Lens Overview — Atlas Lens Co. Anamorphic Prime Lens Set

The Atlas Lens Co. Mercury Series Anamorphic Prime Lens Set is a professional cinema lens collection designed for expert filmmakers working in demanding production environments. Built around a PL Mount configuration, this set covers a focal length range from 36mm to 138mm, offering a versatile spread of wide-angle primes suited to narrative, documentary, and commercial work.

Each lens in the set features a maximum aperture of f/2.2, providing solid light-gathering capability for controlled or low-light shooting scenarios. The lenses are classified as Super 35 format, aligning them with industry-standard cinema camera platforms that use this widely adopted sensor size. Focus is entirely manual, which is standard practice in professional cinema production where focus pullers work with precision follow focus systems.

With a 95mm filter thread, the Mercury Series accommodates large-diameter cinema filters, including polarizers and diffusion options common in high-end production. The set weighs 2.1kg in total, reflecting the robust build quality expected of professional anamorphic glass. No image stabilization is present, consistent with the expectation that cinema rigs are typically mounted on stabilized support systems.

The Mercury Series delivers the distinctive anamorphic rendering that cinematographers seek for premium visual storytelling.
