The extensive variety of cinema projection lenses is complemented with additional accessories which support many practical projection applications optimally:

ES-Cinelux Anamorphic 2x
 

ES-Cinelux Anamorphic 2x

This anamorphic lens is designed as an integral component of the
ES-Cinelux Anamorphic lenses, but can also be subsequently attached to the Super-Cinelux 35 lenses from 42.5 to 100 mm focal length for
35 mm film as required to obtain a horizontal widening of the projecting image by a factor of 2 to show wide-screen films.
 

Adapter needed for the connection

Cinelux M65

Cinelux M65 (WA/Tele Vario Conversion Lens)

This multi-function converter with variably adjustable magnification can be used either as a wide-angle or a tele converter (you reverse it to change function).

Geometrical dimensions

As a tele converter 1.4x to 1.65x it serves to ob-tain longer focal length than the maximum 180 mm of the standard lenses for long projection distances, e.g. with a 140 mm lens a steplessly selectable focal length
of 201.8 to 225.8 mm can be achieved.
 

As a wide-angle converter 0.63x to 0.70x it creates a wide-angle combination. For example, with a 65 mm base lens a wide-angle lens combination is created with steplessly selectable focal length between
40.2 and 45.6 mm. This lens combination has a longer mechanical length than standard wide-angle lenses. This increased mechanical length can be used to solve problems of vignetting by an obstacle.
 

Combinations and adapter
 

Extension

Extension

This lens attachment transposes the exit pupil of the lens toward the front thanks to its additional glass distance without having even the slightest negative effect on the imaging. It is used with lenses which have a short focal length and which are needed with a very large screen with only a short projection dis-tance. The Extension avoids partial vignetting of the wide image which can e.g. be caused by parts of the projector which extend into the beam path, parts of other lenses in the same lens revolver or by too nar-row a window.
 

There are three different Extension versions for the Super-Cinelux 35 lenses: SK 4026 for focal length 24 mm; SK 4027 for focal length 26 mm; and SK 4031 for focal lengths from 28 to 50 mm.
 

Note: No adapter is required to connect the Extension.

Keystone Corrector
with anamorphic lens

Keystone Corrector

The Keystone Corrector allows trapezoidal distortion to be eliminated in projectors with a 4" lens mount; this distortion occurs when the projection does not take place at right angles to the screen, e.g. with oblique down-ward projection. It is used for cinema lenses with a tube diameter of 70.65 mm in place of the 4" adapter. It cannot be used in projectors with lens revolvers.
 

  Geometrical dimensions

If the projector is not central with respect to the screen, but has a lateral offset, (additional) distortion occurs with a larger image height on the screen side further away from the projector; there is also a visible loss of focus on both sides if the lens has been focused to the center of the screen. This error can also be eliminated using the Keystone Corrector; it only has to be installed rotated such that the lens does not move down in a perpendicular manner when shifted, but obliquely in the direction toward the further distant side of the screen. The equalization performed with the Keystone Corrector does not only ensure that plunging lines and the horizontal axes diverging toward the further distant screen side again extend precisely perpendicular or horizontally, but also provides a very uniform focus over the whole screen format.

The Schneider software “Theater Design Pro” can calculate the required shift from the projector position with respect to the screen and the focal length of the lens.

Adapters and Extension Tubes

A variety of adapters are available for the combination of anamorphic attachments or of the WA/Tele Converter Cinelux M65 with specific
base lenses of the Super-Cinelux and Cinelux-Ultra series and for the adaptation of the tube diameter to larger diameters of certain projectors. Furthermore, extension tubes are available to extend the mechanical design length (required e.g. for some lenses for mounting in the Keystone Corrector).

Note: In order to avoid vignetting, we recommend the combination with the base lens without its front ring.
