I made a few modifications to the lens. First I took off the screw mount by loosening the three screws at the back and reassembled it in a position so that the scales for focus and aperture are in the upright position, when the lens is mounted to the camera. Then I opened the aperture all the way and put a mark on the adapter by scratching off the black color right at the position where the 1.7 number is. When you then turn the aperture ring, you can see to which number the aperture is closed. The third modification is inside the lens, when you set the focus to the nearest position then a silver colored tube is visible on the back which could make inner reflections inside the lens. To minimize this, I painted the tube with black matte color which is used in modelling and available in this tiny containers. The lens has a 35 mm filter thread and I bought also a lens hood for this. The hood has a front thread of 46 mm and on this I screwed a circular polarizing filter. With this modifcations the contrast of the lens is greatly improved by preserving all its character. The best results come out when the lens is stopped down a bit to approx. 4. But this is not a problem at all, because the character of the lens is not archived mainly by depth of field but by the really bad field curvature, which means that even stopped down it is never possible to get sharpness from edge to edge. That makes it a wonderful portrait lens and the bokeh swirls like crazy. When the flaring is too much it also helps to block the incoming light with a hand outside of the frame. Just experiment with it and have fun!

great video

Good tip. Wan looks different today :D

Would flashes with modeling lights reduce the need to fiddle with the flash positioning after every shot?

How are you using a Neewer flash trigger on a Panasonic S5?

Awesome tutorial and throughly explained! Gave you a sub, looking forward to more!

Nice video on the Long Exposure setting. I bought the Pro due to it's long lens which the regular 8 lacks. If it wasn't for that feature, I'd have gotten the 8. Still learning about this camera as only had it a month. As a long time photo enthusiasts, it will be a while before my skill catches up to the cameras ability.

Nice informative video. But I see excess un related information. It will be better if you can keep the video short. Better stick to the topic this way it will be short and accurate. But the video is great.

Thanks :) I wanted to attach an action cam to the handlebars of my bicycle to be able to take photos quickly and easily. But seems like this is not working :o

thx for the information

Can you do action 4 also?? Thanks

Amazing video don’t know what all these hateful comments are about but anyway great video helped a lot thx

Could do with a little less waffle but more photo results instead of an extended unnecessary annoying monologue

awesome Andrew!!

I didn’t get very far in life by not subscribing to your channel!

You could have just used the dewarp option and crop to the dimensions you want with photoshop so you dont have to used the digital zoom or use photoshop to dewarp the pics you took and crop them to the size you want......

​@asaadyt Oman, very nice! Quite hot there at the moment, right? If you have a KZbin or Instagram account you can upload them and share your Instagram account name by email. Take care and be safe and enjoy your photography!

Along with that stupid hair cut.

I find that shirt offensive and stupid, you may think it’s funny, but you look like a fool for wearing it.

Thought I was watching the 9 hour version of the English Patient there for a minute.

I hope you like this video and find it useful and interesting. Please do leave your comments and suggestions here and I will reply to you.

Not a big fan of 😮y😮our voice found it very ANNOYING 😂sorry, just did not work for me

As for the "how" of the Pixel 8 long exposure it basically records a series of photos and does some computational photography behind scenes. On iphones you can do it by making a Live photo and then in the Photos app when you click on Live option you will have a Long exposure option in the menu, iphone will use the frames of the live photo to create the long xposure shot. Therefore on both devices you will see the same shutterspeed for both normal and long exposure photo.

How did you secure the ulanzi am18 buttonhole like that?! Did you put it on magnets? Please tell us what and how you did for this. and whether it can then be placed in the charging box. Thank you

Thanks

Ossam 🎉🎉🎉🎉

Awesome! Although, as you said this lens lends itself to portrait photography it would have been nice to have seen a portrait as proof of the concept.

Very thorough and well-thought-out presentation. I too went with Action 3 over Action 4. I watched many a video comparison between the two, and yes, the A4 does have a few better attributes, but I felt many of the videos I watched with the A4 had exaggerated, or pronounced colors, whereas the A3 had more true-to-life colors and weren't exaggerated making a more realistic rendition of the subject videoed. The low light was more pronounced with the A4, but I felt even though the A3 didn't show as much in low light, I felt that the videos were cleaner, clearer, and more defined than the A4. The A4 seemed muddy to me and undefined in low light. Also, the A4 seemed to have more heating issues than the A3. Other things swayed me to the A3, such as the rubber bottom, which was removed on the A4, so it doesn't slide on a slope, but the price was the big decision-maker over the A4. Good job! You're believable, and you've earned another sub.

I use it on my ASPC DSLR (Pentax k3 III), with a c-mount to m42 adapter, and m42 mount to Pentax k adapter, together. And it creates some beautiful images. But due to the flange distance it always works like a macro, with a laser thin depth of field. My uni photography tutor and my instagram followers were blown away by it.

Very informative 😊 Thanks Sir... ❤ from India... 🙏

Fried Egg Jellyfish. (Mediterranean Jellyfish) latin: cotylorhiza tuberculata It has a mild sting, not really painful, but really itchy. I personally haven't been stung by a jellyfish in my life, but that's all i know about this beautiful oceanic fried egg. :)))

Beware of the selfy stick. It comes with a 1/4 screw mount on the bottom but that is just a ~ 2 cm long plastic piece that is pushed in the bottom. I almost cracked the camera's screen because the whole thing broke off from my tripod when I moved it (with the stick on the shortest length that is) because the bottom piece came out of the bottom.

Fabulous photos Andy.

Hi ive watched your video and found it very helpful in delivering informative information about the Dji 3 camera. I've just bought a the same camera and I cant find the right app for if mimo on playstore. Its coming up with Apk files which is the proper app and what does it look like. Thanks if you can help me sort this issue out, so I can download it into my android phone..

DJI 4 crushes the 3 in low light shooting by a 500% improvement factor. Hands down.

Can you help me, I purchased one but I don’t know if there’s something wrong with the c mount or lens itself. It works sometimes but not all the time, it says on the screen to check if the lens is attached even though it is. Is there a reason why it’s doing it? I have it on my Lumix GH1

This was a great video, awesome production!

The production quality of this video is amazing. I'm surprised you don't have more subscribers. This video is great. I enjoyed it.

I just bought eight of the Godox TL30s, two of the four light kits. I didn't even know these lights existed, I would have considered them, I have some Ulanzi QR mounts and they are great. I assume that like the Godox, these can be ran while they are charging for longer form content like a podcast? I'm using them to light up walls for a video podcast, these probably would have been fine and they are almost half the cost of the Godox.

😊

Thanks for the video.May I choose this action3 rather than Gopro hero10? I'm very much confused. After 10bit upgration what are the improvements of the camera actually feel.watch from India...

Thank you for saying ZED Vee E ten!

excellent video, I ordered one.
