Re: [Frameworks] eyemo question

The Eyemo is not reflex, so you won't be able to see through the anamorphic lens to make sure it's level. If you have a model that has a side finder it might be kinda possible but a bit of a nightmare.

You won't find anamorphic lenses in eyemax mount.

There are a very few eyemo's out there that have been modified as reflex for use as crash cams by hollywood but they are VERY VERY rare. Far more common is eyemo's without any viewfinder at all, which is not entirely useful!

I suspect a 2 perf conversion would be expensive enough that you might question whether the eyemo is the right camera for it!
