If you take that out in public we are going to start calling you "Arthur the Anteater" 😂

[@bogdannecula]

My favorite part of this video "i wouldn't take this lens out of for a shot.." 😂😂😂

[@superbmediacontentcreator]

Nice review and very genuine pointing out that a probe lens requires quite a bit of support and visionary planning to be of real value.

[@BeyondGolfPerformance]

Lol Your face on the thumbnail brought me here!

[@fandyus4125]

Howdy, Arthur. Would you have any interest in reviewing the AstrHori 27mm f/2.8? I recently found out about it and I think it's an interesting lens. It's incredibly cheap (about 50 USD) and offers an apsc image circle. It can focus but it has a fixed aperture, and it's very tiny. With that price and small size it could be good for travel.

[@mjolsztyn]

Hello Arthur, thank you for your review. I want to but this lens and wondering which version to buy. I have apsc Sony a6600 and Sony FS5 and Metabones Speedbooster. Should I buy Conon EF version this -give me extra light and wider"full frame" look or stick with native Sony E mount? Best Maciej

I have the Laowa 24mm probe lens and I think this one is better in 4 things: - No warm tint. - The front LED's are daylight ~5600K vs 4000K. - Can be dismantled for better packaging and could add a 90degree front element in the future or more. - Much cheaper The Laowa is better in: - Chromatic aberration control. Might buy this one too and sell the Laowa.

Maybe someday, someone will come out with a probe lens for smartphones. Basically, it needs a smartphone camera module at the front of a pole with usb-c on (lighting for iPhones) the other end for the smartphone. An app can control the probe camera/lens. With a bit of electronics to control the camera. A adruino mini or nano should do it. The same lens that Apple uses for macro photography should be great.

[@jamescolton1085]

Have you considered modifying a tile cutter to build a slider?

[@khievnatory1557]

Awesome macro len😍

[@GastonShutters]

I noticed tons of chromatic aberration in the sample clips. More than what I see through my Loawa. But I guess they had to sacrifice optics quality to deliver that great price.

… have you seen in NY with the new a7R V. Still waiting for the review.

[@ibrahimzayed7700]

[@pranaykanthreddy]

What a lot of people forget when choosing renting vs. buying is that you can always sell a lens you bought, getting back some of the money you put into it.

[@mavfan1]

What a lot of people forget when choosing renting vs buying is that you can always rent a specialized lens for much less than you'll lose buying it and then selling it.

[@DookeyLukey]

@@mavfan1 This really depends on how much you use it too.

[@josephbursese7801]

I thought that was a BB gun
