About the Atlas Mercury 3-Lens Kit – 54/95/138mm – Metric
Making Cinematography More Personal: Atlas Lens Introduces New Focal Lengths to the Mercury Group Anamorphic Lens Line

Atlas is proud to announce the expansion of the Mercury Series 1.5x front anamorphic cinema lens line by introducing the Mercury 54mm/95mm/138mm.

Mercury Series Group II debuted three distinctive focal lengths: 54mm, 95mm, and 138mm. Each lens embodies the hallmark character and matching colour tones, retaining the Mercury Series’ vintage-inspired personality and consistent imaging excellence. These lenses offer full-frame coverage, a 1.5x squeeze ratio, enhanced bokeh, reduced physical size and weight, a dynamically unique geometric optical personality, and warmer vintage tones compared to the Orion Series – all while providing the same modern, mechanical conveniences demanded by professionals.

The Mercury Series full lineup presents a comprehensive range of anamorphic lenses, from the wide 36mm to the telephoto 138mm. It provides image-makers with new and distinctive choices for their cinematic toolkit. This diversity allows for a broad spectrum of storytelling, covering expansive landscapes to detailed close-ups.

Full-Frame Anamorphic. Imaging area of 36.7mm x 25.54mm covers full-frame sensors as well as 16:9 / 3:2 / 4:3 sensors, with easy delivery to 2:1 / 2.25:1 / 2.66:1 / 2.4:1.

1.5x Anamorphic Coefficient. In addition to the ease of supporting multiple delivery aspects, the Mercury Series 1.5x optical design allows for many of the visual characteristics image-makers love about the traditional 2x cinemascope format (oblong oval bokeh, barrel distortion, shallow depth of field) while also allowing for a meaningful size and weight reduction in the overall physical product design. This results in an ideal balance of compact size, weight, optical performance, and professional-focused usability across a variety of productions.

Optical Personality. Mercury Series features an exceptional optical performance with character, colour, and clarity while embracing the geometric personality of vintage front anamorphics: pleasing barrel distortion, enhanced painterly oval bokeh, and dynamic golden streak flares with the added benefits of zero mumps, excellent close-focus, and near-zero chromatic aberration.

Lightweight and Compact. Half the size and weight of most anamorphic lenses (see spec table)

Versatile and Easy to Use. Mercury’s robust, reliable mechanical design emphasizes professional usability with many on-set conveniences that come standard with all Atlas lenses. Arri PL mount makes it at home on professional cinema cameras as well as any mirrorless prosumer camera via PL adapter. Unified focus and iris position makes switching focal lengths on set quick and easy. Standardized gears and 95mm outer diameter allows for native use with various matte boxes and filters. All lenses also feature standardized 86mm screw-in filter threads.
