tommykristensen Posted October 31, 2013 Share Posted October 31, 2013 Is that the Isco I sold you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roccoforte Posted October 31, 2013 Author Share Posted October 31, 2013 Actually, no. This is with the Bolex. The Iscomorphot is great, by the way, here are some video stills I shot with it - http://imgur.com/a/WBA8g It's interesting, since buying the Blackmagic, I've been able to use wider lenses of course and I got a Nikon AIS 28mm which is SUPER sharp and I love it, plus it works really, really well with the Bolex. I bought the isco because I was sick of double focussing BUT since getting the Nikon, I almost don't have to double focus with it anymore because it's so good. I can actually rack focus. Somehow double focussing is not a big deal like it was before (with any other 50mm lens (Helios, Canon etc.) that I used on the Canon body). The other thing is that when I put the isco on the Nikon 28mm, it doesn't work exactly at infinity. I have to still double focus (a little) and bring it back from infinity a bit. AND then I can't take advantage of the Nikon's brilliant sharpness because I obviously can't move it beyond close to infinity. Hope that makes sense. By the way, the Canon 40mm Pancake is really good with the isco too, I've noticed. So, I want to find a great wide lens for the isco thats super sharp at infinity but, um, I'm broke now after all this ;o) haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tommykristensen Posted November 1, 2013 Share Posted November 1, 2013 Well, both are amazing shots. Loved the Salton Sea video - especially the scenes with the old battered tube-tv and the last one - with the Heron? The isco's are also fine, not as sharp as you mention. The one with the door is really great. roccoforte 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
premini Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Amazing! i think the Bolex has the best flares i've seen in an anamorphic lens. I NEED one :) I have one question, have you used any LUT of filmconvert in Resolve? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeroen de Cloe Posted November 17, 2013 Share Posted November 17, 2013 did you shoot RAW or Prores? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrison Geraghty Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Beautiful shots man, makes me feel affirmed in getting the Bolex, really unique image. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roccoforte Posted November 20, 2013 Author Share Posted November 20, 2013 I shot this Pro Res before the RAW came out, which I still haven't used cos my cards aren't fast enough. I have the demo of FilmConvert in Resolve. Pretty nice to use, may buy it. No LUTs yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caleb Rasak Posted December 9, 2013 Share Posted December 9, 2013 The look of this film is beautiful. Very filmic. Cant wait to get my black magic production camera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prosonic Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 Excellent images Paul! I was wondering, what was actually the crop factor you got using Nikon AIS lenses together with the Bolex adapter in the Black Magic Pocket Camera. Some of the shots look amazingly wide.

carlmart Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 Can you explain a bit more on which anamorphic converter did you use, on which lenses and else? I'm relatively new to anamorphic in video, particularly optical converters. How you desanamorphize it during edit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew00 Posted December 19, 2013 Share Posted December 19, 2013 What's the widest you can go without vignetting? I'm using a BMPCC with just a Panasonic 12-35 - really good lens, IS, 2.8 constant etc - think its 58mm filter size. Wondering if the Bolex would work with it? The Pana is what, 35-100 in full frame terms? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
