first video of your I've looked at. Immediately subscribed and bookmarked. This is a nice walk-thru tutorial for color grading. Something I've been wanted to improve! Thanks for the excellent video!
Between the two 85mm 1.4 and 135mm 1.8, I chose the 105mm 1.4. You manage in a smaller space compared to the 135 and compared to the 85mm 1.4 you have more bokeh. However, I seem to have stuck with the idea of 85 1.4. 85 is miraculous, bright, very good bokeh and you can use it almost anywhere.
This is a really great review, thanks! It's really nice to see you using the lens in the field and explaining how you actually use it and viewing the files. Your photos are also amazing by the way! I'm so bored of lens reviews of brick walls going on about longitudinal chromatic aberration, flaring and sunstars!
I tried On1 years ago but I wasn't able to import lightroom presets I created. Is it able to import the newer .xmp presets? This is really what kept me from switching, and with all the crazy copyright stuff Adobe is shoving down our throats I am looking for a capable alternative where I do not have to start from scratch with.
Hi, We made a comparison of 3 wireless microphones which includes the Godox too. In a nutshell: it's a great mike just don't use the noise cancel feature as it sometimes "cancels" human voice too. Also it lacks the internal recording feature or the safety channel, but the charging case is awesome and the built in magnetic feature is also good. Having a screen on the transmitter is a really great feature and the pricing here in the UK is just right.
@@holdmylenscap7241 What were the other two wireless mics? I use fully wireless Sony ECM-W2BT bluetooth mic, and it's fantastic. It has a 200 metre range, in full stereo, and it has a 9 hour battery life (USB rechargeable) which is two hours longer than the RODE Wireless Go. There is a separate mic on the receiver which can be switched on on off and when switched on it mixes the audio from near the camera with the audio from the transmitter, great for "environmental audio" video footage whilst have a clear talk over from a distant presenter. The transmitter also has a mic in socket so you can plug a Lavalier mic into it, and Sony make a unique optional stereo Lavalier mic specifically for it (The ECM-LV1). The ECM-W2BT is only around £160 too, which is much cheaper than the competition, despite offering better audio quality.
Hej nice :) Love your tests :) You have A7R so its good with resolution. I just wonder if someday you could do a test 135 1.8 vs 85 1.4 but 85 in apsc mode. Maybe it's cheaper to buy apsc body or just use apsc crop mode istead going 135mm 1.8 solution? I just wonder how big difference is in real world shooting.
Hi, It won't be the same as the 135mm. The biggest difference would be that your depth of field would be less shallow (f2.7 equivalent) which is one of the key strengths of the 135mm
@@holdmylenscap7241 Once i was comparing my oldie samyang 85 1.4 on canon apsc to 135 f2 on FF canon 5d mark3. Results in terms FOV and DOF were virtualy the same On my canon (1.6crop) it was equivalent of 136, f2.24 . I think DOF will be around F2 equivalent 1.4x1.5 gives F2.1 so not so far from 1.8 on 135.
@@SzymonPytel For a given focal length, aperture, and distance to subject, a larger sensor will always give a shallower DOF than a smaller one, and the larger the sensor, the shallower the DOF. This is why tiny mobile phone sensors have a virtually infinite DOF and why it is almost impossible to blur anything in the background with one, unless a software based effect is used either built into the phone or in post. APS-C sensors have a deeper DOF than full frame sensors, and that's makes the full frame much better for portrait work but if you want the best quality portraits you really need medium format sensor, which has an even shallower DOF than full frame. Medium format lenses are often not be as sharp as full frame lenses though, so using medium format is always a compromise.
I wish all the comments about having to move back to retain the framing had specified the distance of required movement in feet or meters. And that the identically framed photos from the two different distances had been shown directly side-by-side and as large as possible for instant comparison. Most of us who shoot indoors do not have much room to move, unlike a shoot in a forest. -- moving as little as 6 feet back in many cases is impossible. I know calculations could derive the distances but actually showing it on-screen would have been far more vivid.
I think sweet spot would be 105mm, I don't like 85 1.4 background is too busy and bokeh not that milky like in 135, however 135 distance a bit scares me but if I had to choose I would pick up 135 all the time
Would've been helpful if you showed more examples of photos side by side instead of spending time talking about editing since that's not what the title of the video is about. The intro was like half of the video.
great video and comparisons, i wish they made these 2 lens for the canon rf format. Love the quick editing tutorial, really made the photos pop. can't wait for the next video! great work!
Fear not, Canon have now released their own 135mm f1.8 for RF...It's almost as sharp as the Samyang right across the frame, but it has to be stopped down to f4 to get good close up image quality at it's minimum focus distance (MFD), whereas the Samyang has perfect image quality at it's MFD even when wide open. The Samyang also stays sharp down to f16 whereas the Canon is soft due to diffraction at f16. However, like the Sony GM, the Canon also suffers from noticeable LoCA (Longitudal Chromatic Aberration), whereas the Samyang has virtually none. But it's the best your going to get for RF. Only us Sony shooters are blessed by having access to the stellar Samyang, so maybe consider swapping to Sony...

