Hi.
I did a film using the Atlas Anamorphic lenses with the 12k. It’s called Taurus. It’s about to have its first screening at the Berlin film festival.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14921570/The sensor isn’t optimised for anamorphic.
All the Atlas lenses will cover the sensor no problem and the lens mount itself doesn’t change that performance.
All anamorphic lenses are kind of cropped because the height of the 12k sensor isn’t the same as a “full height” sensor.
This means in anamophic mode the camera becomes 8k and if you had it next to an Alexa that does have a full height sensor (not all Alexa’s do either) the full height sensor will have a wider field of view.
It’s not a huge difference. One other advantage of the Orions is that they also make one of the widest anamorphic lenses made, the 25mm T2. They only just started shipping this lenses so it might not be in every kit you find out there.
They’re great lenses, I was really impressed by them. I would go PL mount if you had a choice. Much better for using with remote motors.
