IGA have developed a set of lenses to deliver the look, feel and characteristics of Panavision C Series anamorphic lenses from the 1970s. Classic movies like Blade Runner, Star Wars, James Bond – The Spy Who Loved Me and Superman were all shot on Panavision C series lenses giving that ‘Classic Hollywood’ look we all know so well. This set of lenses is now available to buy from IGA. The set of lenses provides all the characteristics of these classic Panavision C series lenses, like: oval bokeh, blue horizontal flares, very narrow depth of field, soft warm skin tones, blooming highlights. The lenses are custom modified and designed by IGA lenses using Russian KMZ spherical lenses which have been modified with new internal coatings to the lens body, new oval fixed aperture and flare creator all inside the lens between the lens elements. These modified lenses are spherical and let you shoot the classic anamorphic look without having to de- squeeze the anamorphic image in post production, simply add 1:2.35 aspect ratio black bars in post production. The lenses ideal for use on 4K cameras by Pansonic, Sony, Canon, Red and Arri , taking off the harsh digital 4k clinical look and giving you the Classic 70s Hollywood Anamorphic look. These lenses have been developed and tested in conjunction with British Cinematographer/Director Andy Lee who is using them to shoot his new feature film.

Great RE-HOUSED LENS - Keep in mind that Rehousing lenses aren't cheap.
I've purchased the Helios 44-2 58mm vintage lens. Yes there are cheaper options out there, but I've yet to find one rehoused so beautifully. I saw a review where the person wrote ," seller is not telling you this product has been taken apart and tampered with." If you were to visit their site, you'd see that they are very CLEAR about their process to rehouse the lenses they have available. They also mention that it is "home-made," and that's not accurate in my opinion. A lot of the machinery they use to create the casing for the lenses...90 percent of people do not have at home. It performs like any great condition helios lenses, and are modded the way you'd like. If you want an anamor-fake filter or the inside painted, that's an option. Check their site if you want accurate information. Yes their are cheaper un-modded, non-rehoused helios lenses out there, but I've yet to see them like this that are available. They also offer cine-mods. If you don't care about cine-mods, or the housing, pick up another lens for less.
