Introducing the Tuner by Module 8 

Truly we have come full circle in lens design. From engineering the most optically perfect and sharp to now this, a device that undoes all of that. What a crazy world 2023 is.

I'd love to see more controlled tests so we can objectively see how each tuner affects lenses

You know this is a big deal when Moment brought the “A” Team in to do the launch 👍🏻 Remarkable glass!

Sounds so fascinating! Would love to see more tests with these lenses in short narrative/doc scenarios.

One of the most innovative creations I’ve seen, for sure

This is really cool! Great work everyone!

I achieved the same effect with a fungus-infected lens.

The idea is amazing. But the price tag for such a device probably puts it outside for a lot of people. To choose between a better lens or a filter? I think the choice is easy, lens.

Stunning result with these lens adapters, looking for one in FujiFilm X mount

You guys are BREAKING THE GAME, my god that's incredible !

Amazing! Unfortunately there isn’t a Fuji mount version… will buy if they become available.

What an incredibly innovative solution! I love the size and economical choice of the rear glass design, but I would also be interested in a front glass adapter. Totally understand it would be more expensive, but then you wouldn't be limited by the camera or lens choices. Regardless, it's a stunning achievement!

I was ready to back but I use Fuji so now I‘m going to hope it becomes a success and gets a Fuji version

This is definitely super cool. I found a lot of luck using the metabones speedbooster for MFT cameras (most recently with the GH6) paired up with vintage Nikon primes. You get an extra stop of light plus all the characteristics of an old lens. It's not variable like yours is but it definitely brings its own look using actual vintage glass. Pretty awesome to see camera and glass technology develop! I can't imagine the creators of 60s and 70s Japanese Nikkor lenses seeing their glass paired with a pocket size cinema camera with IBIS and ridiculous resolutions. What will the future hold for us now?

Reminds me of the Arri V filters. Taking optically nearly perfect lenses and adding imperfections and (retro) character to it

THIS IS STUPIDLY AMAZING!!! I'M EXCITED!!

homestly, the only downside to this is the limited mount options and native adaption options. Im on L mount and probably wont ever use this, but hopefully its a success and the market has a demand for this kind of product

Saying goodbye to my diffusion filters. I am buying this.

Leave a lot of fingerprints on your glass and you'll get a similar effect.

Which look would you get? L1, L2, or L3??

The innovation is he spent 4 years finding a universal way to reduce the resolution of modern lenses

"subtle" it looks like it went from greasy finger prints to vaseline.

It’s a variable pro mist filter. Gimmicky

Ah bummer... was hoping for a LUMIX L-Mount option

I would love to see test footage that isn't quickly edited so that I can see the quality of the glass - specifically L2

I’ve got my eye on that L2!

I think the biggest challenge ya'll will face is convincing people to drop $2,000 on an adapter for EF glass that actively degrades the image... That is preposturously expensive. And I'm not even a hater, I like seeing Moment's growth... But this...this is tough to watch.

They look cool, but $2,000 a piece is crazy. I'd consider like $500...

So a set of these plus the moment anamorphic adaptor and a fast zoom and you have a full cinema vintage anamorphic glass kit for 4k vs 40k?

Gahhhhh must try that module 3!!!!

Im so interested to see version 3 paired with there anamorphic adapter.

will wait for E Mount

I’d like to volunteer as tribute to test it with 5D3 w/Magic Lantern or EOS M w/ ML. Lol depending on if The Tuner is able to shoot full frame. I also have BMD pocket 4K w/CDNG FW, BMCC 2..5K, Canon R5. All jokes aside this looks amazing

😦 take my money

Would love to see swappable mounts

hey ! any chance to get a L-mount version soon ?

There should be an E to E mount for this one.. Imagine making all the boring G-lenses much better...With auto focus.. oh lord...

Nice! I hope a version without the electronics for Nikon F mount lenses will appear in the future. (At a lower price point). Of course, Nikon F users can just get an F to EF adapter.

@MAKEARTNOWCHANNEL needs to get on board with this. Seems right up Josh's alley. I could see a collab.

So it’s a vaseline on UV-filter adapter?

L1 just makes everything blurrier with lower contrast. Vaseline on your lens seems cheaper

So unique! I’m excited for this one!

Man, this thing for photography would be so neat too.

Brings to mind vintage amp emulator plug-ins.

Would love to rent this item first, before I commit to purchase.

I really wanna try this with my moment anamorphic

Done earlier today. Can’t wait. Next up: variable anamorphic bokeh.

I like L2 the most

need 1 like YESTERDAY

Please make a PL mount version !

So it's basically a 1000$ Mist Filter, did I sum that up correctly?

Where can I see some before/after and different strength frames to compare? images on kickstarter are low-res and couldn't tell the difference that much...

I hope these aren’t silly questions: -will this only support EF lenses? -if I choose E mount at the end of the campaign will that let me use EF lenses on my Sony E mount camera (similar to an EF to E metabones adapter)?

What makes anyone think that lenses didn't used to be sharp? What's going on here? It looks like Moment has launched a kickstarter for a product that makes your modern lens look like...a bad lens!

which EF lenses would you recommend to use with SONY bodies for this tuner? looking to retain the autofocus if possible

These need bayonets that are interchangable for different mounts wherever possible. That could be an incredible unlock for multi-body shooters.

yesterday all day I watch abouth Canon k35 how I can buy, today I saw this amazing

Please do more scientific, controlled tests, like Geralt Undone. 1000 bucks is too much for not tested equipment.

