Comments[edit]
This is a Single8-camera!
Jörg's comment:
I've just attached my Bell&Howell-2x-anamorphot (made by Kowa, rear thread is 54mm) to my Z450 with a simple 46mm-to-series-VII-filter-adapter (from eBay: 4,10 EUR incl. shipping ;-) ). This works great - the camera still isn't too heavy. Unfortunately the camera's filter thread rotates when focusing. Hence keeping the anamorphot correctly adjusted will be difficult. Due to vignetting the zoom-range is reduced to approx. 16mm to 34mm.
Testing this setup (still without film) I had to admit that the camera's viewfinder could be much larger.
