    I have the latest version (mine is Nikon mount). Only difference is how it looks. Bought it around 5 years ago brand new from eBay. I believe they were around $150 back then.

      Not specifically I just love vintage lenses, have a load of 50mm, a couple of 35mm one 85, some 135 a 200mm… so looking at a wide angle to finish the collection. Love a wide angle prime to add to the collection

      And yea the Zenitar is really wide, although it is a fish-eye essentially so there's the distortion involved

    Hi, do you remember the brand of the adapter you use? Because I'm having issues focusing to infinity, and I can't understend if the problem is the adapter or maybe the lens itself. Thanks :)

    So if used the 8 mm zenitar to the s35 sensor, would become a 12 mm fisheye?

      It’s really wide with distortion, not super fish-eye tho

  • @RiccardoLandi
    @RiccardoLandi 3 роки тому

    Really good review, thanks! I was wondering, is the grain of the example footage part of the lens' character or was it added with the Century8 LUT? 'Cause I love the lens look, but that would be a bit too much noise for my type of use.

    • @YuvalAloni
      @YuvalAloni  3 роки тому +1

      Thanks Ricardo!
      The noise is not from the lens, it's grain added in post to get a more stylized look. I can maybe share a clean REC.709 frame for you to see if you want, let me know

    they are not vintage. Zenitar MC16 are from 90s. And the point is that you can buy three (as many as you like) of them and all three will be different (some times it's very obvious difference).
