Anamorphic

A 1.33x anamorphic lens is a special type of lens that squeezes a wider field of view onto a camera sensor, which is later "de-squeezed" to produce a cinematic widescreen image. The 1.33x squeeze factor is designed to give you a 2.35:1 aspect ratio when shooting on a standard 16:9 sensor.

Wider field of view: It captures more of the background, adding cinematic context without needing to step back.

Unique lens flares: Anamorphic lenses often produce horizontal flares, giving portraits a stylized, filmic look.

Oval bokeh: Out-of-focus background elements have an oval shape, adding depth and a dreamy aesthetic to your subject.

Cinematic compression: The slight horizontal squeeze can flatter facial features, offering a subtly stylized look.
