[@JeremyLevis]

I'm always learning something new from these films, thank you very much Griffin

[@Nath.Heimberg]

Nice one, that intro clip looked so neat! Was cool to see you work kind of simple, all natural lights and run&gunning those cinema cameras. As of now i don‘t habe any experience with cinema lenses but those ones look great for sure! I always feel weird when i shoot in public places with strangers around, so thanks for even shooting bts while doing so 👊

[@mikeleefilms1028]

as a first time owner of the Canon C70, ive pretty much watched most of your youtube channel just to learn something about the C70, and also now im thinking of getting the dzo kits, and it looks amazing, as you said, it reminded you of the cooke lenses. :)

[@Kandufilms]

This is how you do a behind the scenes video, nice vid and good job guys!

[@KeithCreative]

Yessir! I've been wanting to try them out as well. The image looks great from them. Great content as always brother!

[@GriffinConway]

Thanks a lot Keith! Having a pair of these with your pair of c70’s would be a pretty killer combo!

[@SkinnyWasHere]

as an ex pro bmxer i give fixed freestyle much props. timing those cranks and the jumps is still mind boggling.

[@GriffinConway]

That’s awesome! Takes so much talent to ride like that for sure.

[@directorjayalex]

can you do a "versus" pricing video for high paying clients with you bringing your team and all equipment vs lower paying indy clients that you can do with one other person or yourself! would be dope to see your mindset behind it and how you prepare ! love your vids man and I'm binge watching your videos! I love seeing all the BTS and how you problem solve on the spot

[@VivaMediaInc]

We just bought the pair of DZO zooms, we can't wait to get them in hand and play with them. They look so awesome.

[@GriffinConway]

Nice! I really like them. What camera are your shooting on?

[@VivaMediaInc]

@@GriffinConway We shoot on BMPCC 6K Pro's. Really flirting with the Ursa Mini 12K too for an upcoming client project.

[@NileStudios]

Nice work man! Love your channel, I’m gonna come back home ( Irvine) sometime this year to visit, would love to see you and chat about film and gear.

[@powerpressproductions5165]

Man, I love your video cart! The ideas that I have now.

[@GriffinConway]

I love the cart! It's such a good tool on set

[@impoze]

sweet skills on the bike & the cam 😁

[@BenEricson]

Looks nice. Definitely a job where an EVF is essential for tracking motion. Can't beat it.

[@GriffinConway]

Yes evf would have been great

[@ScottBell]

Good stuff man, look forward to trying these lenses someday.

[@GriffinConway]

Thanks Scott! I think they would be perfect for the type of work you do

[@guidosc3470]

Again a great Video :D !

[@paulconway1176]

I've been looking for a versitile but filmic S35 camera as planing to use the DZO lens and Tilta Nucleus M for off camera focus pulling. I dont want to be limited to manual focusing as I would be with Komodo or Z-Cam E2S6 for those R'n'G moments where I might want to use some canon glass. I keep coming back to the C70. Then I also keep looking at blowing all that away with a FF Darkfighting A7sIII. Decisions Decisions ...

[@karanshetty2530]

The glass used for the pricy lenses at its core and the processing that goes into it is what makes those lenses expensive. There have been instances where cheaper lenses have used different Materials to keep the cost and weight down. At certain angles the way the lens refracts the light has also damaged the sensor. These are definitely super value for money and that would make up for any downside these might have over a period of time. Awesome video as always man. ✌🏽

[@Aaron_Smith_OM]

Go Griffin, GO! Great content!

[@GriffinConway]

Thanks Aaron!

[@persvanstrom]

Awesome video as always 🧡 I love watching your content. You come off like a super likeable person and super professional. As an amateur hoping to grow into paid gigs, but almost always shooting myself. Would you say that a manual cine is still an option for that scenario? Would for example shooting an interview solo with these even be possible? Currently only have an R6, but planning / dreaming of picking up an C70.

[@LewisJamesThompson]

Hey Griffen, love the video! What sunhood are you using for the cine 7? It looks great I'd love to use it with my easy rig too!

[@n00baublitz]

Thanks for reviewing these lenses! Can you review one or two of their full frame vespid prime lenses now? I'm very interested in their 50mm and 75mm.

[@boogeyb]

Awesome vidz! Did you use a tiffen black pro mist? Thx

[@Cinematographer_brenton]

GREAT VIDEO, I've been able to borrow these lenses for a few months and I also love them and want to buy them now xD t2.8 is usually what like to shoot anyway so they keep me consistent

[@TheLostKuma]

problem with trying gear, kinda always wanna buy it after.... LOL :) awesome content as always, so much to learn !

[@scottievee7467]

Great stuff as always. Can you pull off the same shots with an RF 24-70 using AF?

[@Adonisfilms876]

Yeah these are lenses are great, I just bought the DZO14-30mm , I just need the 20-55 and the 50-125 and I'm good!

[@peterthehusky8165]

Great video! have you thought about using the R5 and a ninja V+ for the next action-packed commercial shoot? Would be interesting to see some 8k pro res raw.

[@rayofthelight2351]

Wanna make commercials,but still kid🙄🤣one day I will be guy like griffin.😌

[@AjushiPhotography]

Very Cool! I was wondering how these lenses would perform in an actual shoot? Quick question, during the bike tricks, were you setting focus and pulling zoom since the lenses are parfocal or were you setting zoom and then pulling focus??

