BEST Budget Anamorphic Lens - BLAZAR APEX 50mm T1.8 1.33X Anamorphic

The very first autofocus anamorphic lens from Blazar. My first impressions and thoughts (from a solo creator). Got my first anamorphic lens from Great Joy (now known as BLAZAR) back in 2022. No affiliation, got all products with my own money.
