L-Rumors, the dedicated news outlet covering the L-Mount Alliance (Panasonic, Leica, Sigma, etc.), has published the first leaked product images of Sirui’s next-generation ‘Saturn V2 Full-Frame Anamorphic’ lens lineup—drawing strong interest from video creators who loved the original lightweight Saturn series.
Based on the leaked images, the new Saturn V2 lineup builds on the success of the original ultra-lightweight 1.6x Saturn lenses while delivering key upgrades in optical design, build quality, and ergonomic control.
Here is a breakdown of the key leaked details and features of the newly revealed Sirui Saturn V2 full-frame anamorphic series.
1. Upgraded Anamorphic Squeeze & Optical Design
- Maximized Cinematic 2.39:1 / 2.4:1 Framing: Features refined optical elements optimized for full-frame sensors, producing creamy oval bokeh and signature horizontal flares (blue/neutral) with higher precision.
- Improved Sharpness & Lens Coatings: Aberration control at wide-open apertures has been significantly improved over the first-generation Saturn models, yielding cleaner, more organic cinematic flare characteristics in backlit conditions.
2. Rig-Ready Form Factor & Standardized Gear Rings
- Retaining the Ultra-Light Carbon/Aluminum Build: Maintains a compact and lightweight footprint ideal for gimbals, drones, and handheld rigs, supporting featherweight full-frame cinema setups.
- Unified Gear Positioning & Standard 0.8M Rings: Standardizes focus and aperture ring placement across the series, allowing seamless lens swaps when using follow focus systems or wireless focus motors.
3. Multi-Mount Support Including L-Mount
- Broad Mirrorless Mount Compatibility: Expected to launch simultaneously in L-Mount (for Panasonic LUMIX S series and Leica), alongside Sony E, Canon RF, DJI DL, and Nikon Z mounts.
✍️ Editor's Note
"Sirui previously brought full-frame anamorphic filmmaking to the masses with the original 'Saturn' series by stripping away the heavy bulk, and now they are playing an even better card with the V2! Combining signature anamorphic flare, cinematic wide aspect ratios, and a gimbal-friendly lightweight build, this series looks to be an unbeatable value-for-money anamorphic solution for indie filmmakers and music video creators using mirrorless bodies or compact cinema rigs!"
