Narcissism to it's maximum, is this some kind of parody?

In order to use Large Format lenses? When will it end?!?!?!
In order to use real mendium format lenses.
I really want andrew to stop spending his money on shit. I've seen him for years buying crap. All that time and money could have been spent on good things.
When does it end it? It ends with medium format, its good enough.
I demand andrew TO SELL all his crap, all lenses all cameras,and only keep the fuji 100, the speedbooster and a planar 80 2.8

You really have to buy the hasselblad speedbooster.
-
Don't forget to buy the metabones hasselblad v to fuji speedbooster and make a decent review. I hacen't seen a single one.

The f35 is ccd the f3 is cmos, I don't think they should look the same.

I disagree about alien colour though AWB colour can be very off at night. If you want to play with things in camera, there is the Sony live view grading app. You could play with hundreds of combinations every day for years and still not exhaust them. And as stated, Andrew's colour profiles.
I don't want to spend any time trying things out, I just want a balanced image without color correcting the way I have it on my stills camera.
I thought there might be a color space problem that got fixed after some time. I guess the A7s is a no go then.

I miss the old A7s
Nice and small, very light, and simply one of the best 1080p images ever for the time.
Is there a way to fix the alien colors?

Relax people, you're not losing your identity because of someone taking your picture.

What's the best price you've seen one used?
Hmm I haven't been looking for iq280s but the iq260 which is more common goes for 4500-6000€ https://www.ebay.de/itm/Phase-One-IQ-260-Digital-Back-Anschluss-PhaseOne-Mamiya/163956548486?hash=item262c926386:g:0IYAAOSwYZJd1~QK#vi__app-cvip-panel

Is this the larger 49mm medium format CCD, or 44mm?
54mm medium format, the real deal. But don't expect good iso performance.
-
This is bad news I was waiting for this as a compact alternative to my medium format CCD.
Btw, if you want nice color, have a look at a phase one IQ280. Modern and old CMOS cameras are sort of color blind, colors are mushy, I believe this comes from color filters favouring high iso performance.

This can't be true but would be awesome.

Fake Identity forming in a internet forum, allright.

Years ago I used to see sets for 20.000k You should have bought that lens I sent you

Absolutely, subject distance dominates DoF, which is why macro is the only way to get bokeh with a phone.
Cool teaser! The aerial shots are particularly impressive - the shots looking down on the plane were really good. I'm thinking you had access to a second light plane from the same organisation? I'm not aware of the performance of the top drones but this seems beyond the reach of those things? I didn't spot any traces of a limited budget or constraints, so that's well done.
I see the f0.95 a lot more in this cut. It seemed a little much to me, but that could be because I was looking for it, so who knows - at this point in the conversation any neutral perspective on DoF is completely gone!
I'm absolutely with you on DoF and low-light both being advantages of the Voigtlanders (and other lenses this fast) - it's a look that I don't particularly mind, but can be compensated for. It's also relatively easy to degrade a shot in post to match this look, so if you want to stop down sometimes but still get a uniform look then that's possible. Here's a shot from another thread about degrading a modern look to a vintage one.
Original side-by-side:
Matching Samyang to Lomo:
It's not perfect but in an edit it wouldn't be that noticeable, especially as you wouldn't be seeing both at the same time, and also the shot/angle would be different.
Interesting about running a 360 degree shutter. It makes sense that if you've got some other factors pushing you into the 'video' look that you compensate by 'overdoing it' on another variable to bring the look back into balance for what you want.
Fascinating.
His shots appear to be perfectly matched.
@Nikkor what are you seeing in the images in the second link? (you have to scroll down a bit). I see subtle differences in the look, but can't tell if they're because the actor is posed differently. I was anticipating doing a test using a still-life to match the images exactly.
He is doing the wrong Math. Can't judge the Images from my small phone, but if he is not lying (a posibility you should always contemplate) then you should see the difference in his Images.

I'm very interested in this and would like to get to the bottom of what you're seeing.
Is it that a wide angle has a shallower DoF? On smaller sensors shallow DoF on wide-angle lenses is very difficult to do, so that would make sense.
Or is it to do with the falloff between what is in focus and what isn't in focus?
I'm 100% sure that there's some kind of engineering or physics principle behind what we're talking about, the challenge is figuring out what it is
There is, dof starts behaving differently the closer you get to large magnifications. I took my time and made the math, no idea were those equations ended up, probably in the Recycling bin.
In Praxis and depending on lens quality it makes things Pop and Look volumetric, The differentiation between in Focus and out of Focus is stronger.
Another way to say it is that the DOF is denser and then quickly fades away vs. the gradual blurring away from the Focus Point that occurs with small formats.
Don't lose your sleep over it, if you like the Look you can buy a baveyes kipon Adapter until you can afford a big sensor camera.

Any idea where "the look" comes from? That's what we're trying to figure out.
The look comes from the DOF, it works different with different magnifications. The closer you get to large magnificactions the "dof" variance speed increases. If you shoot at infinity you won't notice much benefits apart from increased resolution and less noise, but as soon as you get close to middle shots you start noticing the difference.
The result is that a wide shot on 70mm has the same look as a closeup, so you can show an actor suspended in his surroundings, everything looks very plastic-volumetric.
Years ago I made a lot of posts about this but nobody seemed to take them seriously.

I wonder when @Andrew Reid will come up with a Fuji GFX plus Metabones Speedbooster review. Distagon 80 2.8 in it's full glory.

no other 35mm MILC, or DSLR has 16 bit yet.
just add the Sony FX9 S.cinetone color science and 180fps and I will pre order it.
But there are Sensors capable of it https://www.fujirumors.com/fujifilm-x-t3-sensor-can-fujifilm-unlock-full-16-bit-sensor-power-via-firmware-update-or-maybe-come-to-fujifilm-x-h2/

Nice Movie but it felt like a Pilot Episode, is there more coming?
