iPhone 15 Pro - Freewell Lens Review - Who Are They For??

[@thefilmalliance]

🔥Take my FREE CAMERA QUIZ to see what camera is right for you on my website.🔥

[@chicagobob]

Their first release of the 15 Pro max case didn't fit the 15. I had to send it back but good to know that Freewell was aware and has fixed the problem and you can get the new case directly from them. The Amazon store took no longer shows the 15Pro Max case but Freewell said that the new case will be available in Nov on Amazon too. I thought the support from Freewell was fast and helpful.

[@pdcorlis]

After years of supporting Moment - I have given up on them. They never seem to deliver products that live up to the hype of their advertising… and don’t get me started on shipping costs and delivery times. Freewell is a far more honest and responsive company. It’s a shame really.

I would like to get an anamorphic lens for the 15 pro max, but all of them I feel have such an exaggerated flare. Is good to have some flare, but all lenses I watch reviews the flares are exaggerated. Wonder if it has to do with the size of the glasses, since most those lenses are built in very similar ways.

[@AllThingsFilm1]

Great demonstration. For me, I plan on getting the 1.33x Freewell anamorphic lens with the orange flare. Something about the orange flare seems more organic than the blue, because I think it would blend with most scene lighting compared to the blue flares. I also prefer the 1.33x because it more closely resembles the Cinemascope aspect ratio we are used to in theaters. Thanks for the comparison. It was very helpful and informative.

[@pdcorlis]

Dude! You’re in my home town! Can’t tell you how great it is to see lens tests in places that are so familiar! Good review with real promising results. Thanks!

[@addeo8997]

How about chromatic aberration, distorssions, and other lenses issues?

[@a1exa1dama]

How does the case feel in the hands? Any button or MagSafe issues?

[@Baleur]

Great video but your snow mist examples dont make much sense. The better demonstrations would be shooting directly at the sun during dawn / dusk, or at city lights at night. Shooting a mostly evenly lit daytime scene (without strong highlights like the sun or specular reflections), wont show much difference.

[@paya_herp_derp]

Can you stack the magnetic filters on top of each other?

[@888berg]

Is there any Jello look when filming and pointing the camera around, like @3:18 ? Great work :))

[@BCPCamerasTech]

Super informative and trustworthy. Both the VND filter and Anamorphic lens look so nice! Subscribed

[@rosenosestadosunidos]

Which lens do you think is better for vlogs please?

[@normdorosh]

thanks for your great videos...so if I am using a handheld camera video shot to bring a hummingbird that is 20 feet from me would the freewill macro long range lens work well? or would the video turn out to be too shaky if I am following the hummingbird handheld without a gimbal?

[@Prodigy1XX]

amazing work

[@pedalandypedal]

You say the colors didn’t change with the VND but the sample shots have very different colors.

[@michaelbell75]

No they don't. That photo was an example of another ND filter he tried. Watch again

[@pedalandypedal]

@@michaelbell75 he starts the video by saying the sample shots will be Freewell vs the native camera and never mentions another brand of filter being used.

[@michaelbell75]

@@pedalandypedal watch at 4:22 again. Hes showing an example from another ND filter he used that brought out the greens. The video that follows with the FreeWell colors look identical

[@pedalandypedal]

@@michaelbell75I’m talking about the samples for the VND just before 2mins. Almost all the samples around that time show color shift.

[@MTBs]

Great to see this video as I'm considering/going to buy the V ND1-5 with included mist filter. Thanks!

[@thefilmalliance]

Thanks, That’s my favorite

[@jhiand]

Does freewell ever go on sale?

[@caroforth]

Can you put the nd filters on top of the mist filters?

[@thefilmalliance]

What a great question! No you cannot. If your using the 1/4 Snow mist magnetic filter you cannot use the screw on filters or the magnetic VND filter

[@caroforth]

@@thefilmalliance thx for your quick answer. Well this is a bit stupid

[@FFTuk]

@@caroforthbut you can get the vnd x mist filter though

[@tzitzos77]

Hello, Is there a way to use a variable ND filter to the wide 18mm lens from another brand? Do you know the filter mount of the lens? Thx you

[@fromdonwithlove]

Is the MagSafe accessible with the lenses attached?

[@TheSpacemanSpliff]

Great review video,. Just curious, have you used the Beastgrip lenses, and if so how do these compare?

[@Samj5-e5p]

こんなレンズセットを待ってました！ ありがとうございます👍

[@lucanardo3199]

Hi, does that stabilizer also support the weight of the iPhone 15 Pro Max?

[@NicheTangle]

What gimbal are you using with the anamorphic lens? Thanks

[@thefilmalliance]

I was using the Hohem gimbal for this

[@61film]

Thanks for your work guy, does have an adaptator for smallrig brandon li cage ?

