🎬 Helios Auto 135mm F2.8 Cine Mod Telephoto Prime Lens for Fujifilm X (FX) – Neutral Anamorphic Bokeh | Full Frame Coverage
Transform your Fujifilm X camera into a cinematic powerhouse with this professionally modified Helios Auto 135mm F2.8 Cine Mod, specially prepared by TerPhoto for professional filmmakers and cinematographers.
Originally manufactured in Japan during the late 1970s and 1980s, the Helios Auto 135mm F2.8 belongs to the generation of premium Japanese manual-focus telephoto lenses that became well known for their sharp optical performance, beautiful color rendering and smooth focus mechanics. This particular cine conversion is based on the original Helios Auto optical design while adding professional cinema features required for modern productions.
The lens has been fully disassembled, professionally cleaned, adjusted, re-lubricated and calibrated, then permanently adapted for Fujifilm X (FX) mount while maintaining full-frame image coverage.
Unlike conventional spherical lenses, this custom modification features a neutral oval bokeh that recreates the aesthetic character of anamorphic optics without requiring expensive anamorphic lenses or de-squeeze workflows. Simply crop your footage to 2.35:1 by adding cinematic black bars during post-production and enjoy a convincing widescreen anamorphic appearance.
For professional video production, the aperture has been de-clicked, providing completely smooth exposure transitions during recording. Both the focus ring and aperture ring are equipped with industry-standard 0.8 follow focus gears, allowing seamless compatibility with professional follow focus systems.
Optically, the glass is in excellent condition, remaining free from fungus, haze, scratches and fog. The lens body shows only light signs of previous use consistent with age while remaining fully functional and professionally serviced.
Whether you’re shooting narrative films, music videos, documentaries, interviews or commercial productions, this lens delivers beautiful subject separation, compressed perspective and distinctive cinematic rendering with an elegant oval bokeh rarely found in conventional telephoto lenses.
