where are u man ? are u ok ?

We miss you, Mr. Mattias. Hope you are well, and hope more videos come soon…

Come back I need you

I respect Laowa for always coming up with weird-ass focal lengths

As Pentaxians will know, 15mm is such a nice focal length on APS-C. Looks like it'd be a bunch of fun with the Pixii.

Dear Matthias, Since your review of the Nokias Lumia 1520 and 1020, all smartphone reviews in youtube look garbage, your reviews have souls, something alive in it. We need you back in smartphone's reviews industry.

The speed which with I clicked this knowing I'm not going to get this lense or this camera but just because I like whatever you upload...

First time I watched first! Im a big fan! Been watching you a long time :-)

Good to see some new M-Mount equipment hitting the market. Thanks for the video.

Hope you are well

I hope things are well with you and your family, I miss your very entertaining videos, my interest in older or more unusual cameras made them among my favourites. I hope we will hear from you again.

Hi Its been a while since we see you ? Hope all is well ?

Nicely done, brief and precise.

Miss your videos..

I've been using the 15mm end of my 15-45mm kit lens on my fuji and it's surprisingly fun to use. Might pick this up because focus by wire feels weird sometimes.

I have their 6mm lens for MFT. And it's quite something. I recently got to use it for some 360° panoramas but that's a skill I need to learn and improve a lot. What I dislike is the included lens cap. I got the cine version and it comes in a nice pelican case... But the lens cap just falls off. It's not magnetic or screwed.

Hey Mattias, I think a camera particularly you will appreciate is the Panasonic S1. Image quality, high ISO, build, screens are all amazingly ahead of their time. And it’s an absolute bargain these days. Also the L mount is very vast now.

Great video as always , amazing pictures. I have a request for you. Can you make a video comparing Leica M10 and Pixii camera as a Pixii costs almost same as used Leica M10? That would be very helpful !! Thanks in advance.

I miss your videos. Your content is so different to other usually gear release focused channels. For example, I've watched your videos on the Pentax Q series of cameras probably 20 times. I hope you are well Mr. Burling.

Hey Mattias, are you ok? It's been a while

All these new lens brands is a very interesting development in the photography world So many options these days

sweet.... I think I need it :D my 21 Voigtlander is f 4.5.... and on M8 or RD-1 well in bright daylight ok.

Nice to see the GFX 50R; I wanted a Pixii so bad but ended up with an 50R when I found one "bargain" quality used for super cheap that works like new. Never was a fan of ultra-wide focal lengths, the PanaLeica 15mm on MFT is pushing it for me at 30mm equivalent. This would be what, ~23mm on a Pixii? I know a lot of people swear by 24 and 28mm, maybe I'll give it a go again with 8:3 crop since I prefer that over 65:24 of xpan (it's like 64:24 compared to 65:24, but my favorite aspect ratio is 4:3 and it feels better, that or 21:9).

If comma is acceptable I would consider this for some Astro photography. Interesting looking lens 😊

Take a look at the Lumix GM-1, the smallest camera in the world with interchangeable lenses and a 16 megapixel micro four thirds sensor, sounds exciting!

Let me know if you can get an affiliate code for this for Australia, as I'm pretty sure I'll get one of these eventually.

At 15mm I expect the rangefinder indicator just says "It's in focus".

Do you still own Viltrox 13 1.4 and could you compare those wide angle lenses on apsc or FF cameras?

Is the rangefinder coupling accurate "right out of the box" or is it user-adjustable like the 7Artisans lenses?

I would love to know how the vignetting and sunstars look on this.

Hi Mattias , I'm looking for maybe a 50mm lens ( looking for a tele type lens ) - any recommendations for the Pixxi so it does not obscure rangefinder etc ? Thanks,Paul.

Great video! Out of curiosity, do you think Pixii will fix the focusing patch overlap issue in the future?

Mattias come back

Nice Hermes 3000

Do you bother with using a viewfinder for this or just zone focus and point it at things?

New vids please

Focus inside itself 😂
