Want To Shoot Anamorphic? Get THIS Lens!

[@JoshCameron]

What do you guys think? Do you agree that S35 is actually better for anamorphic shooting?

[@iamamapendo]

Hello dear, what is for you a good choise for an EF Mount ? we have a BlackMagic Pocket 6K Pro and we want to buy a good Anamorphic lens, what could be your suggestion?

[@JoshCameron]

@@iamamapendo Sirui make EF mount versions of many anamorphic lenses, you should check out their site :)

[@AnthonyRodriguezz]

I don’t! 😭

[@oneeyedphotographer]

You didn't make the case to me. Too much ll-informed nonsense. You need to go to Lens School.

[@EdProsser]

The S35 v FF "debate" doesn't really bother me as I shoot on both - but if I were investing in anamorphic glass I'd probably go for a stronger squeeze factor just so I could go wild with the anamorphic look. BUT selling that look to a client is also tricky so they'd get used less often for professional work, so less likely to buy a set and more likely to rent... Selling the anamorphic look usually means finding a project that won't need cropping on socials(!) So maybe shooting on a 1.33x squeeze lens is an easier way of compromising to get some of that anamorphic magic whilst not going too wild on the delivery aspect ratio. Do you think you'd use this lens on a professional project? Also - I've been using the phantom LUTs with my Komodo and didn't realise they were available for LUMIX - your sample footage looks so creamy and lush, will have to try them out, good work!

[@PauliJuppi]

I don't think you lose light with aps-c crop. In my tests 12mm 2.8 mft lens will exposure the same as 24mm 2.8 ff lens. Otherwise good video about anamorphics 👍

[@exthander]

Exactly!

[@Average1212]

Correct, the exposure remains the same from ff to aps-c. Your effective FOV and DOF change. If you want a deeper DOF in low light there are actually advantages to aps-c, as you can maintain a higher DOF with a lower aperture setting. Its a glass half full sort of thing.

[@9adriano21]

The one main reason to get the full frame , and the reason is heavier and more expensive it’s because it’s a 1.6x squeeze, vs the APS-C which is 1.33x.

[@JoshCameron]

Yeah totally aware of that, I just think 1.66 is such a heavy squeeze that if you were to shoot any anamorphic sequences, you'd kinda need at least one more focal length with a 1.66x squeeze as well. At least with 1.33x you can kinda get away with slapping it in a timeline that has also been shot with regular spherical lenses too :)

[@jessecumberledge4530]

Exactly. A 1.33x just isn't worth it to me. Need at lease 1.6x to get very noticeable anamorphic qualities IMO. I have no problem with S35 though, great format for video.

[@StarskiYall]

This, plus on the a7siii I have to be in full frame to be at 4k which I don’t mind doing a little side cropping on. Also the flares are not so overdone on the full frame versions. And if you use the adapter you get full 2x

[@SlaughterHausD]

So the Full Frame Saturn 35mm becomes eqiv of a 22mm on the horizontal.

[@MicroFourNerds]

you're the first person I've seen who actually easily explains the equivalent mm in apsc anamorphic vs full frame, thank you! also, only 12ms rolling shutter on the gh6 😆 m43 ftw haha

[@JoshCameron]

It's so hard to get the equiv's from the manufacturer's website too! So most of the time I feel like we're left in the dark unless we actually do the maths/tests ourselves! Hahaha GH6 beats everything ;)

[@MicroFourNerds]

@@JoshCameron I’ll convert you one day 🤣

[@mediamannaman]

I bought an S5 for my real estate photography business ONLY because some people/companies won't hire me if I shoot with anything less than full frame. Previously, I had shot almost 2,000 homes with a GH4 or a G9 and never heard a complaint, only praise. I still use the G9 as a backup and for other things. Both cameras are tools, each with its own advantages and disadvantages.

[@craigwallis3781]

As an absolute (and unsponsored aside :) ) The only thing that is better than Josh's ability to shoot phenomenal quality footage, share professional, and honest insights, as well as totally useable knowledge, is his personality. I had he absolute privilege to meet Josh when came to visit "family" in South Africa last year. What a genuine, open-hearted. caring gentleman. #LoveAtFirstSite :)

[@JoshCameron]

This is so nice, thanks so much Craig! Can't wait to come out and see you all again this December :) I'll have to get you a camera so you can follow along with the vids ;D

[@Norain1992]

Dude, I am 100% with you. Was loving the Sirui 35mm 1.8 on my GH5, so I instantly backed the S35 version for my L-Mount system. For sure the 35mm is the best lens of this lineup. APS-C Crop was no problem for me, since I am shooting 4K 60p most of the time. The look of this lens is absolutely special and I love it! Furthermore I love to use it for video Calls. I was using Great Joy FF anamorphic lenses with my S1H in 6k Open Gate, which is also very nice if you need that. But as you said, there it is getting really heavy and I am starting to love minimalistic lightweight setups instead of heavyweight fully rigged. Therefore I am about to swap my go to system (S1H + Sigma 24-70) to S5II + Sigma 28-70mm. It is not a huge loss in quality but in weight and mobility for sure. Way better for gimbal work as well. Maybe I will wait for the S5IIX because of SSD recording, which is the main reason for me using the Atomos Ninja V. For sure I would love to see more of S35 Anamorphic lenses. :-) BTW: I absolutely recommend using diopter filter with this lens. Not only because of the minimal focus distance, but for the look you will get with it. ;-)

[@RockWILK]

I use this lens on my S5, and it’s nothing short of incredible. And actually for me, the lens flare is the least interesting part of the lens. It actually annoys me a little bit sometimes. :-) I just love the way the lens looks overall. Very special.

