    I think the claim for "vintage" is the minor barrel distortion at the wider focal length and chromatic abberation + slightly soft when stopped down.. but I'm completely with you, they're modern enough for sure!
    Nice studio setup btw!

    Such a rock solid set 🤌🏻 I’ve got the 35 for my Komodo too, and will be looking to get the 21 and 90 too. It’s funny as my background in graphic design too and it definitely subconsciously impacting my decision too 😅 Interesting to see it stacked against the sigma too! I actually prefer the slightly less sharp look of them and into the touch of chromatic aberration too surprisingly 😅 gives it character I feel. Love the vids man, keep ‘em comin! 👊🏻

    • @JoshuaFortuna

      I think between those two it comes down to picking between versatility (Pictor) or a stop of light at T/2.1 (Vespid).

    • @JoshuaFortuna
      @JoshuaFortuna  Рік тому +1

      Hahah, honestly the “look” between the lenses is pretty dang close (I slightly preferred the DZO), so coming down to the physical design was next on the list. Check out Spenser Sakurai’s comparison it’s apples and apples…so to speak.

    Hey Joshua. Great video! This is unrelated, but how do you get your film grain to stay in your videos? I find that UA-cam typically denoises all the grain that I add in post.

    Looks beautiful I particularly like the against light source renditions compared to meike lineup but it's really a shame that all dzo prime skyrocket 300€ in the last week (22/07/2022) because now instead of choosing between both for look, economies come into equation...

    Quick question, do you know what kind of Sigma Cine Lenses you were using in this video?
    Was it the “FF High Speed Cine Primes” or the “FF Classic Cine Primes”? 😊.

    Huge fan of the interchangeable mount idea.
    Torn of the IQ though.
    In some images I had the imagination you did have different focus points - which made it look like the sigmas has less contrast while the focus was only on the back. (50mm I think?

    Hi!
    Are you using a tilta mirage mattebox? I'm afraid that this lens may vignette on FF.
    Do you have any experience on this topic?

    • @JoshuaFortuna
      @JoshuaFortuna  Рік тому +1

      I haven't used that matte box in particular, but if you're using it as a 4x5" filter, then you should be fine. Even the round 95mm filter shouldn't vignette. The DZOs have a front diameter of 77m inner thread, so it seems like you'd have a decent amount of room. MAYBE some vignetting on the 16mm?
      Again, this is an educated guess! I hope this helps!

    I already own a pair of DZOFILM Pictor Zooms and I like them quite a lot, so the Vespid Primes are probably going to be my next investment in the lens category. Thanks for comparing them to the Sigmas, although I feel it would have been a fairer comparison at T4 since the Vespids only open up to T2.1 and the Sigmas go to T1.5, but that's nitpicking I guess.

    • @JoshuaFortuna
      @JoshuaFortuna  2 роки тому +1

      I could see that T/4 would have been more fair to the lenses, but it would be less realistic to the viewer. 4 out 5 times these lenses will be shot wide open, so I wanted to show them at that state…while obviously keeping it even at T/2.1.
