What I Learned After a Year of Using Vintage Lenses For Filmmaking and Why You Need Them!
In this episode I want to share my experience with vintage lenses after a year of using them for filmmaking. Showcase the results I was able to achieve and point out some pros and cons. As well as image quality, character, performance, affordability, some common problems, and lens servicing.
For the past year I have used and tasted around 20 vintage lenses and built 3 sets of Carl Zeiss Jena, Contax Zeiss, and Canon FD. You can find the links down below. (They're Awesome!)
We will also discus some vintage lenses that were used in Dune 2 and Army of the Dead movies, and what makes them special.

Like it so much I have 2! Still such a great look and feel.
You can now buy this camera in the UK, used, for the rip-off price of just under £500 lol
@@bourbon_sketcher That’s awesome! You can still find some in really good condition
Got it in Ireland for 330 euro with 3 batteries
The colors have such perfect pop. I have this combo but have used it so little I should be ashamed of myself, haha (main reason: I developed an interest for vintage compact digicams the last couple of years). This video was a bit of a wake-up call and made me inspired to start using the X-Pro1 again; I have some old Hexanon lenses that I can adapt on it as well. 😁
@@ccderik you should absolutely use this camera. There is something special about it!
I just bought a 50mm f1.4 dated 1977 breech lock s.s.c. lens on ebay. It came in the original box ! I could not get the aperture blades to work and the seller let me keep it and refunded my money . I got them to work but only after i opened the lens. I already have a really nice 50mmf1.4 nFD dated 1981. This is a really impressive lens, but i wanted to try the s.s.c. again. I had one a couple years ago.
@@frankartale1026 Awesome! Happy to hear that and I’m sure you will enjoy this lens
Awesome video. New subscriber here. Glad I found your channel! Thanks! 😊 💙💛
I so much miss my Jenaflex AM-1 camera with its Carl Zeiss Jena lenses.
@@ALFarrell-kv6ok these lenses are so good!
Do you find it laggy? What lenses & SD cards are everyone using with this camera?
@@block2pictures not laggy at all. It’s a bit slow compared to new cameras but nothing bad. The lens is original 35mm F1.4 and SD card is 64gb SanDisc if I’m not mistaken. That’s my setup
I have this camera since 7 years ago, and still work perfect
@@raydwija6469 great to hear that! What lens are you using?
What has more magic to it, the X-T1 or the X-H1 ?!
@@TopshelfJunior In my experience XPro1 with 35mm F1.4 OG lens. That combo is amazing. For me Xt1 is great when you used it with vintage lenses. XH1 is great for using with bigger lenses because it has better grip and you can also attach battery grip to it
Today a "legend" label may be put on almost anything. Crappy and slow "first-gen" camera, nothing special being called "legend".
@@evertigo Not true. There is a good reason this camera is loved by so many photographers. It’s still great after over a decade since it’s been introduced
I recently ordered one, great review and images!
@@robrockatansky5905 Thank you much! I’m sure you will enjoy the camera
vintage lenses can be addictive, ive gone down a huge rabbit hole with over 80 so far
@@fistfulloflenses Absolutely! There is so much value in them. They offer unique look and character that modern photo lenses don’t have and cost much cheaper. What are your to 3 vintage lenses?
I love my XT-1 ❤ never will sell it!! She has grown close to my heart!
great video! i just purchased a 35-105 off of eBay, i hope it works :)
Great! It’s a good lens and very affordable. If you want to use it for video make sure to use fixed ND filter not the variable one
Can you film 24fps or 23,98fps?
X pro1 x ever
Гарно)
Unboxing ? noooooo! otherwise a good video
Wilderness is not the beast. It doesn't have a powerful 180 hp motor. It looks better than a 4 runner. I guess you got it for the price.
🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Your knowledge is very helpful, thank you.
For the price they are great lenses, but their prices are creeping up. As someone who uses a full frame camera, I was looking for a small set 35mm, 50mm, 85mm and a 135mm.
Totally agree with you about prices. Even cheaper ones are selling much higher now than they used to. You should also check out Carl Zeiss Jena Lenses
@@talesbyvlad I did, even those are now going up in price. 35mm f2.4 Flek is now £100+, and the 50mm f1.8 Pan is £150+. I found a alternative though, that's just as good...the "tapered" Chinon's, I got a 28mm f2.8, 35mm f2.8 and a 135mm f2.8 for under £75. They are also sold under the Alpa brand, but costs between £200 to £300 each.
Found your channel through a search for the Outback Wilderness (I have a '24 in Geyser Blue), and darned if I wasn't excited to see you're also a photographer. A man after my own heart through-and-through, it seems. :)
Гарні кольори на передньому "лайсенс плейт". Все пояснив коротко та інформативно. Привіт з України!!!
The best place I have discovered to get the highest quality Helios 44-2 is via Iron Glass in their Cine-Modded section. It costs a bit extra, but they will source the lenses for you, clean the lenses, add up to 16 aperture blades, de-click lens and add the correct mount (PL, Sony E, Canon EF, M4/3 and FUJI mounts) without the need for an adapter which is so nice. They also add gears to the aperture and focus rings. They add a 77mm front thread for filters and also will add an anamorph-fake with different options and flare tints. Probably the most thorough way to ensure its gonna work great! They also offer this type of service for a whole range of soviet vintage lenses from 16mm-135mm and even offer them in lens sets that work well together.
