    I love the depth you go into on this one. It's really frustrating when people make educational content and then lightly skim over the difficult part you're actually interested in.

    Great content and production value Tito! Really awesome and deepdiving set of series you are running. Do you have any tips on preventing bokeh vignetting (cut off bokeh balls) when using discs? I am now trying to use slightly less than full vertical height for the oval shape, which seems to help. But no idea on what would be a safe margin.

    Thank you, Tim! Excellent question. It seems to change lens to lens, I've been trying 15% smaller ovals than full height, on the Sirui lenses I went 20% smaller to really improve that, and it means cutting a lot of light. :(

    Hi! I'm an "old", Italian, analogic photographer and I love this stuff and your beautiful channel! I got a question for you: I have an old Nikon 50 mm - f 1.8 and I use it on my Fujifilm X-A7 with an adapter ring. Do you think I can do modding this 50 mm lens in the same "anamorphic" way? And if so, does it worth the job? Thank's very much for your job! 🙏
