    290-350mm ISCO lens -- is that an anamorphic lens

    I'm wondering if a 290-350mm ISCO lens is an anamorphic lens.

    ISCO makes a great many different lenses.
    I have owned an ISCO I and now ISCO II anamorphic lenses, but I bought them specifically for HT use. ISCO also made several anamorphic lenses for movie theater projectors, but you will have to do some more research to determine if the one that you've seen is a good lens for home theater use.

    Most professional theater ISCO lenses have a very long throw.

The term is inspired by the concept of optical lenses used in optics to manipulate light. The primary purpose of an acoustic lens is to modify the propagation characteristics of sound waves, enabling control over their distribution and spatial behavior. Acoustic lenses can be implemented in various forms, including physical structures, signal processing...

      Anamorphic Optoma Lens or Panamorph Lens?
      by speakerboy
      Hi, I have an opportunity to buy a used and well discounted demo Optoma lens and sled. I emailed Panamorph and they mentioned that the Optoma is a bit older and the current Panamorphs have some improvements. What they are, I don't know yet. I'm still waiting to hear back.
