Lens Overview โ€” Atlas Lens Co. 32mm T2 2x Anamorphic Prime Lens

The Atlas Lens Co. Orion 32mm T2 is an anamorphic prime lens designed for Super 35 cinema cameras, mounted in the industry-standard PL mount. Built squarely for the Cinema / Video camera system, this lens is classified as a Standard focal length prime in the anamorphic category, offering a maximum aperture of T2 โ€” a fast, light-gathering opening well suited to low-light cinematic work and shallow depth-of-field imagery.

The lens is manual focus only, with no autofocus capability, which aligns with professional cinema production workflows where focus pullers operate dedicated follow-focus systems. At 2.2 kg, the Orion 32mm has a substantial, cinema-grade build that integrates naturally into rigged camera setups. The lens type is explicitly listed as Anamorphic, designed for Super 35-format sensors, making it a natural pairing with the wide range of cinema cameras that use that sensor standard.

There is no image stabilization, which is typical for cinema prime lenses intended for use on stabilized rigs, gimbals, or tripod-mounted systems. The PL mount is the professional cinema standard, providing a robust and secure connection to compatible camera bodies.
