I love the Surui lenses. It’s super easy to add filters and things to the lens to give it “character” but, when you want it to be sharp you have that too.
Ahhh thanks Jim, really appreciate your continued support mate. I'm still on very tight budgets so gotta maximise on everything lol. I honestly can't wait to do a creative piece with this setup.
Great work Thanks so much!!! I'm evaluating the adquisition of a Siuri 35mm MFT, and your precious Art in advance, in this case, is very instructive... Thanks so much!!
Thank you Gerald, appreciate the comment man . Yeah I've fallen in love with it, so soft and beautiful...even on a harsh 8bit cam. Definitely given me more confidence to shoot something artistic with the Olympus.
Thanks so much for posting this! I’m not in love with the Sirui because the look of the highlight roll-off but this is a nice improvement and cool for a lot of different scenarios.
Thanks for commenting mate, it really helps when people leave feedback. I understand your thoughts on the sirui and it’s definitely a “bland” lens but that’s not always a bad thing….but I do like things to look a bit interesting. I only paid £375 but thinking about it, I was probably better off investing in a vintage lens set.
@@Altcine I don’t know, I mean it’s always good to try new things, anamorphic is beautiful, but it’s really a pain in the ass DIY category outside of these kinds of put together lenses that aren’t $25k-$35k+ .
I like this look. I'm probably one of a minimal few who liked Zack Snyders film style on Army of the Dead. With the softer dream look and dof. You're becoming borderline Kubrik, you'll be having custom lenses made next. 😉
Hey Paul, I liked that AOD look too. I had to go back and watch the movie again to see what all the fuss was about. I saw some video about Kubrick and extreme shallow depth of field too 😁
Wow very nice footage, and the warmth in your grading is really pleasant too. Have you tried other c-mount lenses for micro four thirds? Remember having a CCTV lens once that had quite a bit of character, Fujian 35 mm f/1.7, it was very cheap too.
Thank you Brian. Yeah I've had a couple Fujians in the past and I honestly loved them. They're quite clean but overly sharp and also have that blurry outer edge which people hate but I love. The eos-m still in this video is 35mm 1.6 c-mount and I think very similar to fujian... probably same optics. These lenses with their flaws are a nice change from the sigma and Olympus lenses.
Footage looks awesome bro! Proper anamorphic character. That adapter seems great quality too. How about the bokeh with the adapter i imagine it gets less oval shaped right? The character is INSANE.
Yo brother, thanks man...really does bring out that anamorphic look. The bokeh isn't that oval to begin with. It's weird because I see no distortion on Sirui but the the bokeh balls are definitely more oval towards the edges. All in all, I'm really happy though...I could potentially shoot some shorts with just this one lens if I use with & without the wide angle adapter.
Thank you. There isn't a model number on the unit but if you search for 'SONY 0.7x wide angle adapter ' you'll find it. There's quite a few on eBay...so here's a listing of the same one so you know what to look for www.ebay.co.uk/itm/QUALITY-SONY-0-7x-WIDE-CONVERSION-LENS-fits-52mm-FILTER-THREADS-for-DV-USE-HOOD-/293206765445?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&_trksid=p2349624.m46890.l49286&mkrid=710-127635-2958-0

Dont buy too wide adapter. I was personaly make huge mistake to purchase fisheye adapter it completly useless crap because image degrodation is way out scale. Sirui is very sharp lens for being anamorphic lens sometimes its good but most of time lack some vintage organic look that yuo assoiet with anamorphic lenses. Some old anamorphic projector atachmet as Schneider 2x are suprasingly sharp but thats okey because focusing with sharp lens and sharp anamorphic atachment its way easy and verstile than soft ones. I currently working of that kind project anamorphic with 2x adapter and trying pair with Samyang 20mm T1.9 lens if I succese Its will be almost world widest anamorphic lens currently ATLAS ORION 18mm T2.0 its widest lens on market.
@@Altcine It almost work in Pentax 645 210mm lens but almost have to close aperture to f16. Maybe in some lens combination it will be work better and it's was cheap maybe that's why image quality was terrible. And I soon I finished my anamorphic project I reales video about it but this anamorphic adapter is for 80mm taking lens so it's almost impossible get properly working for 20mm lens maybe I will be first crazy guy how trying this impossible task. Also their is one man how made affordable rear anamorphic adapter's Pooli you can find it's channel on UA-cam.
@@Altcine 20mm lens don't work maybe 25mm or 30mm because of anamorphic element's need space to work and in 20mm it's causes vignetting . Very big disappoinment and single focus solution that I try made it's not working either. So double focus it's only way to finish my project otherwise you get limited focusing range if element's are not movable. But this explains why nobody using this projector anamorphic adapter with wide angle lens.

i love the look, very unique, thanks for sharing

Hmmm need to watch again. That bench made me think about after I die will they put my name on a bench
I wonder how people get those, I always see them in London parks
Nice Work！

Great tips !!! Does the final squeeze factore change ? From 1,33 to what ?
It'll still be 1.33x
@@Altcine ok that’s what I thought but the visual improvement is very cool !!!!
Great setup! Are you already tested and compare with the 1.25x sirui adapter ?
I need the video for the eos m version did i miss the link

@@Altcine I wonder if you can add a swirl effect in post🤔
@@bryanbarajasBB it's possible I would imagine but nothing is going to do it as well as the Helios lol.

Can you help me with the math bro, it’s 100mm x.71 or x.17 is this a 17mm 24mm or 35mm equivalent? Thank you for everything
It's 0.7x
Doing the math 🤣🤣 no chance, I have no idea. It looks something like 35mm
@@Altcine 35mm is plenty wide!
Will this mount on the 75 mm and 35mm?
You'll have to use step rings but yes on the 75mm. The 35mm possibly should work but can't guarantee.
Where can I get the Sony 0.7x wide angle adapter?
Probably used from eBay or some other selling site.
