NewFilmMaker Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 After trying so many different lenses (both anamorphic and taking lenses), I believe this is the best out of what I own....... Voitglander Classic 35mm F1.4 MC Bolex Moller 19/1,5x Raynox Wide Angle Conversion Lens 0.66x Zhiyun Crane Gimbal Version 2 Wide angle - Around 24mm View?? Image are sharp and it looks like that anything beyond 3ft are all in focus when I stop down to F4 Please let me know what you think and show me whats your setup!

tweak Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 I bet you could use a wider taking lens and no WA converter and it would almost be the same but better quality image. Grimor 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are right, they are similar, but I also need to consider the total weight & length of the lenses set up. I currently don't have any "small enough" 28mm lens. Attached are some sample photos The photo above is taken with Olympus OM 28mm F3.5 without conversion lens Olympus OM 28mm F3.5 with the conversion lens Voigtlander Classic 35mm F1.4 Voigtlander Classic 35mm F1.4 with conversion lens Sorry about the quality of the photos, just compare the angle. Also if you are using the IBIS, I believe the 35mm lens is a better choice. Believe me, I did try a lot of different lenses...... I will try my best to upload a testing video asap...... tweak 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tweak Posted April 30, 2017 Share Posted April 30, 2017 Yep, very similar FOV. Those vertical flares are pretty weird though (I assume from converter glass), converter also looks to be adding softness which is to be expected. Could be ok in certain scenarios though.

Man look at this gear porn! I thought I was crazy for owning 16 lenses and only using 4 most of the time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
