The focus breathing on the 45mm is so bad it acts like a zoom lens.
@redbeardproductions-kevind9806Ай бұрын
They do breathe a lot - but that's just the classic anamorphic style, and charm i would say. If you want a clinical lens definitely look at spherical lenses.

Haze makes it really hard to judge sharpness as levels of haze dissipate and vary over time.
@redbeardproductions-kevind9806Ай бұрын
@@davidd8281I understand what you're saying, but if sharpness is a big concern you should probably shoot spherical. I would never shoot a scene that looked like this in real life without using haze, so it's much more accurate to a real-world application. There are plenty of clinical tests out there if that's what you're interested in.

Quality wise, they are the same really. Same build and everything is solid. It depends on how much character you want vs. how clean you want it, and sharp vs soft. The 65mm is fairly sharp, but funky around the edges. The 85mm is about the same sharpness, but is cleaner around the edges... stuff like that
