1980s Lomo Round Front
Anamorphic Primes f2.5 75mm, 35mm and 50mm (L-R) in
Russian mounts. These anamorphic lenses are of the
preferred design where the spherical prime and
anamorphic elements are fixed. Focus is controlled by a
pair of spherical elements at the very front of the
lens. This design produces minimal image distortion
(compared to the square fronts) when pulling focus.
Minimum focus is 1 metre. Round fronts can be readily
converted to PL mount.

Round Front Anamorphic Primes 75mm, 35mm and 50mm. The
front of the 50mm and 75mm is about 100mm in diameter
1970s-80s Lomo Square
Front Anamorphic Primes, 35mm 2.8, 50mm 2.4 and 80mm
2.5. These lenses focus by the positional shift of the
spherical prime (in the traditional way) while the
spacing between anamorphic elements changes at the same
time. Minimum focus is 1 metre without additional
close-up lenses. The square fronts fit the Konvas 2M/8M
but 35mm will not fit a Kinor 35H. 
Rear view of Russian Lomo
Square Front Anamorphic Primes, 35mm, 50mm and 80mm, in
Russian mount. It is possible to convert these lenses to
PL mounts but it is much more complicated than
converting the round fronts

Lomo , rear of zoom anamorphic adaptors. These "small" rear of zoom anamorphic adaptors were often
used with the 25-250mm Lomo zoom, making it a 50-500mm
zoom with the loss of a bit more than one stop of light.
