It does fit on EF. I was referring to the speedbooster which has a glass element that prevents this particular lens from working. It’s pretty common for this to happen
Wow!!! ....this definitely deserves more than 500 views. I am an amateur videographer and I was completely captivated by this production and forgot that it was a documentary and thought I was watching a big budget film. Congrats to you and your crew, you guys did a fantastic job.🍻
Hey Tim, awesome review! Quick question: would the EF mount work on the Komodo X with the Canon EF>RF 0.71x adapter? You've mentioned on the Speedbooster the element touches the glass of the adapter. Trying to figure out whether it's just a Metabones issue of if it would be for any adapter? Thanks!
When you say “calibrate” them, do you mean the back focus adjustment ring was adjusted, or do you mean the lens was shimmed, as well? I had a set for a couple of weeks and discovered that the softness I was experiencing was due to the lens needing to be shimmed, as the back focus ring did not have enough adjustment and this was definitely not obvious during tests. Made a HUGE difference. The lens went from being very soft to being absolutely acceptably sharp. I was impressed.
I thoroughly enjoted this lens review and how you did it, really nice. The Vespid primes looks good but in my opinion the Canin FD have something to them that I kinda enjoyed. All the lenses look good. Keep uk the good work.
Looking at a small iPhone screen I thought everything looked great :) there was a few differences with sharper between highlight with the window, but you’d have to be very concerned with your visual storytelling. I’d say the indoor scenes seemed slightly more pleasing on the FDs, for the outdoor shots no opinion. Maybe should rewatch this on a proper screen and see if there are more obvious differences then :)
I know what you experienced all too well. Wrapping a project can feel wonderful, yet followed by an empty void. The affirming feeling of purpose has left the room with the finishing of the project, but it is only temporary. The "adrift at sea" feeling makes perfect sense as creatives strive to always be creative. When I'm not working it can feel like failure....but it's not. It's just the pause before I start on the next project. Until the next project begins, recognize the feeling for what it is and let it go. Take some time to be "uncreative" and know that you have to refill the well before you take on the next project. Don't let these feelings distract you from being available for your next project. It will come. It always does.
I recently got the Vespid 21, 40 and 75 and like them very much. Lots of character, minimal focus breathing and good color matching between lenses. The 21, 40 and 75 set is a great range, and I don't miss a 35mm at all. The 40 does what I normally use a 50 for, as I like a slightly wider focal length. I may add the 28 down the road, but will probably get the Vespid 90mm macro first.
I know what you’re feeling. Not quite to the extent you’ve experienced your depression but when you pour so much in you have to be poured into as well. Praying for you bro! If you need anything just holler. 🤙🏽
My 2 cents: I try not to tie my sense of self-worth to praise from others. Create what you think matters. OTOH, we all have clients, which leads to creative burnout: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-p8abrS7Y4ak.html
