Canon Beetle Blazar 32mm
Why we recommend this ▼
This three-lens set pairs a 1.33x anamorphic squeeze with constant T3.2 aperture across 32mm, 45mm, and 65mm focal lengths, covering full-frame Canon RF sensors in a lightweight 286g body. The lenses produce classic silver flares and oval bokeh, and a dedicated button rotates the mount 90° for instant vertical capture, while 0.8 mod gearing with 200° focus rotation ensures precise manual pulls. Indie filmmakers and social content creators who need a compact anamorphic kit for gimbal-mounted shoots and vertical-first platforms.
Canon RF-S RF-S 3.9mm f/3.5 STM Dual Fisheye 4mm
Why we recommend this ▼
The dual-fisheye design captures stereoscopic 3D 180° VR video with a 144° field of view, optimized for the EOS R7’s APS-C sensor via a 3.9mm focal length and STM autofocus. Bundled with a Pro Sling Backpack, its 72g weight and robust optical design make field shoots effortless. Ideal for VR content creators and wedding videographers needing immersive, Quest 2-compatible 3D footage without complex rigs.
Canon APSARA LUMIERE Simmod APSARA LUMIERE 75mm T1.4 Super Speed 75mm
Why we recommend this ▼
The T1.4 maximum aperture and 18-blade iris produce expressive bokeh and subtle highlight blooms with organic, controlled flares on full-frame Canon RF sensors. A 270° focus throw, 0.8 MOD gears, and a soft, low-profile focus mark light ensure precise manual operation, even though the lens weighs 780g and lacks stabilization. This cine lens excels for macro and portrait video work, scoring 51.7 and 45.5 respectively, but is not designed for travel due to its low 18.5 travel score.
