Hey everyone, I've just bought a Quarz 1 x 8S-2 and I've seen that it can do anamorphic super 8. Does anyone here know what lens would be best and adapters I would need to fit it on the camera?

Morning.
The real beauty of this mid 70’s camera was that the lenses were interchangeable and if memory serves me right they came with two lenses. Anyhow, with a little ingenuity you should be able to mount a suitable anamorphic lens directly to the camera using some sort of step down ring. It has been done by many in the past but look for one of the better quality lenses perhaps physically offering up a lens to the camera to see what fitting a specific type might entail.
Keep us posted.
