Thanks for supporting the G85. I'm a new G85 owner and on the look to hit more like buttons for quality G85 content like yours.

You're very welcome Dan! I enjoy making them. Thank YOU for watching to support the channel!

When you edit nighttime shots just use the noise reduction settings in your editing program. Depending on what your shooting this works amazing and can kill almost all of the grain, but it does reduce sharpness on detailed surfaces, so doesn't work great for certain types of photography but for the types of things I shoot at night it like cars, neon signs, reflections, etc it works great.

Great video, Nolan. I remember watching some of your first videos about 10 months ago and it's been a real joy to see how quickly you are progressing in your filmmaking career. I think it's a powerful statement showing what a young motivated photographer can do in particular with micro four thirds gear in this current craze of full frame everywhere.

Thanks Gerald! Just doing the best i can with what i have, and mft is certainly up for the task! 👌

@BexCatherder 5 лет назад

Very cool, Nolan!! Thanks much!! I'm actually looking at the Sigma 16 as my next lens because I really want something much faster than the kit lens I have now. My dream lens is the Voigtlaender 17.5 mm but it's so far out of my price range. Also, since I often self film for my home movies, I really wanted the Panny 8-18mm but also a little pricey. So I'm pretty sure it's going to be the Sigma 16.

@NolanGunn 5 лет назад

Thanks!! Yeah that 17.5 is gorgeous but sooo expensive 😥 the sigma 16 is pretty great! I'm loving it so far!

@kasperluna 5 лет назад

Hoping to get your take on the Olympus 12-40 2.8 against your pick of the Pana 12-35 2.8 as a fast zoom in your dream kit. Aside from Dual IS and relative weight, the 12-40 seems to be on par if not better than the 12-35 in other aspects such as manual focus (with the focus clutch), parfocal characteristics, nearly all-metal build quality, and in many markets, a better value for the price.

@NolanGunn 5 лет назад

The Olympus pro line is for sure waaaay nicer in the build quality department. And the manual focus clutches on them are pretty amazing 👌 it really depends I guess, if build and manual focus are super important to you, the 12-40 makes a lot of sense! That dual IS capability in the pany just sounds so incredible for myself 👌

With each +1 stop (iso or aperture) the sensor receives twice much more light than with the previous stop. That means that there is 2x more light if you jump from Iso 200 to 400, or go from 2.8 to 1.8. For instance, if you just increase your iso from 200 to 400 and open your iris from 2.8 to 1.8, the sensor is receiving 4 times more light. than with iso 200 at 2.8.

@NolanGunn 5 лет назад

You may be into wedding films but your situations are so much similar to any one else's. For instance, you say you have two lenses of f1.2 and you don't need to fiddle with the settings when you change lenses makes so much sense. So many times it has happened that I come back from shoots to find that the settings have ruined my footage. Thanks for all the info.

For sure! Changed settings can really screw you over. Custom settings have saved me so many times! Let me know if I can help you with anything 👍🏼

Just bought a G85 with 12-35mm f2.8, should I also get the 42.5mm or 25mm f1.7 ? Please let me know I want to get a prime lens :)

@NolanGunn 4 года назад

I would say the 42.5 would be a great portrait length lens for longer interview shots! You already have the 25mm covered with the 12-35. You would just get better lowlight and bokeh with the 25mm than the 12-35. But I would say go with the 42.5! I think it's also Dual I.S. compatible as well 👍🏼

Liking the content, brother! May I know if the Sigma Contemporary Lenses have fly-by-wire focus rings or not? I'm doing video/film so I don't really need AF and having experienced FBW focus rings for manual focusing on video scares me to take a look at these lenses.

Yeah so all of them are focus-by-wire like you said. So not great for manual focus! One of the biggest things I dislike about this line of lenses for sure!

@Jphizzle96 4 года назад

Hi Nolan! Really appreciating all your g85 videos. I’m currently stalking eBay looking for a good deal. My plan is to get g85 as my first camera and practice a lot this summer and get very familiar with it. Then over next couple years upgrading to a gh5/gh5s and maybe a blackmagic 4K 4/3 mount after that. I like this plan because I’ll be able to use all the glass as I upgrade. Couple questions: 1. is there a reason you don’t use in body noise reduction as a way to reduce noise on a low light image? Does NR lower image quality? 2. I haven’t seen you mention fly by wire focusing in any videos yet, is that not a problem for you? I hear from many filmmakers it is very annoying for manual focus. For that reason I’m looking at getting an Olympus pro 12-40 2.8 as my first lens instead of native Panasonic. Any experience with that Olympus lens or any comments on fly by wire focusing vs linear? Thanks!!

