and Super 16mm and Anamorphic and the TV version of the MDF

and indispensable tool for creating and pre-planning shot.
Small and lightweight, the Kish PDF features superior quality
optics and a convenient "click stop" adjustable
ring for most popular aspect ratios; including Academy, TV,
1.66, HDTV, 1.85, Wide Screen and 2.4 anamorphic. Weighing
just 8.5 ounces (250 grams) and measuring a modest 3.85 inches
(98mm), the PDF is shipped in a soft lens pouch and comes
with an attractive silvertone herringbone neck chain.
The
Zoom Mesmerizer is a versatile piece of optical engineering
designed as a full-feature effects adapter capable of theatrical-quality
images for the 35mm cine camera. It is easily mounted between
the prime lens and the camera (similar to that of a range
extender). In this position, the lens' focus and zoom functions
are unimpeded and operate normally.
Cinelux
is a selection of color filters from the Roscolux range which
are produced in rolls of 48in. x 25ft. (122cm x 7.62m). Cinelux
is especially suited for motion picture and television production
where larger lighting fixtures are often used, or where color
is often mounted on frames in front of lighting fixtures.
These colors have been developed by Rosco over the past 87
years, and the dyes are among the most heat stable available.