[@GriffinConway]

Thank you! I was pulling manually and would choose the zoom length before the shot usually

[@camtech6559]

Hi Griffin I have what seems to be a major C70 issue when I record outdoors with the C70, I normally face the same problem in situations with any sort of backlight i.e the sky... the issue is every time that's the case the c70 has a fade purple / blue circle bleaches into the footage it's fairly large as well it's not just a small dot have you come across this issue yourself? i'm probably way off base here but could it have something to do with the black shading feature? another thing about this big circle is that it doesn't move so it doesn't seem like any sort of lens flare, the circle is just completely still and baked right in the centre of the frame over the footage, now indoors this doesn't happen or even outdoors when the sky isn't in frame the footage is absolutely fine until the sky is in the shot!

[@CrossCory]

Did you get a camera jitter when using the c70 with a easyrig? I used it once and it looked super jittery even with the easyrig.

[@brandoneckert2694]

Thanks for the vid,-what lens mount adapter are you using?

[@davidrubie9490]

Dayummmm dat Jball fiiiiiine

[@briangoh2403]

May I ask if the IDX v mounts are running well on your C70? My batteries won’t power the C70 once the voltage drops to around 14.5V at around 50% capacity. Thanks!

[@honduzuelatv2436]

awesome video as always :), please make a video of c70 + monitor set up thanks!!

[@GriffinConway]

Thank you! Here’s the video where I talk about the c70 setup kzbin.info/www/bejne/jl7KioSdd9x6hrs

[@levizimmerman6761]

I’m having an issue importing your luts into the C70, is there a special way to do this, that is different from other luts?

[@kelvinlowan]

Hey Griffin! I was wondering why my C70 prompts "Process terminated with error" when trying to register your LUT? Thanks!

[@ScottSilva]

Did you use an EF mount for this? Or did you have an RF mount?

[@frasermacmannis614]

How well did the image match from C70 to C500 with these lenses? Seems like I always have to grade one to the other for me with L lenses.

[@GriffinConway]

Dude honestly I dropped a lut over the project and only tweaked a few clips. I kept getting mixed up on which shot came from which camera. The lenses matching helps a lot

[@joedoe7506]

whats the purpose of B001 sticker on the cards door?

[@mikewillie5902]

Hello from British Columbia, I’m wondering if you had the .71 speed booster on with the DZO? I own a Grizzly Bear viewing company and film a lot of wildlife with my C70; I use canon L lenses with the speed booster. I’m just wanting to try out cinema lenses to see if I can get better colours, sharpness etc. I love your channel! Ps. If you ever want to come shoot grizzly bears, and wildlife with us, there’s an open invitation:)

[@artwerkmedia8616]

Hey Griffin, did you adjust the lens to be parfocal on the c70? I’ve been at it for 2 hrs and can’t get to right. I’m using the 20-55 and from my calculations, even with no shims, it looks like I would have to remove even more…. Any idea? Thanks.

[@GriffinConway]

That was the biggest downside to these lenses in my opinion. I wish they had a chart that would say how many shims you are supposed to use with some of the main cinema cameras people will pair with these lenses. I don’t remember where I found it but there is a video on KZbin where a guy has the c300 mark iii and shows how many shims were needed to make it work. I used that as a baseline and it got me close

[@artwerkmedia8616]

@@GriffinConway ok I’ll look for it. I used the shim amount from an other guy that has a pocket 6k and it’s very close. But the minute I remove or add it’s all over the place. So I’ll have to live with this…. Or sell the lens. I agree that it’s a big downside to these lenses. I think that manufacturer’s tolerances are good enough for them to supply a chart for every camera system. Thank for you time.

[@karlkase6247]

Can you tell how much shims you used for the c70 when you change the Mount?

[@GriffinConway]

Hwy Karl, unfortunately I don’t have the lenses right now and I don’t remember off the top of my head.

[@jeremymatteo1387]

Hello Griffin, first of all love your videos, very true and very helpful :) I have a FX6 and we are looking for a solution to fix a monitor. I saw on this video you use a rode 15mm and a piece to connect your tube rode and your monitor. Do you the ref’ of this piece ? :)

[@GriffinConway]

Check out this video I have a full breakdown of this rig kzbin.info/www/bejne/jl7KioSdd9x6hrs

[@jeremymatteo1387]

@@GriffinConway thanks Griffin I saw the small rig monitor mount indeed :) but on this particular set up (bike commercial) you seemed to use a rode 15mm with your top handle where you attach a small piece and your monitor... I’m looking for this particular small piece :) is it from smallrig ? :) Thanks mate

[@BryanBenoitPhoto]

Used the EF mount for both setups? How difficult was switching from the PL mount they come with?

[@GriffinConway]

Actually I used ef on the c70 and pl on the C500 mark ii. It’s just 8 screws to swap and can be done in about 2 minutes. Super easy and straight forward. That’s one of my favorite features of the lenses.

[@BryanBenoitPhoto]

@@GriffinConway I saw on a other review where the guy said it took him 10 tries to get the correct number of shims in so it remained parafocal… :)

[@GriffinConway]

Ahh I see what you mean. That’s actually just a one time thing. Once you figure out the correct number for the lens / mount combination you will never have to go through the process of figuring it out again. I would budget 30 mins the first time, then 2 minutes every time after that as long as you remember the amount of shims needed

[@jordanwillet5541]

Jballlll!

[@KleberEleven]

Cine 7 tx and Atomos shinobi

[@Suckmycog]

Hey thats me!

[@GriffinConway]

🔥🔥🔥

[@EugeneMaynard]

👍🏾

[@miltontan]

My 2 cents. Feels like it'll be better using Canon EF lenses as a solo operator with both these cameras since they have autofocus. Then you can get an extra stop of light with a speedbooster. And with AF, parfocal lenses won't really matter anyway. Unless you're going after a specific look that he lens offers.

[@doug_EX]

Maybe but the DZO film lenses are parfocal (most photo lenses are not) and they are great to manual focus.