First of all I would like to take the opportunity and let you know that we are really appreciating that you took the time and effort to create such a great comment. We are taking every comment into consideration and yours is definitely one what we are appreciate a lot as it is shredding light to some concerns some of our viewers might have. Sometimes we are getting caught up in the heat of communication and you could be right about the amount of words used to get our message through might be a little bit over the necessary amount, but it is really hard to decide what part of the information we should exclude to avoid unnecessarily long stream of information by going over and above with the amount of linguistical forms of communication. But considering your very detailed and informative comment hereby we promise to you that in the future we will aim to reduce the words used in our videos to a more healthy level. Also we will take it into consideration that the same methodology will be used in our communications here in UA-cam comments, starting immediately, including this comment as well.
Very useful video. This was the one that finally convinced me that 135 was the focal length I was looking for.
Glad it was helpful!

Well those tests are really useful for people who shoot brick walls or directly into light sources all the time. :)
Awesome comparison video, I loved the editing section, do you have a video dedicated to how you edit your pictures?
Amazing work, Love it!
My favourite Samyang video I've watched today. Also like the post production stuff to.
Wow, thanks!

Can you run through how to invert the curves and paint it in? The video is a bit fast for me.
Could you explain why you switched from On1 to affinity when editing?
On1 is mostly for cataloging and "mass" editing, but when I edit I use Affinity as it has more options
What an amazing edit...
Wow, this is Heaven sent, im really eyeing these lenses.
get both! :D
I’m a beginner, learning also how to use On1… will a FW update on 135mm help On1 recognize it as the correct camera?
I don't know why On1 recognising Samyang lenses incorrectly... :'( Exposure X6 did recognise them properly
Do these lenses work good on aps c bodies???
Beautiful photo at 0:45.
Great comparison! Made me really want that 85 mm!
You should! It's a great lens

Hi... Ma'am.❤
Samyang 85mm 1.4 ii vs 135mm 1.8 which one best for Sony A6400 .
I want more Bokeh ❤
Switch to Full Frame then :)
Both are great for Bokeh, but the 135mm is slightly better, but it would be huge for your A6400.
@@holdmylenscap7241 thank you ma'am i will switch to Full frame .
pwede paturo yung gradient?😊
Great photos. Would've loved to see the comparison of both lenses wide open, as I noticed you shot the 85@1.8. Still, the 135 is bokeh-licious
Which SW is using for editing...
Affinity Photo. Affordable and powerful.

this is how, the reviews should be. other are like just a saleman talk.
Thank you! We always try to give honest and impartial opinions and focus more on the actual usage than the boring stats :)
We want to see actual SOOC pictures not super dramatic edit :) which is awesome but I don’t think should be used for a lens review
This was not focusing on the lenses but more on the focal lengths, but thanks for the comment, we will include the SOOC images too in the future!
