FUJI X-M5 Low Light Lenses

[@rossolimo4981]

Your X-M5 reviews are superb - helpful, creative, and inspirational. I can't wait til mine comes in a few days! With gratitude from the US 🙏

[@AltCine]

Ahh thank you so much. I'm really enjoying this camera and finding out about Fuji. I hope you get yours soon but it's definitely worth the wait 🙌🏾

[@VietinghoffAlex]

Very nice! That autofocus is so good too! The build quality of the lenses looks very solid and professional, what a good deal.

[@AltCine]

@@VietinghoffAlex thanks Alex. Very surprised by how decent the AF is. I usually use centre focus to make sure I get what I need in focus but yes, solid & well built lenses.

[@GixrGuy]

Peace be with you! Bless you for this!!!

[@AltCine]

Blessings my brother and thank you 🙏🏾

[@fauland_photography]

Top built quality, lightweight and nice color rendering and Bokeh. Nothing seems to be missing.... I will give them a try😎👍

[@AltCine]

@@fauland_photography yeah nothing to complain about really, quite nice, sharp and as you said "nice colour rendering". Using the kit lens was ok when I first got it but using the 35mm and XM5 on that short made me realise that this camera is dark horse.

[@samwo-life]

thanks for this. especially the emphasis on low light. my preferred shooting setting

[@AltCine]

@@samwo-life thanks for leaving a comment. Yes lowlight is a priority as you don't want to get caught out. I think crop sensor cameras are generally frowned upon because of lowlight but a couple fast lenses will do wonders when you can't setup lights.

[@cine-ish]

The build is insane

[@AltCine]

@@cine-ish thank you, I think you'll love the final version...and it's so affordable.

[@KILLEGOTV]

Great shots with this lens. Worth a consideration!

[@AltCine]

@@KILLEGOTV absolutely worth considering, definitely for lowlight shoots.

[@ItsDrewsif]

Definitely check out the TTArtisan lenses. Solid autofocus, lots of character, and very reasonably priced.

[@AltCine]

@@ItsDrewsif thank you and I definitely will. I'm looking for around a 23 / 25mm to get somewhere around a 35mm fov on crop sensor. Thanks for the recommendation.

[@Lousmind]

I absolutely recommend that 35mm lens I use it on my Fuji XT5 and love it

[@AltCine]

@@Lousmind that's so good to hear. I really love it too and wouldn't leave home without it.

[@monkeyofspice]

Looks great, what an affordable performer. Thanks lenses review, I been looking for a 35mm. Now for Fuji to catch up on the demand 🙏

[@AltCine]

@@monkeyofspice I really need to look at some OEM Fuji lenses but I think they'll be expensive right?

[@monkeyofspice]

That is the problem Fuji glass is very expensive. I got the XF 18-55 & 55-200 second hand. I think you did well with the Brightinstars for primes.

[@AWAShowme]

Excellent work man!

[@AltCine]

@@AWAShowme thank you brother

[@zhangquan5438]

Hi there, nice video. I owned the Brightin Star 35mm f/0.95 lens, want to ask whether your copy will overshoot the focus upon infinity? Mine with the focus ring that can be turned beyond infinity makes the photo from infinity in focus become blurry outfocus if I accidentally turned/bumped the focus ring. For me it’s kinda of a bummer as I need to put down my camera and make sure it’s pointing to the “right” infinity measurement instead of overturned to blurry image which sometimes makes the capture moment past…😢

[@Scotch_and_Sew]

Is that opening shot of the silhouetted camera the X-M5 rigged out? Would love to see a vid on that haha! Also that lens on it looks sick as!

[@AltCine]

@@Scotch_and_Sew hi, yes that's right 😁. I'm very pleased with this rig as it is sooooo cheap. Going to start the video this weekend and it's quite in-depth so will take me about 4 or 5 days to complete.

[@Scotch_and_Sew]

@@AltCine Very Keen to see as I have been using my X-M5 for stills and was thinking about getting into video - and I like the sound of cheap haha!!! I will subscribe so I don't miss it!

