Is It Worth Investing In The Sirui Jupiter Full-frame Macro Cine Lenses?

[@films_by_aw]

Thanks for the review, I've not seen much of these lenses before. They look like a bargain!

I'm curious to hear if you've had an opportunity to to use Sirui's Nighwalker APS-C lens on any of your camera bodies? If so, how did the image quality, contrasts, and flaring (or lack thereof) compare? Great review...and footage! 🙂

I haven’t but they do seem like incredible value for money and I was very close at one point to buying. In the end my choice was to choose full frame lenses so if in the future I upgrade the camera I wouldn’t need to upgrade the lenses.

@@thatcameranerd That's where I'm going after having picked up the 16mm T1.2 during the Kickstarter campaign to use on my Canon EOS R7 last year. I'm really pleased with the quality of the image, although -- and as with your experience of using the full frame Jupiters -- there's that odd ghosting sheen produced by a single point light source (rather than a flare). It's something I don't like so was a little disappointed to see that your footage exhibited the same phenomenon. It's all about personal prefs, I know, so in my case a flag to keep light spill to a minimum (even with a matte box) is my workaround. Btw, I recently posted a short lens test on my channel showing the 16mm Nightwalker T1.2 in action on an unstabilised Canon EOS R50 using a Tilta Mini Matte Box. It's my photography travel camera. It shoots in 10bit HLG internally, so I thought I'd give it a go... just for fun. Here's the link kzbin.info/www/bejne/bnq9k6iPoq2rjKcsi=7StCjpTW8MA6yoI7

How did you fit them on the s5? Wich adapter? Will it still look good with the m21 adapter from l to ef mount

[@thatcameranerd]

I went with the poco mofage so that I could have an internal ND rather than having to use a Matt box. I made a video on it a few weeks back.

@@thatcameranerd ahh. Yes I used them last week with my mc21. Great lenses
