The vintage LOMO Round Front Anamorphic lenses are an iconic set of Soviet-era cinema lenses, renowned for their bold anamorphic character, rich flares, and classic widescreen aesthetic. With a 2x squeeze factor, these lenses produce beautifully oval bokeh, pronounced barrel distortion, and organic focus falloff, creating a distinctly cinematic look that has been cherished by filmmakers for decades. Their dreamy, slightly lower-contrast rendering and unique blue anamorphic flares make them ideal for capturing atmospheric, nostalgic, and stylized visuals, perfect for feature films, music videos, and high-end commercial work seeking an authentic vintage feel.

Built with mechanical precision and rugged metal housings, our LOMO Round Front Anamorphics are available in classic focal lengths 35mm, 50mm, 75mm, and 150mm offering a versatile range for storytelling. While they retain the charm and imperfections of vintage glass, these lenses have been carefully maintained and rehoused for modern reliability and smoother focus mechanics, making them easier to use on contemporary productions. Whether you’re aiming for a gritty, retro aesthetic or a lush, cinematic anamorphic look, the LOMO Round Front lenses deliver unmatched character and depth, bringing a unique, handcrafted visual signature to any project. Fun fact: the original HAWK C Series anamorphics were rehoused Lomo Round Fronts.
