The thing about anamorphic lenses that appeal to videographers is the lens flare, the bokeh effects, the cinematic widescreen format, and the creative use of sensor space.
For example, by "squishing" the aspect ratio of a 2.35:1 on a 16:9 sensor, you are using the same focal length of a 50mm, for example, but getting a much wider area of coverage. However, cropping actually removes available sensor information, whereas the anamorphic lens actually "adds" information by first squishing the image and then stretching it back in post.
That's what gives the videographer such appeal to use an anamorphic lens. 50mm anamorphic lens may give you the same side angle as a 24mm standard lens but without the distortion of simply cropping a 24mm

Just purchased my very first DSLR and of course, it's the Pentax K-3. Had to start out at the top I guess. Looking forward to using this forum for all the third party lens reviews. I feel that that part of this website will be the only reason I come, lol.
