Bell & Howell had an 2x anamorphic lens, part number 204440, which screwed directly into the basic 2" (50mm) lens on a TQIII.
But, here's the bad news, I've never seen one, other than in the Operators Manual.
Perhaps Phil Sheard at Classic Home Cinema might be able to help, it's worth a 'phone call.

thank you both.
I have been in touch with classic home cinema - he's unable to find one at the moment but thinks he has one "somewhere"
I was hoping to find one for less than £250 though! either that or i need to start thinking of this as a much more serious hobby! [Big Grin]

I cannot see any reference on the eBay site that this lens will screw into a prime lens.
It might, of course, do so with the relevant step up/step down ring.

thanks, that is the one that Clyde also pointed to. Do you any idea if it would also fit an Elf ST- 1 h?
I bought some films at today's film fair - hoping none are scope! ha ha

Will Elmoscope I fit to this prime lens? I dont have B&H or Elf projectors but have this scope lens brand new (NOS) still in the original box. The price is also suitable to your budget above.

If someone can confirm this then I can sell this scope lens to you guys.

Cheers,
