CTs are a ball of energy. We came to be the third family before age one for our male. Early on he was a nusense for our female mini schnauzer but they became good buds. He lost his bud over year ago. At age 14 he is no longer the self proclaimed biggest baddest thing on four legs on the face of the Earth.
Jon, just coming to this now. Truly wonderful little film. Both visual quality and story. Thank you. I'm amazed you got that quality wide open. I tried my Canon 50 on my Lumix and while it was nice, I think I had more haze wide open at 1.8. Although the sharpness (or maybe "soft sharpness") was about the same. A bit soft for stills, but fine for motion. My feeling is that I shall look for an FD and have more control. Then debate the speed booster for angle of view correction.
Thanks for your video.. is this the STM version of the Canon lens? I got the Canon 50mm f1.8 STM lens and a speedbooster and though the auto focus works when I put my panasonic g85 camera into manual focus mode (and set the switch on the Canon lens to 'MF') turning the focus ring on the lens does nothing... The focus doesn't change and the lens doesn't move in and out to focus (as it does in AF mode).. is this your experience too? Thanks for any feedback
so that lens is like fly by wire so it needs power with the adapter so it wont work if the camera is off or no power is supplied to the camera via lens connection pins
A Canon EF 50mm f1.8 or a Panasonic 25mm f1.7?? Which one is better for a Lumix G7? I’m thinking of buying a third lens for my camera but I can’t decide which.Can you help me? THANKS 🙏🏻
Hey, i have a question regarding the lens. I just purchased the exact same lens and mounted it to my lumix g6, but i can't set the aperture. It always stays on f0.0 Could you tell me how to change it? I just have a generic adapter, as a pure beginner i try to keep it as cheap as possible. Thank you so much in advance!
I'm thinking about getting the Canon 50mm for my GH5 + Metabones for low light, just can't decide whether f/1.4 or the cheaper f/1.8. I kind of figure that the f/1.4 + speedbooster will be too hard to focus anyway, so might as well get the f/1.8?
hi there . If your budget can stretch go for the metabones + sigma18-35mm f1.8 its a fantastic low light combo on gh5 especially now that the ois is in body . 👍
Hey thanks for the recommendation, at this point I am using a Canon 17-55mm 2.8 essentially trading 1 stop for OIS which doesn't bother me too much. Was just looking at the 50mm 1.8 as it's a couple of hundred bucks and pretty small and light
If you're between the 1.8 and the 1.4, go with the 1.8 and save money for your next lens. I literally couldn't tell the difference when watching tons of comparison videos between the 1.8, 1.4, 1.2.
But he's using a speed booster (as opposed to a simpler mount adapter), which corrects for the crop factor using a lens. Most correct in the 0.7x range, if memory serves.
Great Video! I am currently trying the same combo. One question: Manual Focus is not working as it is "by wire" with the 50 mm 1.8 STM lens. How were you able to adjust focus manually ? DId you use an older version of the Canon 50mm ef 1.8 STM ?
Hi there , thanks ! , yep sorry I have the old 'nifty fifty' which is purely mechanical focus so your new style STM wont electronically focus with this adapter . cheers Jon
I bought commlite for my g85, but, unfortunately, it doesn't fit good with all lenses. It doesn't have any stabilization with 50 1.8, but it works well with my samyang 8 mm and Canon 15-85 mm.
Exist many versions of commlite adapters, please could you tell us wich one are you using in this video? Thanks! The amazon link could be great! And maybe, have you test this one with Canon EF-S lenses?
hi there . this is the version I'm using , it works very well with my panasonic gh4 but the olympus omd doesn't like it ! cheers j www.amazon.co.uk/gp/aw/d/B01KLLA4OY/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1482106298&sr=8-2&pi=SY200_QL40&keywords=commlite+canon+m43&dpPl=1&dpID=51J7U7H3kTL&ref=plSrch.
Hey! I know nothing of cameras, but i am very interested in this setup. Can you please spell out the name of the adapter as a reply to this comment? the link does not work for me. I would love a reply since i have the same problem, as a non-knower. too much to chose from ;-)
Hi Know it sounds like a stupid question but can u use manual focus with this adapter and a 50mm 1.8 stm? Just that at the moment i have a 'dumb' adapter and manual focus doesnt work. Thanks
its fly by wire focusing for the stm lens wont work unless there is power to the lens via lens connection pins....i love canon but hate fly by wire focusing for this lens haha