[@JoshCameron]

Glad you love yours dude :)

[@SakkiDuran]

How good is it for handheld shooting? I have the S5 too

[@RockWILK]

@@SakkiDuran I have a KZbin video that I shot completely handheld, and everything was beautiful. No gimbal, no nothing. Just me and my S5. To me, if you are a good handheld shooter, it's fine. I generally shoot with vintage manual lenses anyway, so I'm used to not having extra stabilization or anything like that, as always, it's really up to the person more than the gear. But I would highly recommend it personally.

[@BikesILike]

Josh, when it comes to aperture, T1.8, or T2.9, or f1.4 or whatever, the same amount of light is hitting the sensor regardless of size. The exposure values will be the same across all sensors. In terms of aperture, the only thing that changes from sensor size to sensor size is the depth of field.

[@JoshCameron]

I think what I said in this video was misunderstood as I worded it completely wrong, thanks for this!

[@BeatsbyNT]

Great video mate. Apologies for saying this, but please use a de-esser for your lisp. It can be distracting.

[@who2999]

Good break down of cost vs benefits. Generally agree if you're just looking for video S35 lenses are typically a way better deal. Most of the benefits of full frame lenses are going to come in for photography or some really niche use cases in the video world. Not saying there's no reason to go for the full frame version, but if you need it you'll know, and if you're at that limit where you need it chances are the difference in price tag won't matter to you because someone else is picking up the bill.

[@charliedont]

This is very informative and I really liked the example footage and cannot argue with it nor arguments you gave. Well done!

[@JoshCameron]

Thanks Charles, appreciate it!

[@MrMilanina]

Although there are quite few final products these days I still put my money on Iscorama (pre or 36) and some old glass. Ramas go under $3000 now, 1.42x squeeze with a dream like rendering. One can pair it with old Zeiss, Leica R even Leica M mount glass...

[@alexanderbahr7252]

You are my Hero! This is exactly the Video that I needed!

[@stoneylama]

I think that made my decision for me - the 50mm vs 35mm. Basically a standard FF 50mm vertical FOV coupled with the rough equivalent of a FF 35mm horizontal FOV. Works for me. I own the Panasonic 35mm f/1.8 and the 85mm f/1.8 and thought about the Sirui 50mm f/1.8 to fill that space in between, but really the 35mm kinda plays better.

[@SakkiDuran]

I'm exactly on the same road. 35 plus 85 and looking for something in between. 50mm ff seems the best option

[@rodthompson274]

Hi Josh. Love your videos and your presentation etc. Been doing this a while and bit confused about one of your comments. The f-stop equivalence, being "the smaller sensor gets less slight, it's just physics"? F1.8 is 1.8 on any lens and any format. The depth of field equivalence is different i.e 1.8 mft = about 2.8 ff, but the light gathering in is not the same. F-stops are calibres, meaning they are mathematically aligned by length/width so that lens "A" and "B" can be compared equally, which is the point, not something that changes (in light gathering) as the sensor or film format at the other end changes size. This tends to fall into a general mis-use of the depth of field/aperture terms I hear a lot like "smaller apertures let in more light" and "stop down to a smaller aperture to let in more light", meaning smaller aperture numbers I assume, which are larger apertures (smaller apertures having bigger numbers). This seems to be an on trend term at the moment as is simply wrong and confusing in a field already tough to understand. As a teacher and practitioner of photography for over forty years, I think it is really important we get the basics right, or they may need to re-write the physics books to suit the new wave of academics. This tends to be limited to the videography fraternity, who are by and large younger and have fewer mentors to call on (and seem to copy each other), but it needs to stop as new shooters are getting confused and older ones annoyed. Hope this is taken as intended.

[@ausflyer]

Thanks for posting this Josh. I have just put my feet back in the creative world, Video primarily, but stills close behind. I have the S5iiX and 3 of the 5 Lumix f/1.8 Lenses, & the Lumix 20mm-60mm kit lens, plus looking at getting the Sigma 14mm f/1.4 and really liked the look of the Sirui 35mm 1.33x APS-C lens but was not sure of the compatibility with the Lumix FF body. As much as there may be an argument re 1.6x or 1.8x with FF Anamorphic lenses, I have been using a 1.33x on my iPhone 14 Pro Max (it needs some zoom, or post cropping to remove vignetting) but to be able to get footage with both and seamlessly split and marge footage is a huge bonus.

