    I appreciate this video as someone who has a Fuji XT3, But also travel with a family of 5 sometimes I can't justify carrying the Fuji, 2 lenses & a Drone. I have been using anamorphic on my I phone 12 Pro max and even though as you stated sometimes you don't get that flare, I'm fine with it because for some reason I find Using Filmic Pro using the 10 Bit you get a much superior video than not...for essentially a phone in your pocket and a lens that screws on.

    The ports being open with this on is huge for me.I bought the Smallrig and loved it, until I bought a Zoom IQ7 external mic that plugs into the lightening port. The Smallrig cage doesn’t allow the mic to plug in, but this cage having the ports more open, I can plug in my mic.

    What are your thoughts on anamorphic lenses for the iPhone 14 pro? I’ve read a lot of feedback talking about vignetting and other issues now that the iPhone sensors have increased - do you have any recommendations on which lenses don’t have these issues? I was set on the moment anamorphic until I heard all the backlash they’ve been receiving recently.

    Nice! About to try an anamorphic setup on the Mavic 3. Curious, could you use a gyro logging app and Gyroflow to stabilize?

    • @initialfocus
      @initialfocus  Рік тому

      oooo nice! I bet that would be fine. The issue with IBIS is the phones sensor and lens is moving not in unison with the exterior lens plus since its squeezed it all just creates a mess. but any time ive taken anamorphic mobile footage and stabilized in a post production software its acted like any other footage. no insane wiggle issues.

      WAY less hassle shooting video, transferring video files, syncing with remotes, etc.

      It kind of looks like it, but if you really compare the image: you will see that the verticals are shorter, and you’re not gaining the extra width that you would with the lens on.

    chanced upon a video shot by someone on youtube, without any lenses and still be able to get the cinematic look,. so why use anamorphic lens or buy such a case/rig spending 100's of $$ when you are able to do it without all this..

    • @umbertoaguiar
      @umbertoaguiar Рік тому +1

      No, you are not able "to do it without all this." Unless you are doing a silent movie and manage by magic to set a proper ISO and shutter to create a cinematic look without the use of a ND filter. Otherwise you do need a cage where you can attach a ND filter and an external microphone. You will also need a light on the top of a cage if you are shooting indoors. Even if you use Freewell's case and filter you will still need a cage or at least a handle attached to an iPhone holder where you can attach a mic on the top.
      I am sure everybody who read your comment will be curious about the video you mentioned. Could you please put the link in a reply?
