A new era in HD Electronic Cinematography (HD-EC) has dawned. Canon's revolutionary ACV-235 Anamorphic Converter is the world's first anamorphic lens converter developed for the 2/3" image size format. This converter mounts between the master lens and camera & makes it possible to record a CinemaScope size (aspect ratio 2.35:1) image with an HD-EC camera. By optically compressing this image to a standard HD aspect ratio of 16:9 (1.78:1), the ACV-235 provides HD cinematographers with a simple and inexpensive path to full, theater-sized projection. The Canon ACV-235 offers a drastic improvement over previous methods of adapting HD cinematography to CinemaScope size, which typically involved cutting the base image's upper and lower sides - decreasing resolution in the process. With easy operation and compatibility with both HD primes and zoom lenses, the ACV-235 portrays the full brilliance of HD electronic cinematography. The ACV-235 Anamorphic Converter is another HD revolution from Canon.
