All About 16:9 Anamorphic Lens Adapter

[Lou Bruno]

I own a VX2100. The anamorphic mode looks horrendous on my daughter's 52" plasma.............horrendous.

Note, this mode does produce "correct" anamorphic footage, and NOT letterboxed footage (despite the appearance of the letterbox in the viewfinder and screen for framing purposes).

There is a slight loss in vertical resolution, but it's small, so: try it first, before you commit to a decision.
