First one is fake and second is real. I will not buy both. I won't put cheap glass or plastic in front of high quality expensive lens even if made by hoya unless the intention was CPL, diffusion or star effect types where I can tolerate the reduction in sharpness.
Hi Yannick, Came here from your squarespace post. Thank you for doing the testing. Have you gone back to your local camera shop to check out their 58mm Hoya HD filters? Do their 58mm Hoya HD filters have the same finishing as your 52mm Hoya HD protector? I am asking because I bought two Hoya HD UV filters with two distinct looks from a camera shop in 2015, one 52mm Hoya HD UV filter and the other 77mm Hoya HD UV filter. The 52mm one I bought looks exactly like your 52mm HD protector, with a glossy finish and a chamfered edge. However, the 77mm HD filter I bought from the exact same store shares the same look as the one you ordered online, the 58mm HD protector which you think is counterfeit, a matte finish and no chamfered edge. I have had dirt and sand splashed onto the 77mm filter once, and cleaned it off with relative ease. I also once had a kid who smeared food onto the 52mm in a shoot, and I cleaned it off easily with a tissue. Couldn’t tell if the 77mm was harder to clean because I didn’t suspect it to be counterfeit. I didn’t compare. Is it likely that Hoya HD filters might have two different looks, and both happen to be genuine ones? Really hope somebody from Hoya can clarify. Anyways, thank you for your post.
Hey, stumbled on your video for another reason. I'm thinking about buying a lightmeter, and was looking at Sekonic L-478D variants and trying to find one that may work with Yongnuo yb622n or 685 speedlight. And stumbled on forums talking about that pre-flash messing up meter readings and having to use the FV lock button, wasn't sure what it meant. Do you have a light meter? Does it work for you correctly with and without the pre-flash (FV Lock on/off)?
Is this something that is only an issue when shooting using the iTTL mode? Or does this also need to be changed when controlling the speedlights manually? Thanks!
Can you tell me which device you used here to remotely control the yongnuo YN-622N / TX system? How did you do this ??? ... I have 1x "YN-622N-TX" and 2x "YN-622N"! (What else do I need to remotely control the camera now?)
sorry to 'butt - in' on your channel, but i wanted to reply to you on mr wheeler's site on your last post. but as always correct conflicting evidence is always deleted from there. his testing method is fundamentally flawed at best, ridiculous would be a better word. his understanding of the inv sq law and how or when it applies is so twisted it is unbelievable, he obviously has no clue. i have seen your web site, and his flikr page, and wondering what possible thing have you learned from mr wheeler apart from old glass ?
thanks for the reply. just curious, i can't get anything useful from him, must be me... p.s. your wedding photos, really nice ....you have some stunners in there. ....good luck with your carrier
stuart redford Thx man! I'm glad you like my wedding photos! Yeah the information is generous yet very very clustered. I hope to resume some of it on my blog when I can :)
Dear Yannick! I have read your articles about tonality and depth rendition on different cameras/sensors. Did you try the "ancient" D2Xs? Would it be any better then the D300 and D700 that I have and love? Thanks in advance for your advise! Christoph
Yannick Khong That's a very nice duet! Good luck, you can find them quite inexpensive now and they really have 99 per cent identical interface! I love it when changing bodies in the forest, shooting wildlife - all that happens is you change the crop factor! And they take the same grip and same batteries. Really love the fact that you have put all those info on paper and online (Ken's way of explaining does cost him sometimes few believers :-) Great attitude of two of you guys! RespeK ! (by Ali-G, do you know him?) Have a very nice day! Christoph