@NolanGunn 4 года назад

Hey! That sounds like a great plan! Very well thought out. So noise reduction isn't a huge deal one way or the other, but any noise reduction in-camera will take away a bit from the sharpness of the image. And because of the lack of processing power, if you need noise reduction you should just go with a Red Giant or Neat Video noise reducer which maintains much better quality than in-camera. Does that make sense? Also, I would HIGHLY recommend shooting with a manual focus ring and NOT fbw like you mentioned. If you don't use manual focus much then it's not a big deal, but im constantly manually focusing so it's a deal-breaker for wedding films. Otherwise, yes! I've used some of Olympus' pro series with the focus clutch and they are amazing! Great quality and super great for focusing if you get the ones with the focus clutch 👍🏼

I've lost 2 auctions on ebay trying to buy a G85 from a private owner. Are those online stores the sell on ebay reliable? I don't know why but I prefer buying from an only owner but it seems like all the good ones are gone. I guess one of them online stores might have to do. Thanks for the video, I have you and Albert Fast bookmarked for g85 settings. As soon as I get my hands on one I will set my camera up like one of you guys.

The G7 is a really solid camera! But if you can't afford, you could get a used Canon rebel camera for really cheap and a nicer lens 👍🏼 for instance a canon t6i with the Sigma 18-35 (or 17-50) would be an amazing start.

@NolanGunn 5 лет назад

Like always it all depends on what youre shooting! I personally would go with the sigma trio set. Small, fast, sharp. But if you need a zoom and you dont care about size, the 18-35 is amazing! 👌

@AmazingKitchen 5 лет назад

@@NolanGunn Do you think the 18-35mm Art will be sharper with better colour?

@NolanGunn 5 лет назад

I really cant speak for the 18-35, but zooms (typically) arent as sharp as primes. I would think the primes would be a little sharper, but ive seen footage from the 18-35 and its gorgeous! So really you cant go wrong either way. I would say the 18-35 is much much bigger. So just keep that in mind!

So what you recommend for low loghy video on Panasonic G85 digma 16mm. Is lower the shutter speed? But then the shots will be very slow. Any tips?

@NolanGunn 4 года назад

Make sure you're shooting F/1.4 to let in the most light. Otherwise, with 24p video try to shoot at a 1/50 shutter speed so you won't get that blur. Other than that, I would invest in lights if you really need better lowlight.

Hi Nolan, Is there any crop in G85's 4k 24fps or 30fps?

@meshach2498 4 года назад

Also I'm very curious to know this, which one would be the right choice whether m43's Sigma 16mm 1.4 or getting speedboaster and Sigma 16mm 1.4 ef mount. Will the Sigma with speedboaster make any difference?

@NolanGunn 4 года назад

I'm not sure the sigma 16 has a Canon mount, but yes! The G85 has I think a 1.1-1.2 x crop (really minimal) in 4K. But for me I'm really enjoying the speedbooster! The Canon mount lens selection is great! And you add a stop of light 👌🏼

@meshach2498 4 года назад

Thanks buddy, Also want to know your thoughts about panasonic 14-140mm lens. As I'm planning to pick a g85 in some time soon, where in India g85 with 14-42mm kit lens it costs around 650$, on the other hand with 14-140mm kit lens it costs around 1000$. Do you think 14-140mm is worth to buy or should I pick the gh5 with 14-42 kit lens and get the viltrox speedboaster. Kindly suggest me some good ef mount lenses (zoom lens and prime lens). Thanks again!

@NolanGunn 4 года назад

@@meshach2498 so what I'm using a lot of now is a GH5, viltrox efm2 ii, and a sigma 18-35. It's been a killer combo! Obviously pretty expensive. It really depends, what are you primarily shooting? If I was to go general, I would say get a speedbooster and a zoom, either the Sigma 17-50 or 18-35. If you want prime, then probably a 35mm (sigma, Rokinon DS, or yonguo if you want cheap). If you want native, then the 25mm 1.7 is a cheap good place to start, and then upgrading to the 1.4 or 1.2 in the future. Or a happy medium is the sigma 16 1.4 with is great!
