  • So what are these new V-AF lenses really all about? I decide to test all three at once to get to the bottom of it.
    All pictures taken by me on Sony a7 IV and a7R III cameras.

    Maybe the front connection could be useful for an add on anamorphic lens. Perhaps it could allow the two parts to focus in tandem. One of the difficulties of a manual two lens anamorphic setup. This would also go along with them being a sort of cine style lens set, and allow you to use one anamorphic adapter for all three [later five] lenses.

    • @maximilliannewcombe1719
      @maximilliannewcombe1719 Рік тому

      The answer to your confusion just got released- a front attachment that converts them to have a geared manual focus ring with hard stops and a 95mm front, your regular focus ring then becomes an aperture ring

    Man, I really wish they had made the 35 first and based the rest around the form factor that would give the 35 no or the least possible focus breathing. The 35mm's focus breathing is a non starter. On the 24 and 75 I would have tolerated it, but they would have had less because they built around the middle lens.

    Someone needs to come up with a way to record focussing data with video a bit like how gyro data is recorded with video. If there was data constantly being recorded about the focussing on each frame then NLE could compensate for focus breathing on any lens.

    WOW i hope these lenses don't cost more than $50 each because the optical performance leaves a lot to be desired. I shoot a lot with vintage glass and the samples I'm seeing remind me a lot of vintage glass from the late 80's. So I guess if you're looking for a vintage-ish look these might be interesting. Thumbs up on the video.
