โ€ŒOverview

Everyone loves anamorphics with their cool highlights and bokehโ€ฆ except match-movers, where complex distortions, aspect changes during focus pulls, and subtle mumps effects (hidden but not gone) are common.

Fortunately, SynthEyes brings serious tools to solving anamorphic shots:

๏‚ท Full 23-parameter anamorphic lens modelโ€”two versions plus two versions of a simplified 14-parameter model.

๏‚ท Advanced animate-at-keyframe parameter solving for jitter-free solves on focus pulls.

๏‚ท A direct frontal attack on mumps issues: anamorphic distance

solving.

Weโ€™ll work through each of these in the following sections.

Anamorphic distance is a property of anamorphic lenses and certain to blow your mind, once you see what itโ€™s about and how it explains a variety of anamorphic effects. Itโ€™s a huge thing to now acknowledge; its effects canโ€™t be removed by any 2-D โ€œlens distortionโ€, because itโ€™s a complete change to the basic perspective transform!
