I preferred the Vespids for wide angle shots with their smoother/cleaner out of focus areas, makes the shot less distracting, but there's something about the FD longer focal lengths on close ups that's very organic and kind to faces.
I recently got the Vespid 21, 40 and 75 and like them very much. Lots of character, minimal focus breathing and good color matching between lenses. The 21, 40 and 75 set is a great range, and I don't miss a 35mm at all. The 40 does what I normally use a 50 for, as I like a slightly wider focal length. I may add the 28 down the road, but will probably get the Vespid 90mm macro first.
I thoroughly enjoted this lens review and how you did it, really nice. The Vespid primes looks good but in my opinion the Canin FD have something to them that I kinda enjoyed. All the lenses look good. Keep uk the good work.
Looking at a small iPhone screen I thought everything looked great :) there was a few differences with sharper between highlight with the window, but you’d have to be very concerned with your visual storytelling. I’d say the indoor scenes seemed slightly more pleasing on the FDs, for the outdoor shots no opinion. Maybe should rewatch this on a proper screen and see if there are more obvious differences then :)
The DZOs are super clean and less hazy
More contrast
But it still feels organic. Thank you for the video!!
Thanks for watching!
Rented the Vespids for a spec ad earlier this year and they are killer!
Great lenses!
@@timothy_films yes. We film movies in spain for netflix with DZos. With that price its absolut not comparable

Agreed!
DZO's are so good. I love the still comparisons you throw in at the end. Really shows the strengthes of the Vespids.

Great choice!
Thanks for the shoutout! I'm going to need those lenses back, though...
Haha ok 🥲

Perfect comparison! exactly what I was looking for :) Think I might pick up the Vespids
Glad I could help!

21 is amazing. I didn't have this length, but I definitely will.
Go for it!
Hey! Great video. where did you get de Canon FDs?
I bought them locally from the original owner and then converted them to EF mount
dzo looks great despite the vignetting, would love
for you to test out the mitakon s35 speedmasters
I’ll have to check those out
How did you get you pocket 4k images to look like that.
Lots of practice and knowing the limitations and strengths of the camera
Did you use a speed booster with the 4K?
Yes 👍
@@timothy_films thank you. Loved the look of the 28 and 50mm. Thank you for the video
@@timothy_filmsWhich Speed booster did you use?
@@OwoyemiMichael I use the Metabones XL 0.64x speed booster
shot with the pocket 4k?
Yup 👍
Great work I enjoy your videos.. one question, are the canons you are using canon ND SSC ?
@@stilgoin 2 of my FDs are SSC and 2 are SC
what is the monitor used?
Portkeys BM5WR
I wish there was a side by side
I actually like the fd more than dzo.
Color contrast to canon. But so damn close.
