Background
On my youtube channel, there’s a request to show my whole anamorphic setup. I’m glad to show but it consists of so many parts. So I write down all of them here.

Main Concept
- Keep it modularized.
- Unify the quick-release plate & baseplate to minimize adjustments on set.
- Use ratchet mini clamp lever (M5 L16) to tighten securely and fast.
