Panamorph A480SYS Automatic Anamorphic Lens Kit

Panamorph A480SYS is the Automatic Transport Version of the Panamorph system which includes the UH480 and the ATH1 Lens. The Automatic Transport (ATH1) moves the lens using a Remote Control (IR) or an Optional 12V trigger.

The Panamorph UH480

The UH480 is quite simply the most recommended anamorphic lens in the industry from both projector manufacturers and home theater dealers alike. It is the clear industry standard incorporating a patented hybrid cylindrical-prism design that easily installs in front of digital projectors, converting them from the standard 16:9 format to the true widescreen cinematic 2.40:1 screen aspect ratio.

The True Cinema Wide Screen Experience

Who are we to argue with the greatest film directors of our time?  If Spielberg, Lucas, Bay or Scorsese is also available on select wanted us to watch their work framed by black bars, they would have filmed them that way.  Over 70% of all major motion pictures are shot in the wider cinematic aspect ratio of approximately 2.35:1 to 2.40:1, meaning their width is 2.35:1 to 2.40:1 times their height.

The problem is that today’s home theater projectors and flat panels show Hollywood blockbusters and HDTV programs in a 16:9 aspect ratio, a width 1.78 times its height.  These beautiful, dramatic, and action-packed films are compressed to fit this smaller frame and sandwiched between two very noticeable and highly distracting black “letterbox” bars.
