Moment Spare Hex Tool — The $5 Backup That Saves a Shoot
The gist: A tiny replacement hex key for rotating Moment's 1.33x and 1.55x Anamorphic Lenses between portrait and landscape — cheap insurance against the easiest travel-gear item to lose.
- Single purpose, done right: Inserts into the small hole on the lens's bayonet mount to loosen it, rotate the lens 90°, and re-tighten for the orientation you're shooting in.
- Pocket-sized: Small enough to clip to a keychain or tuck into a lens pouch as permanent backup, separate from the one that ships with the lens.
- Direct fit: Built specifically for Moment's anamorphic lens bayonet system — no universal hex-set guessing required.
- Low cost, low risk: At around $5, it's cheap enough to buy two and never worry about a lost tool stranding your anamorphic setup mid-trip.
No Film School's review of Moment's anamorphic adapter line praised the lens system's all-metal construction and noted the mount stayed "rock solid throughout" shooting once properly seated — the kind of precision hardware this hex tool is built to service.
Best for: Anyone who already owns a Moment 1.33x or 1.55x Anamorphic Lens and wants a spare tool in their travel kit. Skip it if: you don't own the anamorphic lens — this tool has no other use. Runs about $5 — check the current price before buying.
