It’s the same reason I’ve always loved these lenses… and why I built our CINELUX Fujinon MK to DSMC2 adapter, the only one in the world that lets you mount these lenses to a RED DSMC2 camera. 🎥 Sources: – Russell Carpenter, ASC interview on The Go Creative Show – American Cinematographer and British Cinematographer features – Avatar: The Way of Water © 20th Century Studios & Lightstorm Entertainment Website: www.cinelux.co.uk Instagram:   / cinelux_ig   Facebook:   / cineluxofficial
