The Atlas Orion SE 80mm T2 is a Silver Edition anamorphic lens ideal for -ups, cinematic portraits, and compositions requiring elegant background compression. Designed for feature film productions, premium series, and high-end advertising, it combines iconic big-screen aesthetics with modern performance and reliable mechanics standardized within the Orion series.
Thanks to its 2x anamorphic compression, theAtlas Orion SE 80mm T2 offers an expanded horizontal field of view while maintaining extremely low distortion. Precise airspace tuning, combined with specific Silver Edition coatings, produces anamorphic flares , delivering a consistent and distinctive visual signature.
Silver Edition Optical SignatureAtlas Orion SE 80mm T2
At its widest aperture of T2, the lens produces a pleasing spherical aberration glow that enhances skin textures and adds emotional depth to scenes. Stopping down to T2.8 or widerresults in particularly sharp performance on flat terrain, ensuring excellent detail reproduction and optimal image uniformity.
The Silver Edition philosophy promotes dynamic interaction with light sources, allowing for the creation of pronounced anamorphic flares while maintaining a balanced color rendering.
Robust and homogeneous mechanical construction
The lens incorporates a 14-blade iris that produces an organic and gradual bokeh. All optical elements are made of glass (no plastic components), ensuring stability and durability. The body is machined from anodized aluminum with a scratch-resistant coating, suitable for demanding shooting environments.
Like the rest of the Orion series, the focus and iris positions are unified to minimize adjustments when changing lenses. The 136mm outer diameter ensures native compatibility with a wide range of professional matte boxes. The 80mm focal length also accepts 105mm screw-in filters , facilitating integration onto drones or gimbals.
Practical examplesAtlas Orion SE 80mm T2
In feature films, theAtlas Orion SE 80mm T2 is particularly well-suited to cinematic portraits and emotional scenes requiring shallow depth of field and smooth background compression. In commercials and music videos, it effectively isolates the subject while utilizing Silver Edition flares to enhance the art direction. In premium broadcast productions, it serves as a strategic focal length for amplifying the visual impact of -ups while maintaining the aesthetic consistency of the Orion range.
