63rd Manhattan Beach Grand Prix
Our latest cinematic cycling film is now live.
Instead of using conventional sports lenses, we chose to film the entire event with SIRUI Venus anamorphic lenses—a decision that gave the race a distinctly cinematic look and feel.
Why would you choose anamorphic lenses for a fast-paced, live sporting event where there are no second takes?
We’ll answer that in an upcoming Field Note, where we break down the creative thinking behind the decision. Until then, watch the reel and experience the results for yourself.
