Thumbs up for Devin responding to nearly every single comment. Even the know it all trolls who, despite having no experience and no film business, feel like they should tell him how to run his unbelievably successful business. Rock on Devin! Much success to you! We've all been blessed by your talent and trend setting "silly" you tube videos :)
Awww shucks! Even though the UA-cam community is the most vicious we still love being apart of it. The negative comments destroy me sadly :/ Just one comment can totally take over my day. But these comments are the ones that remind me why I do what we do, because of the incredible people that do believe in us. I don't have it all figured out. I'm trying my best to learn and grow as fast as I can, and knowing I have people supporting us in this process makes it all worth it. Thank you my friend for watching our backs, especially on the "silly" youtube videos ;)
Ignore the haters Devin, you are living proof that they are wrong...I find your success and your work inspiring as do millions of other people. Look at what you've accomplished in your career thus far and the skills and experience you've gained. There are only bigger and better things from here. Thank you for sharing the ride with us.
The people who leave negative comments are just lazy bums who have to much time on their hands. But people who leave positive, but constructive comments, are people that know how much you put into these videos and how much you've put into your company, and want to help you grow!
devingraham the haters are just insecure, no worries. I love your work and appreciate the info you share. Congratulations on this purchase, you must be super excited to get using them. We cant wait to see what you create with them :-)
Gave a great day!
fatbaldandhappy well said!
Devin, it would be awesome to see what projects you use these on and what you use your new Sigma lenses on. Maybe you could leave it in the comment section if you don’t put it in the actual content/video.
I love learning from you. Thanks for sharing your natural talents and well earned/learned and researched information with all of us. ✌️
Others : Let us buy a Supercar around $200,000
Devin : Imma buy hell lot of cine lens.
Love your dedication man, keep making videos 😊😊😊
I'd buy a house for that much...
Lenses are a great investment. You can charge for them, and they are stable in price for reselling. If you have a lot of project, lenses can pay off pretty quickly...
Well he'd probably make more money out of those lens compare to a super car that would maybe be featured in his video once or spend it's eternity in his garage!
@@incubus_the_man Yea, in the middle of fucking nowhere... I live in Studio City no such thing as a house even costing 600k here.
I remember when you were filming your Assassins Creed parkour vids with the Canon 5D Mark II and now here you are about to start filming with $200,000 cinema lenses!! You have come so far and I am so glad I have been a part of your journey for the past 6 years :)
I litteraly couldn't take this smile off my face seeing you unbox all these beautiful lenses! The revenant has to be one of my favorite movies of all time, from the writing to production, especially the production! The scenes in that movie are so sharp and beautiful, it's crazy what kind of image these lenses produce! I cannot wait to see more of your work with these holy grails!!!
Reasons why this is smart:
1) These lenses are very expensive. If you shoot a lot, it's better to just buy them.
2) Cinema lenses usually dont lose value over time like cameras and other stuff. Some get ever more expensive as they age (like Lomo). They will probably own these lenses for decades.
3) He's a gearhead. Every filmmaker is. Some people make money by doing what they dont like to spend it on stuff they want to do (expensive cars or what not). Filmmakers spend money on gear because they want to.
Well said, you nailed it :)
I'd be renting these out tbh
Dude, you have been blessed beyond measure! So happy to see your work doing so well! Keep up the excellent work.
When i saw this video for the first time my eyes was melted! You're amazing, I follow you for almost 4 but i seen ALL of your videos and I love them all.
Can't wait to see the shoot caught whit this awesome lenses!
CONGRATS!!!! Spending a quarter mil. on lenses is awesome! Thank you, Devin, for not wasting money like on other YT channels, and spending it so you can produce even better work!! Btw, do you have a BTS video for your newest Ireland video?
I wish he releases it. They always have a bts fotog.
Yes, will be coming out with a bts next week :) When we release bts vids on the same day as main videos now, they don't get any views anymore :/ So will be trying to release them the following week and see how that does :)
We will be next week :)
Oh, thanks so much!!!
Devin man, thanks for the video. To be honest, you're the first UA-camr that I actually started following and watching religiously. Your positive attitude is infectious and your films are top notch! Thanks again, and keep doing what you're doing!
Congratulations Devin and the rest of the team. This is a huge move for you guys. But it's lovely to see how much you guys have grown and developed over the past how many years haha. Best of luck with it and can't wait to see what you guys pump out with this new narrative style that your going for.
These are the comments that keep me going. Thank you so much my friend for the kind words, and the continued support!