And the best part is that Iron Glass provided their new versions of rehouses soviet lenses for Dune2 movie! They also offer rehousing for Carl Zeiss Jena lenses and hopefully will expand their lens lineup
@@talesbyvlad Exactly!
like your video , thanks for sharing
Hey Vlad, great vid, and glad you're having so much fun with your Wilderness!!! We hope to see you out on the trails one day!!
Thanks for sharing your experience with your Outback Vlad. I agree that Subaru have made a serious alternative to the vehicles you described. I somewhat like their big touchscreen and yet I wish they had a few more essential buttons rather than having to use the screen to access frequently required essentials (how much to repair/replace that touchscreen and how one cannot operate certain features if it fails to work) = maybe they will modify it with more buttons during newest versions of Outback. Anyway, happy for you. May the Ukraine be victorious against Putin and may your Allies from Europe and USA, Canada and many others who stand against such an Autocrat/Dictator, and may some USA voters awaken to not vote in a wannabe dictator/king who unfortunately is running for the Republican presidential ticket (hypnotizing many with his rhetoric, expects complete loyalty and submission like an Antichrist and has a history of being a compulsive liar… and is a Putin supporter). God bless!
The process with the x pro Line is just different. Slower, or better more mindful. I want to make a picture, why do I make a picture… and than the decision goes into a meaningful moment. I have lesser pictures and more keepers when I go fishing with the xpro2
Absolutely agree with you! I’ve used many mirrorless but Xpro1 surprised me the most. It’s truly magical camera
It doesn't sound like a review but a commercial...plus CVT is a solid no to me,,
This video popped up as a recommendation. Thanks YT! Instant subscriber here. Great stuff. Cheers from Sweden
Thank you much! I’m happy you found it useful. There is something about Canon FD lenses
Thank you for this. I’m debating between a new outback or a rav4 prime. This is helpful. I hope your loved ones in Ukraine are as safe as possible.
7:26...Oh...So beautiful! So clean!
Thank you! It was such a good day for adventure and filming beautiful views
Great video thank you for the breakdown.
Thank you much! I’m glad it was useful to you
2016 vibes 😢

Hey buddy, which focal reducer do you use for your Canon FDs?
It’s called Zhongyi Lens Turbo II Focal Reducer. I found it on EBay and it’s been working pretty good so far
@@talesbyvlad Awesome thank you. I’ll take a look.
Nice video, my favourite vintage lens is theJupiter 3 from 1951
Thank you! I’ve never heard of Jupiter 3 but will definitely check it out. What’s the focal length of it?
@@talesbyvlad 50mm f1,5
@@ulfjonsson2122 nice! I’m going to check it out right now
Thank you for sharing your experience with vintage lenses. I really like Carl Zeiss Jena, they have so much character but I would love to see a review about lenses that were used in Dune part 2
Carl Zeiss Jena lenses are something! Color consistent, affordable, and produce gorgeous look with great character. Dune 2 lenses are on my list to test!
Is it possible to take the digital edge of photographs by using older manual lens? I’d like to achieve a look to my photographs similar to old leica m6 photographs.
Vintage Lenses help a lot when you want your pictures and videos look more natural to human eyes because they are not as sharp as modern photography lenses. Also, a lot depends on editing
Great video-want to see more on your post-Dune lenses. Slava Ukraini!
Thank you much! Once I get Jupiter 9 I’ll start testing it with the other two and see how good they are. Definitely want to film something good with them.
Thanks for keeping it short and sweet.
I’m glad you found it useful! And thank you for watching
A good photo is taken by the photographer... and not the camera... the X-T1 is more than enough. A good meal is made by the cook and not the pan! But how we allow ourselves to be manipulated by the industry! Greetings from a Swiss living in the Caribbean❤
Exactly! You can take good pictures with the old film cameras. It’s all about the skills and desire to become better as a photographer
good ！
Such a good video about Canon FD lenses! The fact that they are affordable makes it even better
Exactly! The fact that I bought each of these lenses for under 100$ is amazing
Lovely video! Thank you so much for sharing your experiences!
Happy to share my experience with Canon FD Lenses, they are really good and most of them are affordable
you are right !
Canon FDs are true gems! I have 50mm f1.4 and absolutely love it. Would love to try 55mm f1.2 and see how they compare
I was going to buy 55mm F1.2 but chose 50mm 1.4 because I had no experience with Canon FD lenses. I’d definitely wanted to try them side by side
I can’t get over how well this was put together and so much great information. It kind of amazes me that such a detailed breakdown like this is online for free. This channel is a gem!
Thank you much! I truly like Canon FD Lenses and wanted to make my review as good as possible
Everytime I watch one of these episodes I stay for the entire duration! That says alot in the world of 5-10 minute gear reviews this channel is on a whole different level! I appreciate all that you are doing and will share this with my creative community to help you grow! I have my own channel but it is nothing compared to this and you are truly an inspiration.
Thank you much for this! When it comes to camera gear I’m always trying to find something good and useful to share with you guys
Good informative video about great vintage lenses! Contax Zeiss lenses are some of the best ones
They also considered to be optically close to Legendary Zeiss Supper Speed Cinema Lenses