[@Mr_Kenneth]

Let me be very clear. Don't waste money on any so- named DSLR. The iPhone 15 Pro Max is a true professional camera. Don't let its form factor convince you it's merely a smartphone. We've just done a product shoot for a major UK gifting company and the results are starting. Images are 8,000 x 6,,000 pixels and can be blown up to the size of a truck. Likewise the video quality in the log format is unbelievable. We have used the Freewell ND and polariser and for the quality of these filters are exceptional.

[@thefilmalliance]

Can you include link to your product shoot?

[@vigamortezadventures7972]

Im curious what codec you used because i think you could of gotten a better image.

[@thefilmalliance]

I used h.265 apple ProRes Log. What would you recommend

[@Coatsey007]

Nice video as always. Do you know if the remote Bluetooth handle can start the record in the BlackMagic phone app?

[@thefilmalliance]

Yes it does, I just tested it out

[@Coatsey007]

@@thefilmalliance thank you, that makes you the man... 👌🏾

[@peterdirection4608]

Pocket 3 has a built in gimbal, 1-inch sensor, and magnetic filters.

[@BtrDaze]

But if u drop it it’ll die

[@peterdirection4608]

@@BtrDaze so don’t drop it. It’s not an action cam. It’s a much better system than what you need for insta or tiktok. Meant from content creators that travel. Video is so much richer than the digital look of computational photography on phones.

On the VND still test, what happened to the bottom right corner, the rest look fine?

[@jesusblessthesecommentsamen]

To expensive what gymbol you using ?

[@jaymills1720]

Can’t say I see much difference in quality. Just shoot log and put an ND on

[@homediary8344]

1:50 the difference is clear with the warmth even if the slightest of difference matters for you.

[@imakevideocinematic]

it is very nice filter

[@thefilmalliance]

I think it all depends on the user and what they’re using it for. Thanks for the motivation.

[@SportsLifeUnited]

Not a huge difference. Anything I’m missing?

[@DreamWevr]

What gimbal and grip you used no probably not like native camera app and already have anamorphic lens what beautiful city is this

[@thefilmalliance]

Thanks, I left the gimbal in the description. This is Post Falls Idaho

[@JohnHelghor]

@@thefilmalliance I grew up on Tubbs Hill, a lot of these shots are not in Post Falls. ;)

[@wanaka1975]

all the youtuber miss one thing. All the lens do not come with a lens cap. Neither freewell produce any lens cap. I think this is something basic. I bought a moment lens it come with a cap by default to protect the lens. You can have the lens on the phone and cover with cap if you are traveling.

[@z73-dn9ts]

lens flare is very bad, why all creators sow this lens like a good product I don't understood

[@aytothemm.1035]

I winder if im the inky film maker that doesnt care for anamorphic lenses. It just doesnt hit for me me

[@davidsok4530]

No bokeh effet ?

[@thefilmalliance]

Not that I can tell unless you go cinematic mode

[@grzegorzkrajewski1095]

1.55 - too "cinematic" for my taste. I'd rather go 1.33.

[@thefilmalliance]

I have to agree with you.

[@RirtyDascal]

You lost me at “affiliate links in description”. I can’t seem to find a truly non biased review of these lenses anywhere.

[@thefilmalliance]

Mute the video and watch the actual shots. I’m not biased by the way

[@avcreations2494]

Thank you

[@thefilmalliance]

Thank you for the kind words, I really appreciate it.

[@vanomaden]

I see no added value, just more bulk. The freewell filters leave a lot to be desired. The brownish coloration they add to the image center is terrible.

[@ShortStoryInspiration]

1:05 yukkk those flares are horrible

[@Wärkky90]

Why is nobody telling anything about this case? Only lenses.

[@FREDEPHRAIM187]

you need to get all that to make something they is better from the start sorry iphone is not a point and shoot killer sorry sony rx100 m7 kills iphone and just get a camera but nice video guy like your work

[@michaelbell75]

The RX has no stabilization, no ultra wide lens, the HDR log sucks, no cinematic video, no touchscreen, no USB-C and like everything else Sony makes, it's overpriced. Should be $700, not $1200 lol

[@FREDEPHRAIM187]

the rx100 m7 does have cinematic video i could use a gimbal better sensor better zoom better photos in light and dark no usb c but could get more batteries and try using that iphone in the dark with those garbage upgrades waste of money just get a camera lol

[@michaelbell75]

@@FREDEPHRAIM187 I have many camera. Why are you in an iPhone video thread if you think it’s garbage? Just trolling obviously. There are many professional videographers on here who are getting amazing footage with the iPhone 15. If you can’t, then you are garbage not the phone. Get better.

[@FREDEPHRAIM187]

funny guy with all them garbage upgrade you done passed 2000 and still can't achieve better quality at night that iphone is garbage stay in your lane samsung and the sony phone has a one inch sensor when iphone gonna start bringing real innovation all iphone are the same i'm good with a iphone 14 even one plus is better iphone needs to catch up boo for iphone for selling dreams
