Mercury Prime for a Vintage Anamorphic Look
Designed by cinematographers for professional videographers, the Mercury 36mm T2.2 1.5x Anamorphic Prime Lens is part of the compact and lightweight Mercury Series from Atlas Lens Co. This series offers native full-frame coverage, enhanced bokeh, near-zero chromatic aberration, and a buttery vintage look that is warmer than that of the Orion series. The ARRI PL-mount Mercury series includes 36, 42, and 72mm primes plus 54 and 95mm and one telephoto focal length still in the pipeline.
Anamorphic Features in a Compact Form
Each Mercury lens provides the oval bokeh, pleasant barrel distortion, and shallow depth of field of the Atlas Orion 2x anamorphic primes but in a housing that is about half the size and weight of most pro anamorphic primes. The more compact size reduces fatigue and enables you to get closer to the action.
