[WONTFIX] Stretching view for anamorphic lenses for recording. Preview possible.

[ruccatala]

Just this. Could be possible to do a live view of the image stretched vertically for those who use anamporphic lenses (not me haha). Soemthing like the fisheye view for Samyang 8mm.

See you!

It will be fantastic to have a real support of anamorphic lenses.
In 550D you Can shot in 4:3 crop mode at 640x480. It's fantastic if you could shot 1920x1080 but in 4:3. So, with a 2X lens, you have a real 2.35:1 video without any cropping. Wow!

How can 1920x1080 ever be in 4:3?

For preview it may be possible at some point. For recording, no.

Oh yea, this is my dream too. Customizable frame aspect without crop. 4:3 pixel aspect on 1920x1080 it's not possible without distortion loss, only at 1920x1440 or 1440x1080. But the 2nd option we can do now with crop, don't need ML. So need some information what is the maximum resolution that with work on 5Dmk2, and possible to change custom video aspect and how to combinate them.


The point is that there are 2073600 pixels and lose none of it, but we want to vary the aspect ratio from 16:9 to any size.


It's my video, taken with 2x. I think it's nice, but too wide for common displays. It's 3,55:1 aspect but it would look nicer on 2,35:1.

Hi Alex. Now that we Can shoot real anamorphic in raw, with 4:3 aspect ratio (for few frames...sigh), is it possible now to shoot  4:3 anamorphic in "normal", h264 mode?

Just crop it in post. The specs in bluray for fullHD 4:3 is 1440x1080, because the width shrinks obv.

Sure, but it's not for the 380 pixels than for the field of view... Thanks
