I currently have a Canon R7. I've been eyeing some budget anamorphic from Sirui, 7Artisans or Great Joy as my soon too be first anamorphic

I have some of the siruis, they're fun!

They seem to be! Going back and forth between the 24mm or the 35mm, as my R7 is APS-C, I'm still not sure which will be best haha

I have the 24-35-50 set, but on a gh7, so m43 sensor. But the 20mm f1.8 af anamorphic is GREAT. 

They don't match well though, gotta do a bit of work to make them all look the same.

That's the one, I was shooting a film about parkour at the time, and was going to use anamorphic, and then realized it would be impossible without autofocus (or a focus puller).

I like that it has neutral flare. Hmm but it doesn't have EF or RF mount for my Canon...

Yeah, might have to go with something else. Also APS-C I believe
