Matthew Poliquin Posted August 5, 2004 Share Posted August 5, 2004 Does anyone know which Panavision Anamorphic lenses were used to film Unbreakable. I know that it is in the Dec. 2000 AC, but I can't get my hands on that issue. Thank You Matthew Poliquin DP/AC Santa Monica Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member David Mullen ASC Posted August 6, 2004 Premium Member Share Posted August 6, 2004 The articles says they used Primo anamorphics (primes and zoom) although they were probably carrying some C-Series for steadicam shots -- in a photo of the director holding a lens finder, there's a 50mm C-Series mounted in it.

I remember that photo. Whenever some says they shot with Primo Anamorphics, in most cases they used some other lenses as well. Especially since the Primos go only up to 100m (which in anamorphic is not that long a lens), so for telephoto lenses one needs to choose a different model. Most people's lens of choice would probably be the E-Series 180mm, which is great for close-ups. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
