Was in the middle of watching your green screen video and this showed up.
Why not try a Rokinon?
I like your honesty bro “I am not keeping this lens” haha
grab a variable ND filter for your Sony native glass and you get both autofocus and that cinematic motion blur.
second?
What features do you need on this lens in order to keep it?
Try out the Loxias if you want that cine-lens feel
idk what first lens I should buy for my new Panasonic g7. I’m thinkin a prime 1.8 cuz I wanna not be limited by low light scenarios and have a lens with a nice wide aperture. Im also interested in high zoom lenses too. idk mannn
WHAT THE HECK. IT’S JOHN HILL AND SARAH DIETSCHY!
Even though this 50mm lens was quite 5/10 for you 😛 what focal length would you prefer/recommend for vlogs?
interesting editing style, very enjoyable to watch, good flow
LOVE the music for this cinematic lens video, well done! Thanks for reviewing!
Great to the point review! 5/10 would buy :`D
Hi Kraig what is this nice ND filter you use in this video? I don’t find it in one of your kit. Maybe do you have an amazon link? Thanks!!
I like the look. If you can find another that gives a similar look that you like would be great.
two rapid uploads? nice one kraig
(also, making a review before you actually let a thing go. nice one) lol
Great video. I think when it comes to the sharpness and other imperfections of the lens it boils down to personality. For certain narratives it would work perfectly. But your personality is more clean and straight forward, hence your dislike of the imperfections but someone who would need to show some sort of isolation would find the shallow dof and vignette very appealing. But damn do you still put that lens to good use in your Panama video
Have the same problem with old canon 50mm f1.8
Do you know any good lenses with f1.8, which are not sigma and are not 500$?
Do you need it pretty bright for the face detection to work? My C300 Mark II face detection is not reliable enough to use on paid work.
Are you sure if vignet does not come from the variable ND filter ?
wow that shot at 1:12 !!!
first?
Rokinon lenses are pretty good and cheap(ish) cine lenses too in my experience
You should make ASMR videos your voice is soothing and puts me to sleep.
WTF I NEED TO WATCH UR PANAMA FILM RIGHT NOW OMG
Great and honest review. Would you get the same vignette with most lenses that are f/1.1? And how did that change as you increase the aperture to like 1.8 where you can still get a nice depth of field? The manual focus thing is a killer tho
Great video! You help so many small filmmaking channels like me!
You’ve gotta be the only person I’ve talked to that enjoys using the native Sony lenses with focus by wire for AF and MF work. Perhaps it’s just something people need to take more time to master and most just won’t take the time. Wonder if Sony is actively working to make it less laggy. I hear the GM lenses do a lot better so maybe it’s just the more expensive lenses:P
Cool review tho, nice to see someone really give themselves over to the system and use everything Sony puts out:)
Nice, honest review Kraig. I have a 50mm f1.8 I use on my Canon 70D occasionally when I need a little faster lens or some shallow depth of field. For $125, it was a no brainer. I’d like to create some more “cinematic” videos for my channel. Your tips and techniques are very helpful. Keep ’em coming.
Loved this review. Super clean and simply
I was really happy to see you make this. I’ve been wanting to see how these lenses work realistically, so it’s great to observe a candid review of the lens.
Isn’t it an idea to just put a variable ND filter on your sony lens?
Thank you for sharing… this is BIG!
Hey Kraig if I am buying the a7s which starter lens do you recommend?