You are very welcome. I always say, "give credit where credit is due" and you guys deserves alot of credit for all the brilliant content that you have provides us with over the many years here on UA-cam. So here's to many more :D
Congratulations!! I'm so proud of you and your team for reaching this stage!! I'm excited to see what y'all produce
Thank you for sticking with us all. It's been super exciting, and it's a lot of brand new unknown territory that scares me to death but also allows me the most room to grow :) Stay tune, excited to share the journey with you.
There’re some amazing lenses there! Having one of these in the hand has to be a magical experience, soooo much quality there. I hope to see you soon using them in a movie made by you Devin!
Awesome call on the 21mm and 29mm, the 40mm is another very common cinema medium shot lens :) That's my favorite for s35mm
Awesome unboxing Devin! You are just getting started and I can't wait to see where you end up and the big picture stuff you end up getting into. Keep believing.
There are UA-camrs buying expensive things that do not further their career at all, and then there's the few (like you guys) who are investing in their business, looking years ahead and seeing all the amazing opportunities (even beyond UA-cam) that come from such investments, and yet there are so many who do not understand and are flaming you guys. UA-cam is a business (a business based around community and video), and you have to make smart business decisions to stay afloat in it and move ahead. Those lenses are awesome, Devin! Great job guys!
Keep it going man, we're all waiting to see how much you progress. Epic work.
will these fit my iphone with a mount?
:D
They actually can, a lot of "shot on this or that mobile phone" commericals were shots on rigs with lenses like these
i suppose so.
Maybe :) We've actually hooked a cinema lens to a Samsung Galaxy 8 before with no issues :)
yeah, with custom additional equipment, but still quite impressive
I've been following you for quite a while, have seen how hard you worked to reach this level proud of you man and all those who are saying they can take the same shot with a lens costing 50 cents, well haters gonna hate just move forward and keep on making inspirational content
Consider it done, and thank you for watching our backs :)
Everyone is a critic... keep doing you Devin, love your work! Your "Goofy" videos have got you this far!
Your the best my friend, thank you for believing in our team and what we're doing, can't wait to show you what we have in store.
I agree. Devin is doing it big. He definitely makes the “dream” seem more tangible. His videos and personality just give off positive feel good vibes. Keep doing you Devin!
And I can't even afford the sigma 18-35😂😂
Keep it up devin
That's such a good all round lens, i'm saving up for that too!
Living the dream, congratulations! Looking forward to the day when I have a project that would let me shoot those lenses.
dude i pulled out my unused glidecam ima give it 1 more shot this weekend.....i fuxs with u bro...u very humble...keep up the good vibes
Thanks for so many great videos!
You are Awesome!
Those look amazing. I wish you and your company the best, looks like a great investment.
Daaaaaaaaaamn Devin! Very cool. Also the boxes on the shelf in the background are stressing me out.
Haha, me to :)
Cant wait to see the quality pulled out of these lenses! your vids are the best cinematography ive ever seen on youtube! :) Any upcoming plans for the new lenses?
YES, A a ton of new plans for the lenses. Were about to launch something brand new that were super excited to share with you :)
devingraham sweet! Can’t wait
@devingraham Correct me if I'm wrong. Isn't the Revenant shot on the Alexa 65? The Summilux - C are only Super35. BTW i have shot on these lenses on an Alexa Mini for a TV car ad. Very light and super sharp!
Only some parts of The Revenant were shot on Alexa 65. Most of the film was shot on the Alexa XT and the Alexa M using master primes and summilux-c's. Chivo likes to have the lightest camera possible for handheld, so he used a very stripped down alexa m with a 16mm summilux and the "head" of the camera linked by cable to the camera "body" in a backpack worn by a grip.
Cool man thanks! :D
How do you nail your focus on a glidecam ? Manual / Auto?
We used these as the main lenses for Netflix's Lost in Space with blue streak filters to make them look like anamorphics. Also on the Revenant using the Alexa 65 the widest lens was a 28mm rehoused Hasselblad which is similar to a 17mm FF lens while the widest s35 lens was a 12mm Master Prime to be used with the XT and M.
Oooh how exciting! Sure these will be a great investment + looking forward to seeing some of the new projects with them too :D
Wow!!! These lenses are going to be such a game changer for Teamsupertramp! Can’t wait to see the results of your first video with these!🙂
Stay tune my friend, and thanks for sticking with us :)
devingraham I really hope our filming lives allow us to cross paths in the near future! #allfortheshot
When you say Spielberg shot on 21mm does it mean that I have to get like 32mm on full frame to get the same look considering 1.5 crop factor coz he used s35 format?
you just did an unboxing on the sigma cine lenses, can you explain why you bought these as well? Thanks
This is some crazy end game gear! Congrats!
