Cleaned out?

Anyone done any creative video?
Then you’ll know the feeling of getting cleaned out as you look at the much greater cost and complexity of workflow associated with it.
Spent a few hours today idly looking at the techniques and challenge of using anamorphic lenses. These are the lenses that get the immersive widescreen images used in many of the Hollywood blockbusters over the last 60 years. That lens technology is now available for use on everyday mirrorless cameras at a much lower cost than the stunningly expensive pro lenses that cost up to £40k each. The more you look at what’s involved you can understand why they are so expensive. Ouch.
Need a challenge, but I’ll stick with cleaning the car using these low tech devices.
