Was so inpired by that MaxMara piece, that decide to shoot my first wedding in this style.

It was shoot with Fuji X-T20 and 18-55mm F2.8-4 with Tiffen HDFX 1 on it. For some stupid reason i shoot at 4k, so that's a lot of rolling shutter. More then that I turned off the stabilisation on lens... Yeah, im not good cinematographer.
Any way, client like this thing and i like it too!
But next time no 4k and Stab -> On.

PS pass is maxmara

You mean the stabilisation settings? Yes, only native lenses communicate with the body (or maybe the metabones as well, not sure). It's not a big deal for me, the camera remembers your previous setting, so next time you turn it on, it just asks if the settings are still right.

How dp you change your apperure on Sigma 18-35? Is it EF or Nikon mount? I thouth Lens Turbo doesnt have electronic contacts, so its only some manual way to change apperture.

On a Nikon speedbooster, there is ring for change it, but what about Lens Turbo?

Does it have any sense at all to shoot ALL-I if you deliver via youtube and vimeo?

Hey guys! Realy need some reference. Do you know something similar trippy stylish like this one https://vimeo.com/207288397 ? With parallel reality/dream.

If you're intending to build out a full set of FD's, I would get a speedbooster...I own an Ultra FD to M4/3 but my FD set ends at 20mm at the widest...at the time the XL was not available...wider than 20mm the FD's become very expensive and slow...to get wider I use a Schneider wide angle adapter that makes the 20mm 30 percent wider or a 14mm...if I need to go wider still, I find that I can use the SLRMagic 12mm and the images match the more classic look closely, so that when shooting in VlogL matching the lenses works to my satisfaction. The wide angle adapter was converted from bayonet to 77mm filter thread so it can screw onto any of my lenses which are also standardized to 77mm...the adapter is large and heavy, but gets me down to wide with my Nikon and FD lens sets.

What adapter do you use to use Nikons? Is there any Nikon-FD adapters?

Uh, i do my research and realize that canon FD is a really nice option for vintage lenses to adapt. But FD-EOS adapters have that poor quality optic element on it (on a cheap adapters) and ones with good optice out of my budget. Well, i dont need EOS, but also i dont find any AI-FD to adapt Nikors i have. One more problem - there is no EOS-FD to make Ai-EOS-FD combo...     

Any suggestions? What vintage lenses do you use, guys? And how you adapt them?

I would imagine the 80D would smoke it for stills and there are lens choice advantages, particularly on the wides.

But having said that, you could get the G80 with a smart speedbooster for less money and reduce the bridge the lens gap and make a dent on the low light as well.

Whereas the advantages the G80 has of 4K and the IBIS (not to mention small primes in MFT format) and form factor are not something that you can bring to the 80D. Or, it seems, can Canon this side of 2020

Thats why the G80 is the sweet spot for me.

The one that could have been, if Fuji had IBIS, would be the X-T20.

What smart speedbooster are you talking about? Metabones? Or what brand?

Uuuh, so many great suggestions! I have D5500 for a year and enjoy the image. But i realy like that liberating possibilities, that comes with 5 axis IBIS. So i just purchased GX85 and original 12-35. But a havent seen any great examples with this camera and not certain about image. I`m plan to buy cheap focal reducer and some vintage lenses for shallower DOF and more cinematic look. But again im not certain can i get simmilar image i have with d5500.
What about AF on Oly? I plan to buy gimbal, so AF is important for me.
I just want to learn more, experimenting more, so i look for IBIS to free my hands and creativity.

Hot topic! Guys, so what about non-log "flat" profiles like Cine-D and Flat Nikon profile? If its a linear color space, do we completle lose those information opposite to logarithmic color space?

You can adapt less onto the FD mount. 

Ok, thank you for response! Any suggestions on which brand of focal reducer to buy? I almond find 2 options - Roxen (around $80) and Turbo Lens II (around $160 on ebay). Is there any difference between two?

Ok, it make sense! But is FD worse then EF in this terms?

@maxotics and what about other flat profiles on 8bit cameras? Like Cinelike-D on Panasonics or Flat profile on Nikon?

Thank you for an answer, Tim! I just don't understand why EF, coz most of them don't have manual aperture ring.

Hey there! Just've ordered gx85 and looking for some cheap focal reducer to adapt vintage lenses. I actually don't have any, so want to have options.

What mount is most adaptable? So I can buy focal reducer with this mount and then just buy simple dummy adapters to use on this reducer.

For example FD to m4/3 focal reducer and some OM to FD, Nikon F to FD, m42 to FD. I live in Russia, so some m42 options will be good.

And what focal reducer do you recommend? Except metabones obviously (for a price reason).

Have similar question and situation. Really like my Nikon D5500 for that color, easy grade flat profile. But i just wanna to experiment more. And IBIS free your hand for this. No monopod, no shoulder rig, just your hands and this amazing IBIS. But i every footage i`ve seen from gx85 and g85 was so videosh... Cant find any cinematic example with shose cameras.

So i like DR, depth of field and color from d5500 and stabilisation from panny. Cant make any decision