So excited to see you guys are starting to change up your style and investing in your business.
If you are ever shooting in Arizona and need extra help I’d love to tag along!
Hey devin! i just want you to know that you inspired me a lot in every video you posted in this channel. You are the real meaning of film making for me. btw I'm 15 years old event photographer and editor and i learned a lot from you ;)
SOOOO STOKED TO HEAR! Love hearing people so young get into film making, you'll have a massive advantage the harder you push yourself and work towards it :)
Thanks devin! you are such a great inspiration for us as a young film maker. Also greetings here from the Philippines.
Congrats Devin !!!
Awesome videos Devin, keep doing your great work! Do you have any thoughts on a good camera (and maybe lens) for shooting video, in the price range between 1000-2000 usd?
Wow. Can't wait to see some footage
Hey Dev, i remembered you showing your short film years ago, from College. Well, that made me gain my insights of filmmaking better. After attending school, I fell short of watching you because of the style that you change, which is all in your preference and style as a director. But I see that you are going back to your short films and hopefully you do. I finished school also and started to do all my short films as well and Cannot wait to see what you have for us viewers. Keep up it man. Hopefully I come across you when your in LA or in SF. Good luck to the future you have as every filmmaker is going after their dreams as I am going for my short films and feature films of scripts.
Thank you my friend, and yes, went from narrative films to more "viral/extreme" sport videos, which I love as well. The viral videos helped build a brand/voice, and now I'm going back to my roots :) Slowly but surely :)
devingraham Glad you found your own path. Every great filmmaker has their road and ladders to go through as what you are doing with yours. Really do not like the comment section but criticism and hate speech is what helps improve anyone’s work.
I think it’s time you move over to Arri. :) great content man! Saw my buddies from Droneworks work with you on a project!! Always fun. Let me know if I can show you a project that we have in the works! Great buy!!!!
Hi Devin. Amazing lenses. You don't mind the limitation of shooting at 5K on your Monstro sensor?
Devin I am using gh5. which lenses you will prefer for this camera please??
When the box fell in the intro I shat myself
I was working with them once, the quality is just mindblowing!
We've been super impressed so far :) The projects we filmed with there baby brother, the summicron's, the quality was amazing, just a bummer youtube compression kills a lot of the quality.
Really wanna see what you'll be doing with these lenses.
In about a years time can you do a video to show how you maintain and clean these lenses? I would assume because these are not weather sealed that they would require a different level of maintenance?
Hello Devin, this is Luis from Maryland!!! I love your videos!!
Fulltime filmmaker member, Parker Walbeck!! 😊
If you can adapt it on Sony E-mount, can you use it as a regular photographic lens? If yes, those lenses are too overkill for photography.
I’m laughing my butt off of the haters who’re trying to justify why you should not have purchased these lenses. Just so you know Team Supertramp doesn’t do only UA-cam videos. Most of the stuff that gets put on UA-cam are either for fun or just their creative outputs. Of course their not gonna post every single thing they do with other clients. I’d love to be able to be a part of a production crew like yours Devin. But a kid can only dream.
Lovely lenses you got there!
Can i use these lenses for Red Vista Vision sensor (MONSTRO)?
Enjoy them!
Im so keen to see the output!
I had a hard time buying my 70-200 2.8 Canon for $3,000. Congrats on officially being the craziest and most creative director/cinematographer I know! Love your work Devin.
Thank you my friend :) And it all starts somewhere. I remember 8 years ago when I started not even owning a camera. And it's been a nonstop process of working for it everyday, dealing with constant rejection, but always believing it was possible. The 70-200mm lens is one of my favorites, and super stoked for you :)
do u guys use them for apsc size sensors tooo!!
Devin, thank you for the video! Very inspiring and educational! When you say that famous directors used 21mm lens, does that mean that it was actually around 35mm since there's a crop factor in super 35mm film/sensor cameras?
Wow Devin that thing looks incredible! It’s scary to think your going to be running around with that on a Steady Cam! Please post more videos with it soon! 👌💯
Were actually working on a ton of narrative stuff right now, super excited to show you what we have in store :)
Damn, well done man, the Leica's have an incredible look and feel, honestly congrats. Curious on the Leica Thalia aperture / t-stop comparison. Considering the Summilux are T1.4, the equivalent look on a full frame sensor would be about a T2.0 with full frame coverage. It's true that the summilux are little brighter, but when it comes to the depth of field look, they would only differ slightly. That being said, if you are shooting mostly S35 sensor size, there is less need to have full frame coverage and the added weight when you are using less glass for sure. Can't wait to see how they look!
