kye Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 9 hours ago, mercer said: This shot is with the Zeiss 25mm 2.8. I posted a similar shot a while ago that was taken with my Canon 28mm 1.8... 4 hours ago, mercer said: I think I may have posted this in my old “Midtone Detail” thread. I don’t really love the grade from either so it may be hard to tell any characteristics. But have it. I'm noticing a bunch of stuff, but it's hard to know what the lens is contributing vs the other variables. The Zeiss shot has a slightly greener tone overall, seems to have slightly less contrast. Any contemplations of comparing sharpness went with the movement blur. Out-of-focus areas seem similar. The Canon in a way seems wider, but I suspect that's the composition of the frames as the Zeiss shot has things front-to-back and the Canon has things side-to-side. Interesting comparison though ???

mercer Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 @kye good eye, yeah they are hard to compare. Both were shot wide open and the Canon is about a stop and a half faster. The Zeiss definitely has less contrast and is only a single coated lens. The WB is definitely different so, that would probably lend to the greener tint with the Zeiss. Also the Canon “test” was shot right after the Summer, so my actor was tanner, lending to his darker skin, which was near impossible to lighten. Motion blur aside, the Zeiss is probably a sharper lens than the Canon, which is crazy considering the Zeiss is probably 30 years older but that Canon lens has character for days. kye 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About a 21mm APSC equivalent. It'll be like an 8mm lens on my Fuj with speedbooster, which will be cool. The widest I've ever shot is 14mm.

JordanWright Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Yeah it looks great at 70mm I used to have a copy that was glowy wide open at 70 but the version I have now doesn't glow as much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thephoenix Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 Sorry i meant at 28mm No vigneting with the metabone ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JordanWright Posted February 20, 2019 Share Posted February 20, 2019 @thephoenix Nah I think the lens covers a full frame sensor, The P4K + XL is about 1.2x so your good to go. thephoenix 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coiii Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Hey everyone! I'm tempted to buy a SLR Magic Anamorphot adapter, but I don't really understand the differences between the 40/50/65 adapter. Is there something like a list of compatible lenses for the different models? I'll probably gonna buy the cheaper one (40) but I'm not sure about the lens compatibility or what kind of lens should I use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thephoenix Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 you would probably ask in the anamorphic section to get specialists answers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thephoenix Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 It is the Mark 2 yes, as good as mk1 I wasn't looking for one but found one by pure luck. Cost me 200€ which i think Is a steal. The lens Is like brand new. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
