The Tragic Demise Of The Technirama Prism-Based Anamorphic Lens

Although to the average person a camera lens is just that bit of glass you stick on the front of the camera to make stuff appear in focus, there’s a whole wide world out there of lens designs…

Hackaday

I finally succumbed to my girlfriend's demands of travelling with only one camera and one lens.

So I travelled for around 2 weeks in #Japan with the #Olympus #OMSystem OM-D E-M10 IV and the #Sirui 24 mm 1.33× #AnamorphicLens and came back with some really nice shots!

With most people presenting things in vertical format for consumption on phones, it was refreshing to get some #widescreen goodness.