Looking forward to what you are going to create with these beauties!
Stay tune, thanks for believing in us :)
Congrats Devin! You guys are really investing for your new cinematic style! I'm really looking forward to the next videos! I got one question though why did you get the sigma lenses that you unboxed recently if you bought these anyway??
Greetings from Germany, over and out!
Thank you so much for the kind words :) It really makes my day :) I just responded to this question in another comment. But I'll go more in depth again here. Maybe I'll even do a video on it. Sigma's are meant for a full frame camera. Leica Summilux are meant for a Super 35mm camera. They both have a different "look" and quality to them that is different. Will be going more in depth on this in other videos :) The Sigma's will be used for more of the extreme videos due to how much cheaper they are, while the Leica's will be used on the more narrative type videos. And it allows when our team splits up into two groups, to both have lenses to pull off the project.
Epic unboxing and review can’t believe the lenses cost that mush wow
Why not Zeiss Master Prime?
When I've rented master prime lenses in the past, I actually thought they looked "to sharp" and to "video-e". Zeiss's were a contender in this as well, but after personally shooting with Leica lenses, those are the ones I fell in love with.
devingraham I respect your decision, but I don't see how they seem too video-ey for you (although I see where you come from in regards to their sharpness). Blade Runner 2049 was shot on Zeiss Master Primes (without filters, as Roger Deakins does not use filters) and it was one of the most cinematic experiences of the decade.
Most of the movies are shot on Zeiss Master Primes. Zeiss is the best in making lenses with literally no distortion. The Zeiss Master Prime lenses even the 12mm have no distortion. The movie Gravity was shot on wide angle Zeiss Master Primes and you can see there is literally no distortion. I just love that.
'video-e' lol...maybe that's the RED ? They Sure looked good in Roger Deakins last few films ^__^ still gotta go with your own vision... ps aren't summilux-C designed for S35 ? Won't Vistavision Sensor cause vignette on your 16mm ? or are you only shooting S35 with them?
actually, no lenses are better than other lenses...there are just the right lenses for the project :)
Do they have an additional crop factor or do they have the focal lenght that is caputered on the lenses?
They are meant for Super 35mm cameras/sensors.
what ever happened to that gopro-e with switchable lenz you got awhile back?
All these uneducated comments make me sick. He OWNS A PRODUCTION COMPANY!! chill, he's investing in that. It isn't a new concept. Goodness. You go Devin!
Haha, thank you my friend for watching our backs :) And yeah, youtube comments is a scary place, haha, for everyone. And yes, it's all about the bigger picture.
Devin, what are your thoughts on Blackmagic Cinema Cameras?
Just wanted to see if you remember meeting myself at Utah airport while you were sick as a dog.
Also, Huge props, can’t wait to see what the future holds
I do remember, how could I forget?? :)
Which camera/s are you planing to use these lenses on Devin?
Devin, first, thanks for sharing. Fantastic info and love your attitude of straight to the point and honest sharing. Having said that and knowing you're coming from a similar place as most current Indies, what would you say, for an indie, is the advantage of the Leicas vs the other manufacturers, and what an indie might gain by either going canon, sigma, toking, Leica or Zeiss? You talked about contrast and variations in sharpness throughout the frame, but would like for you to share your personal feeling toward the lenses brands and characteristics. I understand there's probably some sponsorship or "don't want to upset a manufacturer" approach, but would like to hear from you what do you think of the lenses you've used so far, different attributes not much on a resolution chart sort of way, but as an indie who wants to achieve the best images he can and his signature look.
Great info bro.
These are my dream lenses 😍 on how many degrees is the focus range spreaded?
GOALS!
Will you guys be using these lenses for all your future projects or just for the higher production ones?
On the higher productions/narrative ones. I just sent this response to someone, so hopefully this helps: Sigma's are meant for a full frame camera. Leica Summilux are meant for a Super 35mm camera. They both have a different "look" and quality to them that is different. Will be going more in depth on this in other videos :) The Sigma's will be used for more of the extreme videos due to how much cheaper they are, while the Leica's will be used on the more narrative type videos. And it allows when our team splits up into two groups, to both have lenses to pull off the project.
How do you use a glidecam and focus at the same time?
Tips, links, etc.?
Very carefully :) Will have videos coming out on it very soon. But a follow focus for sure. When we use the bigger setups we are using a Ronin 2. Just the glidecam alone, I can't carry the new rig built out. If it's just a wide lens I can handle it.