I require this

Damn this is dope🔥

Is it compatible with FUJIFILM mount? 👍 📸

I just have a really quick question, having the fx30 right now, with this Tuner does it allow me to use FE mount lens on it as well? Or just the EFmount and, etc..

These look great! Unfortunately my Z Cam E2 doesn’t have a lens mount this will work with. And any chance of making a video showing a bunch of with clips shot with and without the adapters in different environments? I would love to see how much change they make to the look.

Lets get some footage of the L3 plus the 1.33x anamorphic adapter.

Wow! Will it be compatible with Sony E-Mount lenses in the future?

There will be any option to use this for mobile? I mean some adapters for that or mobile version? ❤️ Its simply amazing!

Hey will they work with Zeiss Milvus Ef mount ? And how do the effect of the adapter looks like on f4 or 5.6 ? Thanks!

Soooo epic!

Damn I NEEEEED one!

Interesting. Reminds me of the Blacking 7 lenses a bit.

Can someone ELI5 the appeal of this look / aesthetic? Is it to give footage a different look and just another option?

So you could get the samyang anamorfakes and the l3 and get a great anamorphic look

Guys, you misspelled whoa

Looks like finger prints and sweat on the camera lens

Does it work with Sony E-Mount Lens?

Looks awesome & does an awesome job. Like someone commented, brought out the A team for the task 🦾💯🔥 I personally prefer the L1 & L3 look, specially the L1. The questions I have are: 1. Can you use the tuner on Fuji X Mount bodies? 2. Can you attach Fuji X mount lenses on to the tuner & will the autofocus still be working?

i hate to say this but for the price, why would i get this over a stack of Tiffen filters? They seem to be doing a similar thing to what you guys are doing for a fraction of the price and it just seems needlessly expensive. also there are brands like Aurora making drop in filters for adapters like the Sigma MC-21 for a behind-the-lens solution. For the price this is certainly DOA.

Kind of curious could you stack this on top of a Metobones speedbooster Ultra .71x?

Is moment planning on coming out with other lens mounts aside from EF for these Module 8 vari-tunes? I would have picked some up from kickstarter if they can in an E-Mount.

I'll stick with my Super Takumars, Canon FD's & Minolta Rokkors thanks.

There’s something call mist filter tho

I'd put money down if there was Nikon - Fuji

First? I like the look of the second. Does this support canon RF?

That's exactly how my old Nikon lenses look when at f1.4. Like, exactly, I'm looking at it in another screen as I type this because I am in disbelief. I remember thinking "These are soft" and would barely go below f4 after witessing that. You're telling me people want to pay for something like this? On purpose? Just because the guy says they modeled it after the K-35s? The K-35s are an indusry standard because of the beautiful micro-contrast that gives it so much depth, and the way their specific coating renders skin-tones and color. The softness and aberration and the artifacts is something that looks great in contrast with the level of detail they provide, but you made a product focused solely on the imperfections of the lens, and those imperfections are exaggerated and bleed into the focused areas? This is horrible.

Hey Moment Team, Another great product on KS! Some questions: 1) on your compatibility list, did not see the A7S3 and A74. Since they’re E-mount, I’m presuming it is supported but want to make sure 2) did not see on list of EF lenses: Are the EF 16-35/4, 70-200/2.8 iii (only saw ii), and 85/1.4 supported? Hope these lenses are supported 3) So I shoot both Sony A7S3 and A74 as well as Canon R5 and 5C, but haven’t used vintage and anamorphic lenses so newbie with these looks. I use CineMatch to match the colors if I mix the two cameras on some projects. I’m planning on getting 2 or 3 vari tuner adapters. Since I have two different mounts (E and RF), I’m not sure how which look to get for each mount. Too expensive to get all, 3 looks for each mount is 6 adapters. Any suggestions on the combos (look + mount) since you worked on both Sony e-mount and Canon rf-mount cameras.

Now, I haven't shot on the super baltars but were they like THAT wide open?! I heard they were soft but really?

Backed!

YUHHHHHHHHHH

Maybe RU-vid isn’t doing this device justice and surely these dudes wouldn’t have wasted their time but this seems an example of group think delusion. If the effect is to make everything seems soft and out of focus then great but who on earth would want that. The examples of the footage look awful. I really must be missing something.

What’s supremely ironic to me is that now that this look will be widely available to anyone, I bet it’s going to very quickly loose it’s charm and fall out of favor. Rarity is a big part of what makes “the vintage look” so sought after, and without that it will suddenly become quite pedestrian.

are the looks presented in this video desirable? i find them too blurry and like out of focus. i don't see how this resembles the film look.. do people actually want these looks? i mean yes, the film look is desirable, but how is this like film..? :\

To achieve this result, simply apply a small amount of oil or butter on the camera boom 💥 You'll obtain the same outcome without needing to spend money on lens 😅

I can't believe there is no micro 3/4 nor canon EF mounts.😭

Am I missing something here?

cool gagit gear

looks like a black mist pro filter

If these were pl mount I’d be all over them.

cool gagita

Voice over is familiar

Take my money.
