Description and Reviews

From Blazar:

The Apex 1.33x T1.8 AF is the world’s first autofocus anamorphic lens, featuring a focus-by-wire system for seamless switching between autofocus and manual focus. Designed to work with an APS-C sensor.

The Apex 1.33x is engineered for precision and speed, featuring real-time tracking for seamless focus during dynamic scenes and advanced eye-tracking that locks onto a subject’s eyes with exceptional accuracy.

With AF/MF focus mode switch, the Apex allows creators to easily switch between fast, precise autofocus and a cinema-standard 0.8 mod focus ring for smooth, manual control. Perfect for both dynamic shoots and controlled cinematic shots.

Weighing just 717g (1.58 lb), the Apex lens is perfect for solo creators and run-and-gun shooting, offering cinematic visuals in a portable, easy-to-use design.
