These look good but then again so do my old (I don't say vintage, I say old) lenses from the 1970s. I paid $400 for an entire set and the quality pretty closely matches these. The reason I share this is because I think far too many young filmmakers are convinced to buy stuff they don't really need. If I gave my set to Armando, he'd create beautiful stuff. The true beauty is Armando (and all filmmaker's)brains, creativity and vision. Carpenters don't obsess over KZbin videos about hammers. They use what they have to build. We should do likewise.

THIS!!!!!!! Ive been one to rat race with cameras and have been in debt for 3 years paying off equipment when I could have just saved so much money buying something smaller form than what I bought

[@CringePanda]

So what set did you get? Inquiring minds and all that...

[@relaxwithme3266]

@@CringePanda Got 2 sets. The one 1️⃣ speak of is Canon FD. Bought before prices went up. The other is Minolta MD set. Both excellent. Some old Pentax and CY Zeiss too. Bottom line is many old cheap sets are excellent in my eyes. Mind you I’ve been slowly buying cheap deals for 18 years now. Garage sales etc.

Had fun shooting with them, beautiful lenses 🔥

[@zygote8888]

It's always good to learn something from you Armando as always 👍🏼

[@opengateproductions]

As an owner of these lenses, what Armando said in this review is 100% accurate. For the price, you simply cannot beat it. Every time I use these lenses, I feel inspired. And that’s how you should feel every time you pick up your camera. Great review as always brother!

[@miquelalcazar2061]

Eres una inspiración !

Very interesting. Thanks for sharing Mondo

You gained my follow. Very well said about the needs to be wiser on gears acquisition.

Awesome Video Big Bro ❤ This Was So Epic Man I need to get a new Credit Card Now 😂

[@FreshSqueezedLightning]

These are awesome, my only fear is wildly random quality control. I've heard a lot of people say they have had loose or grinding mechanics in certain ones, but I'm wondering if that was the initial releases and if they have gotten any better. If they have, I'd love to buy some

[@johnnybermudez]

Great vid brother...

[@officialjohnanthonymbe]

These look amazing

[@vasilistsaknakis]

Hello Armando that’s a great review right there .What adaptor are you using to pair these lenses on sony’s e mount ?

Hey Armando ! Since you’ve had the DZO Arles, have you encountered any manufacturing issues? (Unusual noise, more resistant focus ring, optical defects, etc.) I’m asking because I’ve seen some people on forums mention a quality control issue, leading to a lot of after-sales service.

[@MichaelOni-w6u]

Please do I need an adapter to use the DZo lenses on the sony FX 3

[@SyvilMedia]

You're shooting on fullframe cameras, but will this lens look good on a super35 like komodo or C70? with a focal reducer maybe? Is it even worth it if you aren't getting the full quality of the lens?

[@CringePanda]

Hey, awesome lens and cinematography! My FX6 should be arriving next week!! Are there cheaper lenses that can be adapted to the FX6 that would have that kind of character? I hear people say Helios or Canon FD...what do you think??

[@mondobytes]

Thank you, in regards to "cheaper" lenses not really. These lenses are truly special, the only thing that comes close are Arri Supreme Primes or Zeiss as I said in my video and those cost 10x more. Canon FD and Helios are specialty lenses, I wouldn't even put them in the same class. Also there's only 1 Helios lens, where you have a full set of 10 with the DZO.

[@Filmwhatmatters]

I been wanting to try the 12mm

[@BlackPartyFilms]

i mean this looks great

[@skullslammer2172]

is it possible for you to make a comparison of nisi athena’s vs the dzo arles 🙏 i’m trying to figure out if the extra money equal better image quality in this case

[@mondobytes]

@@skullslammer2172 I don’t own the Athena’s but from what I’ve seen I prefer the Arles

[@HanNguyen-dp4rp]

What is matte box are you using?

[@simplyfrank72]

@Armando Happy to hear about your experience with these on super35 (as I have a Blackmagic Ursa 12k that I was curious about paring these with). ALL of the examples and KZbin videos I've seen have ONLY been with full frame cameras. I was worried about the loss of "character" from the outer edges of the lens. I currently have a set of Xeens (classic). How would you compare these to the Arles?

[@poti732]

Where are these sample scenes from ? A movie shoot ? Is it done by DZO or you ? Is this a real production or just sample footage for the lenses

[@mondobytes]

@@poti732 All these samples are mine, some are from commercial projects and some personal passion projects.

[@orozcodigitalTV]

Are these lenses available in EF mount??

[@mondobytes]

Yup, mount is interchangeable.

[@dp_zee]

I did a lens test for a movie I'm shooting. Tried the arles... don't know if people are just not use to other cine lenses, or what... but I was NOT impressed. They weren't good. Ended up going with zeiss nano for the film

[@mondobytes]

Strange because they’re very similar to Arri Signature Primes. In fact someone on KZbin did a side by side comparison and I’d argue they were almost identical. The difference was 98%.

[@dp_zee]

​@mondobytes I use signatures quite frequently. They aren't in the same ballpark. color rendition isn't close, And the set I tested which came directly from dzo themselves (they told me where to go and what lenses to use) were mushy . I guess you could say both sets have limited breathing. But beyond that? Arles are def in the budget lens catagory. I found the nisi athenas better (albeit a stop slower)

[@mondobytes]

@@dp_zee I dunno man, that has not been my experience and even seeing the video Cody made the Arri are not 10X better: kzbin.info/www/bejne/gYCaf5uno9B_a5Isi=t_rKHdw3EYF3usfu

They have a noticable Vignet??? Hmmm… 🤔

[@mondobytes]

@@claudio6032 lol you didn’t watch the video 😅

[@claudio6032]

Around 4:00 You said the vignet is Part of their Character. Am i wrong? The Footage you took from the driving Truck is amazing and These Lenses are very interresting. I understood that you like the vignet. I was just surprised about the vignet. I watched many Reviews about them, but no one mentioned the vignet.

[@mondobytes]

@@claudio6032 Got it when I saw your original post with the question mark I understood it as you weren't aware they had vignetting even though I mentioned it in the video. It's definitely a characteristic that I'd prefer to add in post but it doesn't bother me that it has it.