Are you planning to use them with the gorgeous Canon EOS R?
What you gooing to do with the Sigma Devin? Can you use these on the 1DX2 with adaptors?
So much gear p0rn though ;)
Dude your awesome. Very inspirational.
I must be living on a different planet...obviously I don't know the process involved to produce these lenses that cost more than a family car....sure must be nice to have money to buy the best, so go for it Devin ....and have fun doing it. I still love the results that you produce....Cheers
T3,6 for example. Whats up with the T. Whats the different with F-stop
Basically T stops are a more precise measurement :)
petapixel.com/2016/12/30/f-stops-vs-t-stops-difference-explained-plain-english/
Any thoughts on the Red Pro Zooms?
Seriously some beautiful glass.
I thought the revenant was shot on Alexa 65? Was the summilux 16mm a B-camera lens or something?
According to the DP of the film, Emmanuel Lubezki, he said this, "The production shot with Master Primes, mainly 12, 14 and 18mm, and also with the Leica Summilux 14, 16 and 18mms, as they are much lighter for handheld."
This, is one hell of a great business move. Personally my dream lenses are the Fujinon MK lenses (18-55 and 55-135 zooms), because I do cinematography and documentary/broadcast work. Those are the lenses Philip Bloom uses... nuff said! Parfocal, no breathing, T 2.9 throughout the range, seamless iris, 200 degrees focus throw (so you can pull by hand for broadcast) AND finally... macro mode! :O Like yeah they're expensive for me (5K-8K), but hell, those can replace most of my actual lenses - if not all my still lenses. Lenses are a great investment.
I believe the 55-135 you're referring to is actually a 50-135. They are nice lenses I purchased them recently for our Jailbirds Show.
Waiting to see the differences between all these lenses and also comparing with other expensive lenses!
Now that was interesting! Can you by chance compare the performance of the Summilux 50mm to Sony Zeiss Planar 50mm f/1.4 E-Mount lens? Really interested to know how far the Sony stands.
I sure hope you took the type of film stock into consideration when looking at what lenses were used for the movies you researched. A 21mm on 65mm film would look very different than a 21mm on 16mm film.
Awesome lenses one of my favourites
They are amazing, excited to show you what we have in store with them :)
Great video devin. How large of a sensor can these beauties cover?
They are meant for a super 35 camera. When we put them on the Red S35 Helium sensor, it's perfect. When we put the wider lenses on a Vista Vision sensor, you see inside the camera/lens. HOWEVER, the tighter lenses, I believe 40mm and tighter you don't see inside the camera at all.
devingraham thanks for the answer devin :)
bought a Leica lens for my iPhone.
Still looking for a suitable adapter though...
Are these lens for full frame ?
Or they have a crop factor.
Full Frame
i thought he said they were 35mm? i dont know anything about cameras but he was saying how the sigma lenses were full frame but these he was getting were 35mm or something
not full frame, it's around the same size as an apsc sensor.
Where did you get your shirt?!?!
Disneyland, California Adventure at the Oswald store near the front left of the entrance :)
I got some Leica glass for my GH5 the other day and its amazing, however it didn't come with a 6-digit price tag!
Idk if this question will get answered, but how much do you think a 15-20 min short film with a decently sized budget will cost to make?
That can't be answered because it depends on the script. But if you were take your average made for TV movie you're looking at million dollar budget. If you consider just the time as the only information there is to work with, the I would say 275,000 to $425,000
Are you gonna be keeping your Sigma Glass
Just love this channel. Pretty and cool kids with a lot of money, testing out expensive gear. Moste people rent lenses like this, you just buy them. Cool! Now you can make those 50 million dollars looking movies :)
haha. We did rent lenses like this. But at the rate we film at, we could have bought them with what we were spending out. Now we own them, can film with them whenever we want, and we can make the money back by renting :) A win win :)
Do you ever plan to venture into anamorphic or do they just not make sense for what you are doing? I love using my Lomo front element but it is very tedious to use.
I would love to film something with anamorphic lenses. Love the videos I've seen with them. I would say for sure. But didn't make sense to buy anamorphic lenses over the Leica ones due to what our long term goals are, the Leicas made a lot more sense for what we would be using and renting out.
Devin what's the reason for spending such a ton? Could you explain if u wish.
What's with the audio? Do you use a compressor?
what happened with the sigma lenses you unboxed a couple months earlier?
Do you find that you spend a higher percentage of your budget on camera equipment compared to big budget films?
Not sure I fully understand the question?
How do you feel about a 12 mm?
