Thanks. That means a lot.

@@GafferVan Did you show the short around ? There are so many youtube platforms that would happily show it.

Thank you

Thanks. No I didn't do any lens correction. The edge distortion of the 40mm can be brutal, I'm not sure any amount of Post could correct for this entirely. Nonetheless, It's part of the unique look of this lens, so I just embraced it.

No, Evolution 2X lenses are anamorphic lenses that are completely new and re-engineered designs of the rare and vintage Kowa anamorphic lenses from the 1970's. They are based on the original optical design with completely new mechanics and sturdy housing and they match the genuine anamorphic look of the originals.

Thanks. Alexa Plus 4:3

Thanks! We shot Alexa 4:3 for a 2.39.1 final aspect ratio

@@GafferVan Cool thanks!

​@@GafferVan Because of the vignetting (at the 40mm?) it should have been the LF right?

I personally like the distortion! I think it adds to the unique look.

Hey. I don't recall exactly but likely t3.5 - t5 something in that range.

Cheers. Yes, we shot wide open on some of the medium/CUs on the 40mm, and in the lower light and controllable environments. Yep, there's a version on Vimeo as well.

@@GafferVan Thanks! Could you send me the vimeo link? I wanna watch the uncompressed quality of it.

It's an excellent filter for a lot of shooting conditions, and it was particularly fast and efficient to use. In extreme high DR environments, such as low Sun daytime exteriors, you should avoid stopping down with it too aggressively. As the nature of a double polariser can do some wacky things in the corners of the frame. These effects becomes more noticeable the stronger the level of ND you dial-in.

@@GafferVan Thanks，I‘M very interest for how you colorgrade you footage， it‘s looks fantastic..........full of texture.

@@陈宗横 Thank you! I grade in Davinci Resolve. I don't do anything special, I just go with what looks appealing to my eye on any given day. Some of the shots have a digital bleach bypass style preproduction added, but only at 30% so it's subtle. For this, I add a monochrome node, play around with individual RGB values, and then composite this with the original colour grade via a Softlight or Overlay blend mode, and dial-in the opacity to what I like.

@@GafferVan Thanks，so the Grey texture is out the monochorme node.

Cheers man.

Leng Luahuazhi 👍 thanks a lot

Meysam Babaei thanks! 🙏

Claire Season the settings used are in the description. I don’t know what “cinematic” means, could you explain?

@@GafferVan Ignore them, it looks utterly sublime. Sony has a real winner with FX9
