The OFG Customs LONG SHOT is an optical adapter that allows you to use Full Frame/Large Format/Vista Vision lenses, and retain the full field of view, depth of field, and character of those lenses when using 16mm cameras such as the ARRI 416, ARRI SR3, AATON Xtera, XTR Prod, etc.
This opens up tons of lens options for 16mm film, as well as the ability to capture a completely new look.

In addition to spherical lenses, the Long Shot allows you to take advantage of Full Frame 1.5x anamorphic lenses, giving you the character, depth of field, and bokeh of Full Frame anamorphic lenses. On Super 16mm film, this results in de-squeezed images with a final aspect ratio of 2.49:1, which means minimal cropping to get to the classic 2:40:1 anamorphic aspect ratio.
The Long Shot has swappable mounts. It comes standard with a combo LPL/PL mount, but there are also mounts for Canon EF, Nikon F, Canon FD, BNCR, OCT-19, etc. Mounts are shimmed to specification, so that all lenses will have accurate focus marks. The Long Shot has 3-Pin Fischer ports with remote R/S, as well as 2-Pin ports to power accessories. It has a full cage for attaching accessories like focus motors, monitors, EVFs, top handles, range finders, and more.
The Long Shot has its own internal exposure control that does not affect depth of field or cause any color shift. This means you most likely will not have to worry about using ND filters for brighter scenes, which will also save you time on set. It allows you to do iris racks without affecting your depth of field, for example, in a scene where the camera has to travel from day interior to day exterior.
The OFG Customs LONG SHOT is a rental-only item, and it can’t be purchased.
