@@ImAvocado Pretty big difference overall. I did a review on the Pictors in the past if you haven't seen if yet, however the Catta Zooms have full frame coverage, they're smaller overall, lighter and they have the filter cartridge. The lens mounts are also much quicker to swap than the Pictors. Optically, you'd honestly need to test them out to decide.
does the color cuts well between the other two catta ace zooms & also vespid series? with pictor in other reviews, it doesn't cuts well between the zooms and vespids.
I like your videos so much. I learn a lot about videography and technology from your videos. Thank you so much for making your exceptional knowledge and extensive experience available for us free of cost. God bless!
I still prefer the overall look coming out of the Tokinas. Opitcally, they're superior however I appreciate how lightweight the DZO's are compared to the Tokinas.
I think both lenses are amazing. There are pros and cons to each. The Tokinas are built extremely well, have a really nice look however the 25-75 is a bit heavy. The Cattas on the other hand are lighter, cheaper and cover full frame sensors, however they’re not built as well as the Tokinas and aren’t as optically consistent. My suggestion is for you to rent the lenses first to test. A short 2 day rental could save you from making the “wrong” choice. I know that I didn’t give you a clear cut answer but I Hope this helps.
If we only plan on shooting with the Komodo-X is it better to opt for the DZO Pictor Zooms vs the Cattas to save some $ or is there other benefits to the Cattas other than FF coverage? Thanks!
I think that the Cattas have an overall better look, but that's my opinion. I didn't get to mess with it but the rear filter cartridge shows some promise. You're also going directly to the camera (RF) instead of needing an adapter for the Pictors.
No, these are not the ace. These are the mirror versions. They are the same optics as the ace though. And yes, the footage that you see in this video is client work. The Ford GT footage is from a project that I shot for Haggerty marketplace
Great video! I’m torn between the pictors and the catta for my Komodo. I currently use the Vespids but want a zoom to help compliment them. What are your thoughts?
Good question. I currently have the Vespids, the Cattas and the Pictors in my posession and I've shot on them all. I think its only natural for you to go with the Cattas if you've got the Vespids. The reason being, the Cattas have the full frame coverage so IF you go with a larger format sensor (V-Raptor maybe?) you'll have that option wheras with the Pictors...you're tied to S35. Also....you have the option to speedboost the Komodo with the Cattas & Vespids. Not something I'd do personally BUT again, you've got the option :) Thanks for watching!

@@joenicklo Thanks so much for all the information! Very helpful. I just subscribed as well! Do the Cattas and the Pictors have a similar look to the Vespids or are they all a little different in their own way? I love the look of the Vespids.
@@joenicklo thats perfect I would greeatly appreciate it, it sort of answers one of my questions . I use mainly Sony Alpha's and I recently got myself a BMPCC 6K Pro and looking into cinema glass to use on both , sony with EF adapter. With the current sale on the Tokina 10-20 and 35-70 kit on sale i'm trying to decide on which image suits me between it and DZOfilm. I'm not to pressed on full frame vs crop sensor as the BMPCC is cropped and i can used those lenses on my Sony FX30. So looking forward to that video and thant yiou for taking ur time to respond ! You're the best !!!