[@findingefilm]

I own a full set of LAOWA Nanomorphs. What is nice, is that it is possible to change mounts. Id be very interested in seeing how these small 1.5x aps-c work on the s5 ii or iix

[@Frostbeatz]

Hi, Josh love the content, question have you noticed the distortion Potato Jet has mentioned concerning the image appearing a little bit stretched or squeezed when the focus changes?

[@micahdekorne-ff7pj]

Really appreciate the list of benefits… especially as I just step into anamorphic. Do you feel there is a difference in image quality between the lenses?

[@JoshCameron]

I'd say that they're quite similar in terms of overall sharpness, although I would say that you do get more pleasing bokeh with the FF bc of the 1.66x anamorphic squeeze instead of the 1.33x. I would say though that it's not worth spending over double the money for that :)

[@KaanSenel]

But when you use aps-c lenses, you loose some resolution and slow motion options. That is why I "can't" use aps-c lenses on my S5.

[@JoshCameron]

Where did you hear this mate?

[@talpalatnyizold]

@@JoshCameron I did not hear. This was my experience with my S5 (and with Sigma 18-35 or Canon 10-18).

Not just the crop. :(

Beginner question: does it work on the Lumix G7? And if so, would you recommend this combination?

[@CanditoTrainingHQ]

Youre better off with a Gh4 or Gh5, as both of those have an open gate option, which makes anamorphic better. With the G7 you will shoot 16:9 and then the lens will make the aspect ratio even wider than intended, and ultimately isnt really what its designed for. Youre also better off with a M43 native lens, as they actually have amazing deals on anamporphic.

I would do, but I don't actually have the 50mm T2.9 to hand anymore. It's essentially due to the gained real estate on the sides of the frame when you desqueeze the footage :)

[@thrillsandmagic]

@@JoshCameron Thanks for the response! What second lens would you get as a compliment to the 35mm? Maybe the 50mm? Or longer?

[@skrotfiske]

Well, there's some information in this video that is sort of wrong. F-stops or f-numbers never change no matter the size of the sensor. F-numbers are just the focal length divided by the size of the entrance pupil meaning it will never change no matter if it's paired with a APS-C, Micro 4/3 or even Medium Format sensor. What matters when it comes to the amount of light that can be captured by the sensor is the actual physical size of the sensor. A full frame sensor is bigger in size which means it has more and bigger photosites which is what actually absorbs the light so no matter if you have a f1.8 on both FF and APS-C the FF sensor will always be better in low light as it can absorb more light. T-stops and F-stops are NOT the same thing, a T1.8 and a F1.8 lens are totally different. T-stops refers to the amount of light that actually comes through the lens while F-stops only refers to the focal length divided by the entrance pupil. This means one f1.8 lens does not let in as much light as another f1.8 lens because they have different glass elements which let's in a different amount of light. A T1.8 lens will always let exactly as much light through as another T1.8 lens as T-stops takes the loss of light while it travels through the different internal glass elements of a lens into account. This is why T-stops are used in cinema and not F-stops as two F-stop lenses will never (unless they're the exact same make and model) have the same exposure no matter if they're set to the same F-stop or not. So without knowing the transmittance (transmittance refers to how much light a specific lens let through and what percentage of light is lost while traveling through that lens) of the f1.8 lens we cannot know it's T-stop so saying a F-stop lens isn't as fast another T-stop lens isn't accurate. It might be in this instance but we can't know that so we shouldn't say that.

[@המרכזהארצילאימוןואבחון]

[@kennyektar]

Do you use "Anamorphic mode" in the S5ii with this lens?

[@JoshCameron]

I do indeed!

[@RandumbTech]

Results look good, but to my eye, footage kinda looks like a spherical lens with a bloom filter on the front. It doesn’t really have that “anamorphic” look. Probably best used at night with bright lights around to get the flares.

[@NeonShores]

My take: You're still losing vertical FOV when shooting in APS-C so you are still losing real estate. Also I'd rather shoot open gate with a 1.6x lens to get the best image possible. And the new Sirui Saturn are now being made for L mount and they are tiny, 1.6x, neutral flare if you want, 58mm filter thread, and full frame. Yes it's more money but for me a much more interesting option with a more unique image.

[@TVCStudios]

Absolutely agree it is only a 1200 now. 1,33 is not noticeable, and what`s the point to have ff. It is better to invest more, and then charge you clients more.

[@JoshCameron]

Yep totally get where you're coming from dude. It all depends on whether you can find the use for the extra squeeze too. If someone truly wants to get deep into anamorphic then more squeeze is better :)

WHAT THE ACTUAL F..? You are not losing ANY light hitting the sensor when you shoot S35 Vs FullFrame. You just lose visual (not actual) depth of field relatively to FOV difference with the same lens put on FF. Now I understand all the guys around FF... People just don't know a sh*t. 🫠
