@AlessandroBK1 3 года назад

Ok, that was one of the best lens comparison that I have ever seen.

@Humcrush 3 года назад

Thank you!

@nathanbennett2432 3 года назад

Agreed such an amazing review! Just bought 3 because of this review (16,25 and 50)

@sevkicevikfilm 3 года назад

I agree 100%!!! This review is amazing!

@emmanuelsproelants1299 3 года назад

@@sevkicevikfilm Exactly! I bought a my first camera and my first lenses ever (DC G90 and 25 and 85)

@rockn6423 2 года назад

Agreed. Quite in depth and visually appealing.

@7michaelwright 3 года назад

Can we take a moment and appreciate how beautiful the model is

@SeanvanBerlo 3 года назад

I'm not even excaggerating when I say uou are one of the most knowledgeable and expert sources of videomaker content on RU-vid here, thank you so much!

@Humcrush 3 года назад

Thank you, sir. Gerald Undone kicks my butt in terms of thoroughness, but he is self-admittedly not a filmmaker, so his perspective is a bit different.

@jermdawgg 3 года назад

Thank you so much for taking the time to run through all those tests. I can't wait for the addendum to this video when the 8mm gets here!

@N30Jin 3 года назад

This has to be one of the best reviews of any set of products I've seen. Great job! Looking forward to part 2!

@StephenBranagan87 3 года назад

This is one of the most comprehensive and informative lens tests I’ve ever seen. I’m very much looking forward to Part II and you have earned a subscriber to lighten up that cold, dark heart. Bravo.

@MCO_group 3 года назад

First not-boring 7 lens review ever seen. Straight to the point, fast, not rushing... and CLEAR. Thanks!

@aybee5908 3 года назад

The best in depth review of these lenses I´ve seen so far. That gives a really good impression, what to expect for the (little) money. I´ve ordered the same kit of lenses from Meike Global and really looking forward to test them

@krimsonfunk Год назад

This is probably the most informative lens focal length purchase decision making video there is out there for newcomer Filmmakers . GREAT JOB ! ❤

@alexandruciornei1908 Год назад

Fabulous description with clear examples!! In my opinion, this is the best presentation for teaching about lenses. Simple and very effective!! Thank you for spending your valuable time giving to us your experience!!

@sandboxsounds 3 года назад

Thank you for this phenomenal lens comparison, I'm not sure I've ever seen such a comprehensive and helpful lens test. Truly incredible.

@Dwayne_M 3 года назад

Love this vid! was really looking into the IRND issue and ended up here !! One of the most interesting lens tests Ive seen in a while, usually dont like how they are presented, this one seemed informative especially with the focal length field of view over lay and logical focal length rearrangements when comparing.

@reiality305 3 года назад

Thank you so much for this video! I've been thinking about getting these lens for sometime and this review is quite possibly the most thorough and informative I've seen. Keep on being awesome!

@tallerdeficcion 3 года назад

This is golden, just what I was looking for! I have been wondering and comparing between purchasing either the 6k-4k and it all came to the lenses factor, you just saved me! pretty awesome, carry on!

@kevinjinkwankim3303 3 года назад

Great review! The quality of this video is crazy, you really deserve more viewers.

@TheWayfarerFamily 3 года назад

This was very convincing. Thank you for going through the effort of putting these lenses on display this way. Ordered the recommended 3. Should be fun.

@00Kevinguyen 3 года назад

Just what I needed! A review of the whole collection in one video!

@sergeyvoykin9497 3 года назад

Thank you for the review! Really love my 25mm, want to get 16 and 50 now. Good luck with the pt. 2!

@mattwolcott3266 3 года назад

Awesome, thanks for taking the time to make this!

@StephenSmart 3 года назад

Really enjoyed the coverage of the lenses and look forward to the second part, hence subscribed. The comparison zoom and frame shots were great to see. Great work. Thank you. Did not know the whole range is out! I have two of them (12 and 25). Maybe I can add a third.

@davidp158 Год назад

Great, detailed review. I particularly like the comparison section from 11:25 through 12:47. This nicely demonstrates deviations among lenses in the set, and I wish other reviewers did something similar. Finding out that you lenses don't match when editing in post can present challenges that, while fixable, may be worth considering when shooting.

@JoseSantos-uc8cl 3 года назад

Thank You So Much! Just purchased the 16mm T.2.2 after watching your video. Be well! Thank You again!

@jessekeener9442 3 года назад

I wish all lens tests were this in depth. I feel like I can confidently purchase these lenses knowing what I'm going to get. Looking forward to part II!

@jermdawgg 3 года назад

Man, this video came in clutch when I was looking for information on close focusing distances for the lenses. I remembered your video had a whole section on it and sure enough! Thanks again! Oct. 5th is coming soon!

@reckerproduction9468 3 года назад

Lovely comparisons, beautiful model, nice audio , great production quality

Thank you sir, you are a true hero with this review. I'm really love the part about the Exposure, Contrast Comparison, it really helpful when planning lighting setup with these lenses on set.

@adamballweg 3 года назад

Not sure how I haven't been suggested this channel yet, YT must be sleeping! This was such a fascinating technical review Very excited to see the practical side of it and would love to see this with the SLR Magic Micro Primes.

@ibrahimasow5038 3 года назад

I actually can't believe this channel has less than 2k subscribers. It deserves more than 100k. Really great review, straight into the point, really logical procedure, and great comparison. Kudos sir for the best lens review I've ever seen 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

@Humcrush 3 года назад

Thanks!

