Description
Introducing the Atlas Lens Co. Orion SE Full Set
The Atlas Lens Co. Orion SE Full Set comprises six Silver Edition anamorphic lenses: 32mm, 40mm, 50mm, 65mm, 80mm, and 100mm, available with either imperial or metric scales, depending on your choice at the time of purchase. Designed for demanding film and broadcast productions, this series retains the modern performance and mechanical reliability that distinguish the Orion range, while celebrating the aesthetics of the golden age of cinema.
The Silver Edition lenses benefit from precise airspace tuning and bold coatings specific to this edition. This combination produces expressive, responsive, and chromatically refined anamorphic flares , offering a unique visual signature. Each lens incorporates a 14-blade iris for organic bokeh and smooth highlight transitions.
Unified optical and mechanical design
The design is standardized across all six focal lengths to ensure consistency during filming. Focus and iris positions are unified, minimizing adjustments when changing focal lengths. All elements are made of glass (no plastic components), and the lens body is constructed of anodized aluminum with a scratch-resistant coating.
The 136mm outer diameter allows for native use with many matte boxes and professional accessories. The 40mm to 100mm focal lengths accept 105mm screw-in filters, facilitating integration on drones or gimbals. The distance between the flange and the rear of the lens reaches 18.45mm at the longest focal length (32mm T2).
Distinctive optical performance
At T2, the lenses produce a pleasing spherical aberration glow at maximum aperture. Stopping down to T2.8 or widerdelivers sharp performance on flat terrain. The 2x anamorphic compression ensures an immersive horizontal field of view with extremely low distortion, even at the widest focal lengths.
The minimum focusing distance goes down to about 0.45 meters (depending on focal length), allowing for a shallow depth of field and great creative versatility.
Practical casesFull Set Orion SE from Atlas Lens Co
In feature film production, the Atlas Lens Co. Orion SE Full Set ensures aesthetic consistency across the entire project thanks to its uniform mechanical design.