[@erik6678]

Hey. Great video. Thank you! I also own the 35mm lens and it is really a good. The build quality for this price is top. One question: which lens would you recommend for best stabilized footage for the x-m5?

[@AltCine]

@@erik6678 yeah definitely a great lens, even at high iso you can get a pretty clean image. So far I've only tested these 2 lenses, the kit 15-45 and just bought an ef speedbooster so it's difficult for me to comment on that. I am meeting a friend next week who's letting me try a few stabilised lenses and I'll definitely let you know my findings. I definitely need a good fast stabilised lens for travel so it's a high priority.

[@erik6678]

@AltCine thank you. Really looking forward for that. Of course a gimbal is the best solution. But when you travel light it is not practible. I already tried the old 18-55 2.8-4 and at 18mm it makes a good job. The viltrox 13mm 1.4 also seems to be very good (although it is not stabilized).

[@paraskinger6828]

Amazing video as always!❤ i wanted to ask you something. A while back ago you did a video on BFA and improving their short film. I have to say watching that video made me feel I've learnt so much from that as supposed to any other video or film school and I subscribed your channel in a heartbeat. Can you please include that type of content as it may help aspiring filmmakers like me to understand the craft better?

[@AltCine]

@@paraskinger6828 thank you so much. It's funny you should mention that. The next video is about lighting & grading from a very basic perspective on how to get cinematic images in very basic locations. Should be dropping in a few days.

[@pdcorlis]

Have you tried the Sirui Saturn 35mm Anamorphic on the X-M5 yet? I’d love to see that combo.

[@AltCine]

Hey, I've got the new 40mm Sirui anamorphic coming and that review will be out next week. That video will be an in-depth video as I'm also showing how to build a rig for cinema. I managed to build a nice one for an extremely low cost (the opening shot).

[@pdcorlis]

@@AltCineThat is really exciting news! I wish you luck and can’t wait to see the review/build!

[@IngweMutliMediaProductions]

Great I like your reviews as they are real world tests I real dislike the pixel peer tests even though they do have there place , but feel they over done , I am looking for a 50mm lens for my Fuji XH2 , could please lens us have the AF Settings , I would like to compare them for my current settings please. keep up the great work

[@AltCine]

@IngweMutliMediaProductions yeah man, everyone always does those pixel peeping tests but most of us would never notice. I stopped taking them as serious when I saw the Cooke sp3 wide open and the CA looked the same as a pair of Sirui Nightwalkers but everyone still saying how great the cookes are. Yeah I'll definitely add the settings to my next video.

[@kulassbp]

I hope they will release a 23mm.

[@AltCine]

@@kulassbp me too, I'm missing that focal length. Need a small, budget fast lens that ends up around 35mm but preferably with AF.

[@Calgothits]

🔥 I don’t even know why I click these videos anymore 😂 more equipment added to the cart now 😢🙏

[@AltCine]

🤣🤣 I feel your pain lol. It's so mad getting a new system and although I got a speedbooster...native lenses are just something I had to have. I would love to have Fuji lenses and although I got these lenses for review, my mind is always thinking of maximum productivity for the best price.

[@sambutcher4344]

Nice one! Will they make an MFT version?! 😬

[@AltCine]

@@sambutcher4344 I think they have a couple different mounts but not sure on MFT. It would be crazy if they didn't.

[@mikebaguncinha4575]

They do! they have all the main mounts

[@Lilly-t9e]

Hey i like the price point on these lenses, i think i might grab the 50 from their website, has anyone tried ordering direct from the website ? shopping experience ? support ?

[@AltCine]

@@Lilly-t9e yeah very good prices. I think you can get it on AliExpress too.

[@MaxMakarenko]

Do not like these lenses at all

[@AltCine]

@@MaxMakarenko Have you tried them or just from what you've seen on KZbin? If you give more context then it'll help people decide 👍🏾

[@MaxMakarenko]

@@AltCine I tried it in the shop here in Kyiv with my x-t5, took ten shoots next to the place. Build quality is ok, the photo quality cannot be even comparable with fujinon lens. I have 23 and 33 1.4
