Hi everybody,
i am currently looking for a vintage cine zoom lens somewhere between 10 and 150mm for an old school film look and some sweet and unique imperfections.
after my research on the internet and in this community i find the Lomo FOTON 37-140 rather attractive and there are some offers on ebay in my price range (no more than 4k $)
the thing i dont really get (since i am new to the whole lens game) is: the Lomo Foton 37-140 is often presented to be an anamorphic lens and videos like this
show beautiful anamorphic results. than again sometimes there is no word of "anamorphic" like in this offer: https://www.ebay.com/itm/Lomo-FOTON-37-140-37-140mm-T4-4-ARRI-PL-Mount-RED-Dragon-URSA-Alexa-F5-F3-3/372126254975?hash=item56a474077f:g:KywAAOSwa0VZ~a8C
so i guess lomo fotons are not all the same.
is there some kind of anamorphic adapter i can combine with the non-anamorphic foton to get results like in the video link above or would i have to go way more expensive and buy for example this one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/LOMO-FOTON-A-ANAMORPHIC-ZOOM-37-140mm-f-3-5-Lens-w-ARRI-Arriflex-PL-Mount-1/372194587842?hash=item56a886b4c2:g:1U8AAOSw-RFaW29l
has someone experience with the foton with or without the anamorphic feature?
are there any other old glasses that fit my description you can recommend?
anamorphic look is not a must for me but it would be a giant bonus if it fits my price range.
thank you so much for your time,
Lukas
