Fantastic lens that covers a GFX size sensor with plenty of room to spare for tilt/shift capabilities, unique in that regard.

5 times cheaper Helios 44-2 is better than the canon 50 1.4 ? What a steal!!

Very nice! A wonderful result and love the colour tones too!

nice footage man :)

So, is this shot with a Minolta 45mm as shown in the beginning or with the Canon as shown at the end?

What is the difference between the Kowa Vidoscope Super-16mm 2X and the Kowa 16-H ?

What is the difference between the Kowa Vidoscope and the 16-H ?

Does the Hypergonar 16 = (or is related to) the Kowa Prominar Anamorphic 16-H ? They look similar and both have 16 in the name. Plus H could mean Hypergonar.

Very good. Your girlfriend is very photogenic. Call me old-fashioned but if you don't want flares, don't point the camera into to the sun or similar light.

I bought both lenses, the tokina 80-200 F4 was very sharp in my test at the max aperture, I compared it with Lumix 12-60, the sharpness was at the same level even in the corner, contrast is low, so shoot straight with +5 in camera. Now I bought the tokina 80-200 F2.8, and from the test that I saw in this channel I can say that is very good, may be one of the best of its category. Anymore I saw that it doesn't have chromatic aberration, I will test it soon with Canon FD 200 f2.8 I also recommend it to use the tokina 80-200 f4 with a very long lens shade (10 cm) that helps to give good contrast in difficult light condition, I can mount it in my micro 4/3 without vignetting, the results are amazing

Tokina is much better, even at f2.8 is better if add contrast in post the sharpness is good, Pentax have too much chromatic aberration, at F4 the contrast in tokina it's good and Sharper

magic

TOKINA IS THE BEST.

I would feel cheated too

What are your setting for plus. Mine started getting jittery

Thx! Like you video so much!

Hello, I would like to ask which adapter ring is used for the mir-11 12mm/2.2 lens installed on eosm? I have one now, but I bought the wrong adapter😭😭😭

Great content...cheers

Splendid !

Thank you for sharing this amazing knowledge

Absolutely gorgeous. Quit possibly the best non-film footage I have ever seen. What a lens.

Just curious. Does anyone know what size filter threads does this lens use?

Very beautiful footage 🙌

Nice, the shots was on the original BMPCC ?, any crop in post?, thanks

Excellent presentation. Thank you. You answered a lot of the questions I had.

I'm a big fan of the SP class of Adaptall II lenses from Tamron, of which its 28mm prime lens is NOT included. I own a number of them. However, in terms of doing what you buy a lens for, putting an image on a piece of film, this 28mm is no better than a mediocre to average performer by the standards of its time, and even less so now. That is perfectly expected, as it is not one of the SP lenses, where Tamron pulled out the stops and made lenses which were as good or better and most of the maker camera/lens producers. Depending on your need lens mount, you should be able to find a 28mm from a major maker or another independent maker which will exceed the performance of this lens for a similar price. Example, for Nikon, the later versions of its 28mm 3.5 will greatly blow this lens away, and probably cost less because of the hype given this lens.

'it's very sharp, even wide open' then cuts to a soft shot of a pretty girl.

Years later but pretty helpful. Which is the lighter of the tokina or tamron?

I have a 70-210 RMC 3.5 the look is very similar to your f4 especially background bokeh

Iugh Canon 😂

😍😍😍

please tell me, what do you know about sankor 16c anamorphic lens ? is better then kowa ?

very nice video ! tnx a lot! one single question please. What is the minimum focal taken lens you can use with these anamorphic adaptors ? you can use below 50mm lenses ?

looks very pleasing for video, but I think it might be to soft of an image for Photos

I have a Konica Hexanon 35mm f2.8 to do my YT videos; but I just purchased a FD 35mm f2.8. It will be interesting to see the difference on my Canon R8. The Hexanon is super sharp. I do head shots at f16 trying to get the background library super sharp. Help stamp out Northrup Bokeh!

Nice!!! I'm just getting back into shooting with FD lenses on a Sony camera. Always loved the look.

radioactive lenses

come on people..is this just a m42 mount?? ...is that all i need..i'm not gonna spend $75 on an adapter to m43. help please

Great video. Very nice birds and music. I could relax and think about manu nice stuff watching it

Tokina or tamron? For image quality

5 years later we’re looking at closer to 3k for this set

I just bought it ... I'm anxious to try it. I searched for the flexible track .... dang, it's expensive!!!!!!

Why do you need a capturing lens for some of these?

Great conversation with amazing content/information! Thank you.

I think this is the same lens as the Raynox 135mm 1:2.8 and the Ringfoto 135mm 1:2.8 It was made by Cimko in Japan. But take care, there are several versions, also by different manufacturers. It has to look like the lens in the beginning of the video (58mm filter thread if I'm right). Simply being called Optomax 135mm 1:2.8 means zilch since different suppliers were used for the same brand name. This video looks excellent. I guess you stopped down for some sharpness.

Awesome interview! Thanks for doing this! Last winter I shot a short film with my FX3 to Prores Raw (on Helios lenses with a Great Joy 1.33x anamorphic adapter), and I used Assimilate Scratch to convert the Prores Raw to CDNG so I could edit in Resolve. There's also an app called Raw Converter that can do the same thing.

Great convo you two!! The Cinema Lens Manual is my favourite piece of literature I've bought....EVER.

Hi, which exact gears you used from cool lax?

Great interview! Thanks so much!!! Best of luck in the future Oren! Great work! Merci Alan! Love the lens info and why you like what you like 👍👍👍 + the lighting 👍👍👍
