Hey, I have the same camera and lens, but it doesn't focus to infinity (it works fine in my old zenith) ¿which adapter do you use?

[@jaceelliott]

@@starmoca just an m42 to ef adapter, some generic brand. Could have lens adjusted if not working.

Thanks!

[@ByRaph]

really nice colors!! As someone who is still searching his own color style I would love to see some of your grading and thought process behind this video. I feel like I could learn a lot:)

[@jaceelliott]

Thanks I appreciate it! I’ll definitely make a color grading video soon!

mfw I wander the desert and find a briefcase then walk back to civilization But my goodness something about the composition at 0:05 is freaking strong DAYUM

[@jaceelliott]

Thanks man I appreciate it! Haha

[@EricMoore790]

Does that camera have ND filters inside? Great work as usual. I hope you make a movie.

[@jaceelliott]

Yes. However I only use them in situations where I absolutely need them. I prefer to use other nicer external NDs. I find I get better color out of them

[@SuddenlyZeema]

I would love the link to this lens and is it for a ef mount

[@jaceelliott]

Just look up Helios 44-2 on eBay, there are tons going for super cheap and you can get an m42 to ef adapter for like $10 on Amazon. Also could be worth looking into the other variations like 44-4 to make sure you get the one you like most

[@N.E.U.R.O]

Can you link me to where you got the lens? I'm about to save up and buy a 6K Pro soon!

[@jaceelliott]

I just got it on EBay, there are a ton of them on there. I’d just suggest getting one in “Mint” condition. So search “Helios 44-2 mint” and you should be able to find one

[@danilmorini8673]

what files did you work with? BRaw?

[@jaceelliott]

Yep, I always shoot in braw. 12:1 for small projects, 5:1 for larger projects

[@rajendrabiswas]

she's beautiful so is the desert

[@jaceelliott]

Agreed!

[@sdufg]

my Helios 44-2 58mm looks NOTHING like this. I have to f10 to just get it clean

[@jaceelliott]

Yeah some definitely have problems, especially if you’re shooting on full frame, the corners go crazy. I’d recommend getting one on eBay listed under “mint condition”. Should be decent enough and a lot of sellers off refunds.

[@MrStraciatella]

No me malinterpretes. Me encanta. Pero no puedo dejar de acordarme de la Niña de la Curva. Es algo propio de España. No creo que sepas de lo que hablo😂

[@jaceelliott]

Thanks! Just looked it up and I can definitely see what you mean haha

[@ThomasShomo]

Pro mist? Or is this just the Helios Magic?

[@jaceelliott]

Little bit of both haha but it’s a 1/8 tiffen black pro mist on there
