Blazar shows sneak peaks of Apex 1.33 Autofocus Anamorphic Lenses - Includes a Canon RF option!

I know what you are all thinking.
Did Canon come to an agreement with Blazar to use their mount? We're actually not sure. At least not from what I've seen personally.

Check out CineD's first look on their site and/or youtube

This honestly looks promising for those solo run and gun shooters trying to not only get cinema glass but as well as anamorphic flares and features.... oh and did we mention it's an autofocus option for video creators??

According to the video the lens comes in Canon RF, Sony E, Nikon Z, and FUJIFILM X mounts and now after further updates has added L Mount.
The only options to begin the set at the moment are 35mm and 50mm options with a 1.33x squeeze and both at T1.8

According to the video they were able to add more squeeze like characteristics using barrel distortion so it feels more than the 1.33x that it actually is.

If Canon really did come to an agreement with them here, this will be a huge game changer for some of us that want those beautiful anamorphic looks in their content without having to worry about Manual focus.
