+2.0, +4.0, & +7.0 Achromatic DioptersMaximize magnification andimage clarity when focusingtightly on small objects—intabletop, miniature and flat fieldwork. These macro zoom attach-ments yield more close-up

range and preserve zoom capability. Stackable foreven greater magnification.

16:9 Widescreen AdapterCapture 16:9 images without sacri-ficing resolution. Instead of masking—like some switchable digitalcamcorders—this anamorphicadapter squeezes the 16:9 imageonto the 4:3 chip, utilizing every

pixel for a higher resolution image. Appearing verti-cally stretched in the viewfinder or on 4:3 monitor,the resulting image automatically spreads out to fillthe frame when fed to a 16:9 monitor. The adapterallows for partial zooming—to 2/3 of the range (fromwide toward telephoto) depending on available light.

1.33X Anamorphic Focusable Converter1.33X Anamorphic FocusableConverter allows the use ofyour camera’s full zoom range.Simply set up a telephotoshot, focus the anamorphic atthe extreme telephoto, andzoom to wide —all images

will stay in focus. It’s that easy. Get the full zoomrange of your existing lens at telephoto.This add-on isa true anamorphic adapter that captures the full 16:9image onto the 4:3 chip, utilizing every pixel for a fullresolution image. In most cameras, switching from4:3 to 16:9 works by cropping into the existing frame(top & bottom), so the resulting widescreen view isonly as wide as the 4:3 image. Century's adapter canreach to a full 33% wider angle of view, deliveringtrue wide angle widescreen.

The attachment is used with the camera in 4:3mode, and the resulting image appears stretchedvertically when viewed in the finder or on a 4:3monitor. Yet when displayed on a 16:9 monitor, theimage automatically spreads out to fill the frame.Note: with the camera in 16:9 mode adding the1.33X Anamorphic results in a true2.35 Cinemascope aspect ratio.
