🎬 Minolta MD Rokkor 45mm F2 Cine Mod Prime Lens for Sony E-mount (Oval / “Anamorphic-Style” Bokeh)
Offered here is a classic Minolta MD Rokkor 45mm F2 “pancake” prime, professionally adapted for modern filmmaking with a Sony E-mount conversion and cine-ready operation. This lens is spherical, but it has been modified to produce a neutral oval bokeh that emulates the anamorphic vibe (oval highlights / separation) without any de-squeeze workflow. For the widescreen look, simply add 2.35:1 (2.39:1) black bars in post-production and enjoy a cinematic presentation with vintage character.
Built for video use, this setup is designed to drop straight onto your rig:
- Oval-bokeh modification for an anamorphic-inspired rendering while remaining spherical
- 2x follow focus gears installed: one on the focus ring and one on the aperture ring for precise control
- 80mm OD cine lens hood included, featuring a 77mm front filter thread for practical filtration and matte-box-friendly use
Optics (Glass): Under inspection, the elements show no deep scratches or edge chips. There are light cleaning marks and minor vintage fungus/wear present; these are cosmetic at the glass surface and should not have a measurable impact on real-world image (no meaningful loss of sharpness/contrast expected in normal shooting).
Mechanics / Body: The housing is structurally solid with only minor wear, which will not affect on work with this lens. Focus and aperture operation are normal for a cine-prepped manual lens, with no play, binding, or functional faults observed.
This lens is a strong choice for filmmakers who want a compact prime with classic Minolta rendering, improved cine handling, and stylized bokeh for music videos, narrative scenes, portraits/interviews, and commercial work.
