gokey Posted July 5, 2012 Share Posted July 5, 2012 Hi there, Got my adapter a few days ago, started testing with it. I love how it works with the old pentax lenses I have. Seems to work best from F4-F8 Gear Used: -- GH2 Cluster v4 driftwood -- pentax-m SMC 50mm 1.7 -- Bell & Howell Kowa anamorphic apdater 2x -- Mattebox -- Polarizer 4x4 -- Graduated filter -- Here is the result http://vimeo.com/45013630 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mirrorkisser Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 looks very nice congrats! its very stretched, far wider than cinemascope, was that intended? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gokey Posted July 18, 2012 Author Share Posted July 18, 2012 When you record with AVCHD you can only record 16:9 ratio This means when filming with a 2x adapter the 1920 becomes 3840 so its 3840/1080 --> "3,55x ratio" The original adapter was intended for 35mm or 16mm film with a ratio of 4:3 so the ratio became 8:3 --> "2,66x ratio" with is more common in cinema. Because the avchd does not allow 4:3 recording with the GH2, 3,55x is the only option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KarimNassar Posted August 3, 2012 Share Posted August 3, 2012 nice but all you shot is the sun and the rest is hard to make out I guess you wanted those anamorphic flares ;) I'd be happy to see your next test with some elements properly exposed and in focus to see what your lens can do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