@SlicedProduction 2 года назад

Just stumbled upon this and I honestly must tell you that this might be the best comparison video of any kind that I have seen so far! The attention to detail in evey aspect of your categories is amazing and insanely useful. I don't think that I have seen anyone yet to match that. The one that stood out to me was the FOV comparison. I'm considering to get the 25mm MEKE at the moment. I can't wait to dig through your channel!

@Humcrush 2 года назад

So glad you found it helpful!

@samuelpatchett684 2 года назад

Absolutely amazing lens review! This review was exactly what I was looking for and delivered so much more. The side by side comparisons was perfect. I actually took screen shots of all of them to use as a reference. Subbed. Looking forward to more great content. Thank you!!!

@Humcrush 2 года назад

Thank you! So glad you found it useful.

@joecal2360 3 года назад

Kickass comparison! Your Veydra comparison video earned my sub a while back, and you've yet to disappoint!

@JaredSaroyanKruger 3 года назад

Absolutely awesome comparison of these, Joe. Thanks for putting this all together. I'm very interested to see Part II as well. Best of luck with whatever you're working on.

@Humcrush 3 года назад

Thank you for the kind words. COVID-19 really destroyed my plans for films this year. By this time, I had hoped to have released two more shots and be working on a feature. 😞

@JaredSaroyanKruger 3 года назад

I'm in the same boat. I was nearing the final stages of pre-production for the first in a series of shorts when COVID hit. I'm hoping we all get to start realizing some of our plans in the not too distant future.

@TheChrisBauer 3 года назад

Good job with the comparison and good luck with growing the channel!

@rpmcitycruiser 3 года назад

Thanks for the review. I'm looking forward to part 2.

@MrTimjohns 3 года назад

Joe. I've been waiting for this. Great stuff, sir! Wish I would have had this prior to buying my set (12,16,25,&35) but I feel great about the Meikes and am hoping to get at least one more. Sounds like it should be the 50 but those last two look great as well. Thanks so much, for putting these out!

@Upmacher 3 года назад

Never have I seen a better comparison about something. Especially a lens comparison, well done! Subbed probably for ever! And now I’m going to crush it. ✌️

Man you are the truth It's literally 3:02 A.M. In the morning and I was up racking my brain about which to lens should I buy. I all ready have the Meike 25mm and 35mm and was debating between getting the 16mm or 12mm. You just helped me a ton. Thank you fort the informative video. I will be subscribing. I will also be purchasing the 16mm and the 50mm to add to my collection. Thanks again.

Great! Finally a real good review...They are really amazing lens! I just have 25mm but I will definitely get the full set! Thank you

@mychalumicox196 3 года назад

Just did my first shoot using the Meike 50mm T/2.2 with my BMPCC4K and I have to say I like what i've seen so far. I'm an audio guy so I made sure I use a cameraman who knew what he was doing but also someone I trusted. I was on the fence trying to figure out what lens I wanted next but after watching your video I'm leaning towards the 16 & 25. I'm looking forward to park 2 and thanks again for helping out cats like myself who are out of their elements.

@agooddayout2689 3 года назад

Oh boy, that 12mm looks juicy... also, really appreciate you putting the time into using chapters :)

@libraproducciones 3 года назад

I was waiting for this since you released the first teaser, and it didn't disappointed, well done! Your previews videos actually helped me a lot when I was considering of buying my Meike lenses. So far, I'm very happy with them (I own the 12 and the 25) and I will probably invest on the 50/65.. I'll wait for the second part of your review (which looks very promising) to have more info for the decision ;) Keep doing the great work man, you're chanel will grow fast if you keep uploading this top quality content

@InuManiac906 3 года назад

Thank you so much for all the detailed info. I'm coming from Rokinon and looking to invest in Meike lenses. This was very helpful for me and my decision.

@devinhill9514 3 года назад

I’ve been wanting a good review of the Meike lenses. I’ve had them in my Amazon cart for probably half a year now haha. Would love a shot at winning a lens! Thank you for this!

@dude1diligence 3 года назад

Lots of work went in this. Appreciate. Might give the 25mm a chance again after my bad copy. Other than the faulty focus ring, I share the same CA issue as your copy. Only at f5.6 was the CA mostly gone.

@josephasghar 2 года назад

Great review. I’m sold. Cheers buddy.

@Pierorocks 3 года назад

Wow, great comparison! Wish we had this for all cine lens line-ups!

23:42 The most valuable piece of information I’ve ever heard in any review on RU-vid. Thank you.

@Humcrush 3 года назад

Sadly, actual advice about actual filmmaking does not attract viewers on RU-vid. Review something while rambling on about yourself, though, that's gold! 😉

@damiensantillan6125 3 года назад

This was definitive. I liked and subbed. Keep it going. Much appreciated.

@sydvaughn.c4d 3 года назад

Great video! This is really helping me decide on what to get!

@pavloqesari 3 года назад

Classy, thorough and insightful. The best comparison not only between lenses but also focal lengths, the FOV and Background compression sections helped a lot! Maybe release that part as a standalone?

@Humcrush 3 года назад

Thanks. That's a good idea.

@davidvalens3337 3 года назад

this video is fantastic for the comparison for the meike cinema glass. I would love to see more footage with the bmpcc4k and the 16 and 25mm lenses.
