I know. Have been preaching that too. Now, the thread above is really something. Cosimo is putting different anamorphics into one new housing. Results look beautiful. Would be awesome, if people feel encouraged again to post this kinda stuff on the main forum again or if it would find more traffic some way else.

Thanx for pointing out this DP and director, later one did Whalerider. First female duo to do a zillion dollar Disney film.

Always thought, a speedbooster for X-mount to EF has been out for a long time. Guess I was wrong. Now we wanna see some L-mount speedboosters for the FP and S1 cameras, please.:)

Would love to see more cinematography with that combo: 35mm FF + Medium Format Speedbooster. It gives a much larger images circle than the Fuji GFX. Not seeing many examples other than quick tests. Good time to check out if Mattias has picked up on this again on his kewl youtube channel.

@Snowbro Love your post above! Out of likes for today. Spending too much time on the net on my free day. cheers:) boss! Thx!

@Andrew Reid 700 each, the Mamiya and the Pentax one. 105mm Pentax sounds like a legendary lens, since there is quiet a bit of legendary glass above 80mm focal length. I might surf flickr a bit now and my evening of lens nerdery is perfect. Just look at the images on Flickr and get a feel for the different lenses, Andrew. Not trying to sound patronizing, just cheering.:) It is way more than just simple math as we know.

Holy. In the subforums are gems of threads to be found. You, who posted them are awesome! Would be great, if these gems would get more recognition from us! Also, Andrew bought some super lowfi lenses putting out an image punching way above their weight, like the Soligor 35 70 2.5-3.5. Maybe some of these topics could be part of the main forum rather than disappear in the subforums. I know, old discussion. Just sayin. Now, enjoy the images. By the way, I didnt understand any of the science of Cosimos post. Anyway.:)

Awesome! Now if you could explain a bit more to the clueless:) Beautiful images. What camera did you use? Out of likes for today.

My guess, you will still like the image and codec coming from this camera:)

Thank you. I will have to hurry now.:) I am indeed sad that you have left Berlin. But you already know that. Cheers and Thanks!

Muaha, that thread title is complimenting the video way too much, Andrew!:) I wouldnt bother with this kind of content. Don´t get caught up in this. I agree with your article, how dpreview is censoring content and eoshd. But dont waste more energy on that. It is not worth a bit. Your word and truth is out. Thats perfect. Now back to EOSHD! This is what counts. I was pretty disappointed by the video after the tasty thread title!

f2.8 on speedbooster on 44x33 I would assume. More creamyness possibly due to lens construction and glass. Flickr might provide some great examples. I don´t know if there are third party lenses as well for the Pentax 645 mount. FOV of a 45mm 2.8 would be around 26mm eq. to 35mm FF, DOF eq. of 1.6. Summarized: the 45mm F2.8 on a 645 sensor gives an image like a 26mm f1.6 on 35mm FF. Maybe with tastier attributes and image though. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentax_645#Lenses Alternative would be the Mamiya focal reducer. That way you could put a 80mm 1.9 on there giving you the eq. of 0.81 x 0.71 x 80mm = 46mm, with 1.1 DOF.

Sigma Master 35 to 80? Had that one once for 5EU. But it was broke mechanically. Image was not master in my memory:) What shop, Andrew, what shop?:) I was thinking about the image circle of some of the 2x and 3x zooms and if mount would be changeable to Mamiya. That way one had a medium format zoom on the S1 with the Kipon Baveyes Focal Reducer. Imagine a 70-210 F3.5 zoom pushed by one stop of light transmission and giving fov eq. of 50 on 35mm FF!

Now, for the next five years you might wanna buy that kippon speedbooster from fuji to Pentax 645 for the ultimate medium format look, giving you approximately 60mm equivalent of sensor width and 46mm in height. Thats 645 digital medium format for the next five years!:)

Hmm, you could treat us with some 444 slog glory using your baby alexa and this beauty.:)

With that combo, you have some kind of obligation to film something, anything, right! @Andrew Reid

Tasty. Kye is right. Best way to safe money after unplanned spending.

the rest are still people, right. You care. Banning crosslinks in one direction btw.

Yeah, no chance to meet you at Mauerpark then, like I had been speculating on since your GH4 review:) Every day I have a hard time to believe my eyes. I thought the wave of gentrification was over after the early 2000 years. I had no I idea and I have no idea what´s to come. @Michi I find your comment amusing. Call it censorship, call it banning information, it´s the same. Germany largest online news put an article out on what might come next- A potus who mobilises his racist followers for civil war. Now, if we all could agree on not promoting this man on this forum, that would be nice. That guy has plenty promotion already.

Thanks for the word. Hitchhiking causes is another good one. Berlin has become a center for biggots. Once groovy underground capital of East, West- and unified Germany, not anymore so for the last five years. Playground for realestate benefitors and their influencer kids.

I must correct, ALL of my forum friends, who had voted for the current potus back then, were very polite, kind and participating in a discussion, like voters for other authorities. Anyway, none of them got banned. So no need to put this thing into context with this thread. The potus is not in need of attention right now. He knows how to promote his conduct. Would be cool to have this thread free of potus stuff.

@rawshooter, would be awesome if sigma would give it some firmware updates. It is a beautiful formfactor with a lot of cool tech underneath and a new exiting mount.

Hallo Andrew, what flavour of ipd codec was it, 8 bit? The 8bit 4K from the Lumix S1 with its slim 100mbit is very strong. None of the artefacts like the example you posted. Seems like Sigma has not implemented the Panny codec.

@Viridian What is it that you don´t like about my post? That the discussion back then about Covid was viscious? Well then I take it as a compliment. Because I assume you rather support kind behaviour.

@BTM_Pix It was a joke, my friend. I guess it was a joke of a joke then. I had troubles with moderate usuage already. Never had before until now, twice in a row now. So thank you everyone for putting some light into this.
