Orion 28mm

Continuing its legacy of excellence, the Orion Series 28mm takes center stage as the latest addition to Atlas Lens Co.'s catalog of anamorphic cinema lenses. Following the successful launch of the world’s widest currently shipping front anamorphic lens: the Orion 21mm— Atlas Lens Co. are continuing to expand cinematographers’ creative palette with the new 28mm Orion T2. The Orion 28mm T2 is optimized for use on both film and digital.

Orion Series

Orion Series lenses combine the aesthetic of vintage anamorphic lenses with modern convenience, adaptability, and dependability.
Orion Series 2X anamorphic prime lenses are built to be a universal filmmaking tool — perfect for the latest professional film and digital cinema cameras with native PL mount or just as easily adapted to Canon EF-based cinema cameras.

Orion Series lenses deliver the striking beauty of painterly waterfall bokeh, disproportionate breathing, and signature yet controlled flare.

At the heart of Atlas Lens Co. Orion Series is a true front-anamorphic group. They offer vintage optical characteristics to include in your cinematic storytelling toolkit with a mechanical functionality that won't leave you feeling confounded by compromise. 

Orion Series Anamorphic Lenses are built to be a universal filmmaking tool - ready for the latest Digital Cinema PL mount cameras like Arri Alexa or Red DSMC2, Canon mount cinema cameras like the C300, or adapted Sony E-Mount or Micro 4/3 cameras, and are even designed to accommodate the rotating mirror shutter of 35mm Motion Picture Film Cameras following Arri PL Flange requirements.
Whether your project requires you to shoot digital or film, the Orion Series T2 has the coverage you need and boasts a larger than S35mm Image Circle. 

Why anamorphic?

The same vertical field-of-view of an equivalent spherical focal length gives you twice the horizontal field-of-view (2X). Capture wide-angle images with the shallow depth-of-field of a telephoto prime lens, creating a uniquely cinematic sense of depth and perspective magnification.

Anamorphic for all.

Atlas Lens Co. wanted to create the lenses they wanted for their own films – optically pleasing yet mechanically robust – and share anamorphics with more image-makers everywhere.
