Why is Nobody Talking About These Cinema lenses? - NITECORE Superior Prime Lenses

[@ShaneVanLitz]

Before finding these lenses my go-to for character was the Hellios 44-2 - an oldie but a goodie!

[@sunnynaguri]

Never heard of these before, Shane. They look good but like you mentioned, at that price that too from a lesser-known brand, I personally would go with the Dulens APO primes. The Dulens are a little slower at 2.4 but I think it is not a huge difference. The Dulens have similar flares as well.

[@ShaneVanLitz]

Indeed, Taylor had the Dulens set and we did like them very much!

Can't lie, I really loved the images. But from a lesser known lens, it's always hard to know how much is on the lens and how much is on the user. At twice the price of a Nisi Athena or DZO Vespid, it's a big leap of faith to get. A side to side comparison with other lenses would be very much appreciated, but I'm not sure if it would be possible

[@ShaneVanLitz]

We do review other lenses... we unfortunately don’t have access to those ATM, but it doesn't mean we haven't used them. I can say that these are some of the nicest we’ve personally used in this price range by a fair bit.

Man, I really love my APO Microprimes from SLR Magic

[@RDAudioReviews]

I love SLR Magic lenses. I have the full set of 4 original APO lenses 25,32,50,85 and combines with my EVA-1 particular look I'm getting great images that clients love. I also have their anamorphic 1.33 adaptor that I use on my projector for anamorphic projection. That lens is on par with $5-8K lenses sold for projection. Id' love to see they come out with more lenses, but there is so much competition. Looks at buying Catta Ace for when zooms are needed. I feel they'll intercut better than the Tokina photo zooms I currently use ( the 11-20 and 50-135 use same glass as cinema version at a much cheaper price)

I think in that mix of vintage / but still sharp, I'd rather rent cooke SP3. (rented 2 times and man, I'm in love) Cool review !!!

[@ShaneVanLitz]

These are a bit faster and obviously cheaper, but the Cookes are nice!!

EPIC STUFF BOYS!!!

[@RawriotVideos]

So pretty!!!

[@christopherduran9926]

When you say SLR Magic, which series are you referring to?

[@TheFilmGuyOfficial]

SLR magic micro primes cine lenses for e mount, Tayloe (me) owns them

[@christopherduran9926]

@@TheFilmGuyOfficialoh okay gotcha. I was wondering if you were referring to the APO Microprimes, because those are spectacular lenses. Similar to the NITECORE at an even better budget

[@TheFilmGuyOfficial]

I like the APOs, but they dont have the same character the microprimes do, so I was less interested. @@christopherduran9926

[@christopherduran9926]

@@TheFilmGuyOfficialI’m so surprised to hear you say that, I feel like that’s the first time I’ve heard someone say they prefer the microprimes over the APOs

[@CedrickOlausson]

Hey there, where can I watch the short with the S1H + the Nitecores?

[@TheFilmGuyOfficial]

I don’t believe it out yet!

[@LuDawgg]

I thought these were discontinued!!

[@TheFilmGuyOfficial]

you can still buy them.
