Hey there! My name is Sam. I am a freelance commercial photographer and filmmaker based here in Malaysia.
I post of street photography, film photography as well as discussions about photography and filmmaking in general. I also share my experience and advice working as a freelance photographer and filmmaker for the past 7 years. If this is something you're interested in, feel free to stick around!
If you have any questions or topics you'd love me to talk about, feel free to ask me!
I would love to work with you and other photographers and creators. Let's get something started!
I love your blog men since day 1 thank you for sharing more tips and knowledge about camera and lenses , you are my inspiration about photography , and it's amazing, I'm Canon user too I wish I could have like that canon zoom lens, 70-200mm watching from Philippines
My top 5: EF 16-35mm f4 L IS; RF 24-105mm f4 L IS USM; EF 70-200mm f4 L IS II USM; EF 100-400mm f4.5-5.6 L IS II USM; Zeiss Classic 100mm f2 Makro ZE. My next 5: EF 11-24mm F4 L; EF 35mm f1.4 L II USM; EF 85mm f1.4 L IS; Zeiss Classic 135mm f2 APO ZE; NFD 200mm MACRO f4 (converted to EF mount).
You said that the flat front of the camera is a problem with early Canon bodies, but this is the last rangefinder they made. I think they just didn't want to add a grip until they switched to SLR-style cameras since Leica's rangefinders have flat fronts
This is the worst comparison dude there’s virtually no way to tell from completely different images, different styles, different lighting… it could be 20 different lenses
Update: Tilta now makes a cage for the R3. To my hands it feels better, especially the main right side grip, also a bombproof looking set up that feels much more secure. Again thanks for the video!
great content man, glad I found your channel, even if there's a bunch of stuff I already kind of know or understand, I like the way you lay it out and remind people to explain from a personal use case perspective. (I know this is an older video of yours but still a nice one to watch for the first time.
I like the idea of a 0.58x viewfinder, and shoot a lot of 28/35mm but in the case of shooting with an 80mm lens, is it ridiculous to even do with a 0.58x viewfinder because the frame lines would be so small? Maybe with a 1.4x magnifier?
It looks pretty interesting for the price, thanks for the review. I've been looking at this lens for a Fuji GFX as you can get it with a G mount adapter, and there's very little else available in 28mm. The TTArtisan 28mm may be a better performer in some ways, but the close focus on this Mitakon is very appealing. I use a MIR 10-A 28mm for video which focuses to 20cm, creating some amazing possibilities for compositions, but it vignettes quite a bit on full sensor photos. I'd love Mitakon to do a 28mm or 35mm version of their 65mm f1.4 (G-mount).
Beautiful camera! Yo please let your fellow leica gang friends know that I was just kidding when I posted that video dissing leica people. I was just jealous.
I wonder how much 7Artisan puts into research and development, or do they just copy popular lens designs??.... How long before Leica won't have funds to do R&D? Will 7Artisan still produce amazingly cheap lenses then??... #justasking
Great video, great explanations and comparisons. I've watched so many of these and yours felt like the one I could relate to the most because you really cover the details
You can’t see the difference on the internet. Print it 10x10 put it close to each other and any good professional will tell you. But because 90% of the photos are for internet use. Before spending so much money for a lens you should ask yourself what you are doing with your photos.
