    Fuji X-T4

    Meike lenses are based on Veydra but not the same. Veydra are severe focus breathing, but Meike are almost no focus breathing. Maybe, they lost coverage in this modification.

    I think 16mm don't cover APS-C sensor size but only MFT sensor.

    There is absolutely no problem to match these three lenses with the 10-bit F-log.

    I have the, 25, 35 and 50mm. 75% of my shots are made with the 35mm. When I need wider, I put the 25; very rarely I put the 50mm. Hope Meike will release a 20mm or 19mm if I need wider than 25mm and get stuck by a wall indoors.

    Here is a quick XT4 IS test done at the end of the afternoon. No problem with overheating. I shot about 12mn rushes in 45mn without any problem when it was 34 °C in Paris. XT4 hand held with my 50mm Meike cine lens + ND16 filter + lens hood. IS ON; IS boost ON. password : isxt4

    Yes, there is a shaking problem at the start. With the weebill I put off XT4 IBIS. I don't know exactly what happened. May be the wind or the last Weebill S firmware update. Or I would have to manually tune the motors. I am using autotune. I put a Swit 5c monitor on my weebill S to get the 2.35 ratio during shooting. In post, you have to desqueeze the picture. There are many possibilities, depending on the software.

    A music video shot on XT4 + Sirui anamorphic 50mm + Weebill S. F-log 10 bit H265, Editing FCPX, Color grading Resolve with RCM, without LUT.
  8. Not possible : Apple Prores raw is a raw pattern bayer image. GFX is a normal bayer sensor , not the case of XT serie with an Xtrans sensor.
  9. What are your settings? XT3: external mic level adjustment? MixPre3: stereo out gain? and the tone level you used?

    Just a few bad and boring shoots to test my XT4 https://vimeo.com/416181826 password : xt4anamorph 1 / 48s, ISO 1600, ND16 filter, F-log, 400Mbps, NR-4, SH-4 IS mode : IBIS/OIS; IS mode boost : off anamorphic Sirui lens 1.33, F1.8 Exposure adjustment with declic aperture ring with the zebra as a video instrument.

  11. Ready ! Waiting for the end of lockdown🙂
  12. I have the same problem with my nikkor zoom 25-50. Back focus need to be very precise and it can move just with a change in temperature. This is why there is a back focus adjustment ring on the zoom fujinon MK. This Ebay seller https://www.ebay.fr/usr/ramir73?_trksid=p2047675.l2559 sells M42 adapter to Fuji X with a back focus adjustment. I have exchanged messages with him and he will see if he can do something for a Nikon to Fuji X adapter. I’m waiting !
  13. Very good idea. It was with Nikon AI or AIS lenses on my Canon 550D (T2i) that I started shooting my short films in 2011. You get beautiful pictures. Here is a site to identify all the nikon lenses that exist. http://www.photosynthesis.co.nz/nikon/lenses.html
  14. That's it. Start with one standard lens. 35mm for an APSC sensor or 50mm for a Full frame sensor.

  16. Try to put Gaffer on all buttons and holes on the back of the microphone. The wind may not be passing there.
  17. I know but I can’t properly shim the lens or I don’t know how I can. I use a cheap Nikon mount adapter to Fuji X. It’s all metal and well build and no play but maybe it isn’t precise enough about focal flange. Me too I impressed by my test and I’m sure I’ll use it on some projects.
  18. I was wrong it is parfocal. I just found the manual in pdf. But honestly when you focus something near you (about 2 m) there is a small focus shift when you zoom. I filmed in F-Log. DeLog with Color space transform node in Resolve without LUT. Correction expo and WB and I added a bit of contrast and saturation. 😊 http://allphotolenses.com/pdf/c_18/p_3.html
  19. When looking for a zoom for my XT3, I discovered the existence of a 25-50mm nikkor AI. Originally, it was a wide zoom for 24x36mm which went from the standard focal to a wide angle. On the XT3’ sensor, it is a zoom very well centered on the standard focal, a bit like an 18-55 but with a narrower range. I found a copy in very good condition on Ebay for 105 $ + 24 $ shipping. I received it yesterday morning and I did a few quick tests in the afternoon. Pros : Optical quality and build contruction Price All manual with 3 rings: aperture, zoom, focus. Cons : Maximum aperture at F4 (too soft, it must be opened at 5.6 at least to have the full quality of this lens) Not Parfocal. The focus moves when you change the focal length. I chose the AI version because focus throw AI version 130° vs 75° AIS version. If you want to view some boring crapy shots. password: nikkor2550 https://vimeo.com/397291419?activityReferer=1
  20. No hope on the side of old lenses all designed for the 24x36mm. Maybe a company like Meike (when I see the quality of their cine lenses) could release a cine zoom 18-55 mm T 2.9 constant parfocal 10 blades iris a focus throw > 200 degrees APS-C (mounts : M4 / 3, FujiX, SonyE) Around 1500 dollars. Or Sirui by an indigogo campaign. Maybe we could suggest them. An email isn’t expensive. A daydream isn’t expensive too.
  21. Thank you for sharing. But this 28-85 is centered on a basic focal at 50mm for 24x36mm (full frame). I don't have a zoom but only fixed focal lengths. On my shorts I think I use 35mm for 5/10 shots (basic focal length in APS-C) 24mm or 20mm for 4/10 shots 50mm for 1/10 shots I could use an 18-55 instead of these three fixed focal lengths. But a 28-85 would be too off range for me.

    This two Meike cine lenses are fine. Manual focus is very precise with a 270 ° focus throw and with a very smooth feeling. https://meikeglobal.com/collections/meike-cine-lens/products/presale-meike-t2-2-cine-lens-for-fujifilm-x-mount-mk-35mm-t2-2-with-aps-c https://meikeglobal.com/collections/meike-cine-lens/products/meike-25mm-t2-2-large-aperture-manual-focus-prime-low-distortion-mini-cine-lens-compatible-with-fujifilm-x-mount-cameras-x-h1-x-t3-x-t20-x-t10-x-t2-x-pro2-x-e3-x-t1-x-a2-t100-x-e1-x30-x70-x-m1-x-a1
  23. First shot with my new Meike cine lenses (25 and 35mm). It's just a sequence for an actress demo reel. Really satisfied with these new lenses. Pros : - great color rendition and contrast. - almost no focus breathing. - long focus throw - the aperture ring is not linear (exposure adjustment is much easier and precise) - build all metal - price Cons : - 25mm is the widest focal length for X mount. (12 and 16mm cover only MFT sensor) - 50mm and 65mm will be released later, but doesn’t yet exist in X mount. - very sensitive to side flare. The wide shot with the 25mm Close shots with the 35 mm + black promist 1/4 filter 2000 ISO
  24. @kye Thanks for the comment. It’s a father daughter story. The man is a filmmaker kind of no crew no money, nothing. @heart0less Thanks for the comment. Editing is finish. Color grading will be ok in a week, I think. But I need time for sound and music. I almost understand english but I can’t easily write and speak. It's too long and hard to share what I do.
  25. I am color grading my last short film. What do you think of this pictures ? If you want to try something.you can get a trim copy (a few secondes) of original F-Log with this link : https://we.tl/t-LofgsAXmnn
