Technovision Classic rebirth of an icon
The Technovision Classic 1.5X 40-70mm is the first anamorphic zoom lens, based on a front anamorphic design with Full Frame (24x36) coverage and a 1.5X squeeze factor. The 1.5x factor turned out to be the most versatile anamorphic factor as it can be used with a classic S35 sensor as well as larger sensors and different aspect ratios such as 16:9, 4:3 or 6:5.
The 1.5X squeeze factor produces a genuine classic anamorphic look and bokeh due to the front anamorphic lens design and refers to a variety of aspect ratios, eg. on a 4:3 sensor for a 1:1.78 (16:9) distribution format or on a widely available 16:9 sensor for a 1:2.40 (wide screen, cropped) distribution format.
The features of the Technovision Classic 1.5X 40-70mm are considered outstanding to offer the DoP freedom in formats, framing and flexibility on set. MOD is at 0,8m / 2’6”, constant aperture of T3.2, compact design and light weight of 3,6kg / 7,9lb. A perfect choice also for handheld camera work.

The Technovision Classic Series starts with two zoom lenses and five newly announced primes : a 40mm, 50mm, 75mm, 100mm and 135mm. This 1.5X anamorphic lens series of zooms and primes is characterized by outstanding optical and mechanical properties, as well as a large image circle.
