Very cool but I bet he can’t recreate Ana de Armas in my living room. It’s his next challenge.

It is - provided you hold the camera reasonably still, otherwise you get jerks if you move it too fast. It's the mode I normally use for wildlife video with that lens. The extra crop that digital stabilization adds is actually useful in that situation too.

SK Grimes is one of the most famous lens technicians, though sadly is priced to match - located in Rhode Island. https://skgrimes.com/product/repair-services/

finding good service people is getting harder and harder i reckon, if all else fails maybe one of those lens rehousing services could help. If their pulling a lens apart and machining parts, cleaning and lubing a lens should be a piece of cake, but maybe not cheap... would depend on how you value the lens as to whether it is worthwhile or not. Btw i like what you doing with the black and white images care to share a little of your processing / workflow?

Everyone is talking about how they used the Ronin 4D on the "Adolescence" and how well it did. I bet they only used it in like 4 shots though.

Sorry for the repost but after second thought, I realized that this wasn't shot with the Super Takumar 50mm 1.4, it was actually shot with the Nikon Nikkor 28mm f/2 N.C. non-ai lens. I was using the Tak a lot last spring/summer, so I just assumed that was it, but the close up bothered me so I went back to my notes. Anyway, I didn't want to misrepresent the lens...

Biggest difference for me between the S5 and S1 is that the EVF on the S1 is excellent and on the S5 it's inadequate. If you use the EVF a lot then go for a S1.
