The Sirui 24mm f/2.8 Anamorphic 1.33x Lens is a wide-angle cine prime designed for creators and filmmakers who want to achieve a cinematic widescreen look with anamorphic character. Engineered for APS-C and Super 35 sensors, this lens delivers an expansive field of view with the signature anamorphic visuals—including oval bokeh, cinematic flares, and a 2.4:1 aspect ratio once de-squeezed.
With its 24mm focal length, this Sirui anamorphic lens is perfect for establishing shots, landscapes, architecture, vlogs, and dynamic filmmaking scenes where you want to capture more of the environment. Compact yet powerful, it combines professional anamorphic performance with a design that’s accessible for both indie creators and professional cinematographers.
Expansive Wide-Angle Cinematic View
Unlike traditional 24mm lenses, the Sirui 24mm f/2.8 Anamorphic Lens offers a 1.33x anamorphic squeeze factor, which transforms the standard 16:9 image into a 2.4:1 aspect ratio after de-squeezing. This gives you a cinemascope-style widescreen look without cropping or losing resolution.
The result is a true anamorphic perspective with a wide horizontal field of view, perfect for epic establishing shots, cityscapes, landscapes, and wide cinematic storytelling.
Iconic Anamorphic Visuals
Sirui lenses are known for their signature anamorphic look, and the 24mm f/2.8 delivers exactly that. Filmmakers get access to:
-
Oval-shaped bokeh that enhances depth and adds cinematic emotion.
-
Horizontal blue lens flares that create drama and visual interest.
-
A wide, cinematic frame that feels immersive and storytelling-driven.
Whether you’re shooting a short film, travel documentary, or commercial project, this lens brings a professional Hollywood-style aesthetic to your visuals.
Bright f/2.8 Aperture
The fast f/2.8 aperture ensures excellent performance in a variety of lighting conditions. It allows for shallow depth of field, letting you isolate subjects with smooth, oval-shaped background blur while maintaining that signature anamorphic flare.
This makes the Sirui 24mm a versatile tool for low-light shoots, handheld filmmaking, and run-and-gun productions.
