The Epic 65mm T2.8 Macro 1.33X PL and Epic 135mm T2.4 1.33X PL have joined an anamorphic seven-lens line-up from Viltrox, now ranging from 25mm to 135mm.
The 65mm macro is particularly notable as traditionally, macro and anamorphic have been separate looks. Viltrox now offers it in one package, claiming the “revolutionary optical design expands the microscopic world into professional cinema-grade widescreen imagery”. It can go from extreme close-ups to wide shots, featuring 1:4 magnification, edge-to-edge clarity, smooth focus control, suppressed focus breathing and a 290° focus throw for dynamic macro sequences.
Viltrox boasts “bold compression and subject isolation” for the Epic 135mm. It offers a long reach and spatial compression to separate the subject from distracting backgrounds.
Every full-frame lens in the set shares consistent gear placement for easy swaps, uniform colour reproduction, and three distinct flare styles (Clean, Silver and Blue) for customisable visual signatures.
