bummer. I was afraid it might affect AF but wasn’t sure too because the connection of the lens is still intact. Thanks for confirming though
@@SJYangProduction of course! it would be amazing if it was af tho haha
You can always use something like the DJI LiDAR based AF module to add AF if your dying to have AF. You’d also need to add a focus gear to the anamorphic adapter. I did this with the Aivascope I use to have. I’m going to be measuring the barrel of my moment this week to figure out what size gear I’m going to need for it in order to pull focus wirelessly. My experience is that this works well!
Hi there, thank you for the video, very interesting adapter. I actually hava a couple of questions if you'd be willing to help me out. I shoot on a Canon EOS 100D and I have three different lenses: a EFS 18-135mm 0.39/1.3ft, EFS 10-18mm 9,22m/0,7ft and a EF 50mm 1:1.8 STM 0,35m/1.1ft-∞. I was wondering if these adapter would work with the Gear I already have ?
yes, it will definitely work on your 50mm and your 18-135mm zoomed in. i believe there will be vignetting at wider focal lengths such as your 10-18mm lens, i added a link in the description to the product where you can find their chart that lists out in detail what the minimum focal length compatibility is. thanks for watching!
Thank you very much for your answer !! @@kendrasananikone
Mmmm… there’s no focus breathing…. That’s interesting. Might end up getting this
right?? i've been pretty impressed with this adapter. if you end up getting it, lmk how you like it!
I'd increase the depth of field to say T/2.8 - T/5. As the image gets wider, the bokeh gets uglier with such shallow depth of field at such wide aspect ratio. On top of that you get visible vignetting. There's a reason and place for straight 50mm focal length.
Lol, the bokeh looks awesome that's actually the only reason I want this adapter, i don't even care about the flares
Imagine that lens on a Helios 442 OMG
gonna try that this week! :D
@@kendrasananikone I would like to see the results
cool but turns everything softer
Most anamorphics are softer. Most people prefer it.
The plant looks like a mistletoe. Mistletoe is semi-parasitic and can damage trees so much that they die. Mistletoe should definitely not be grown in the garden, but removed from trees.
thanks for the info, i appreciate it! will definitely remove it from the tree haha
Seriously $1,299 … For this price I prefer to buy Sirui 25mm + 50mm not this thing - Ridiculous
fix the audio please
the audio is great.
