- Vintage Lenses On A Digital Camera?
Have you ever thought about using Vintage Camera lenses on your Modern Digital Camera? Well, in today's video I'm going to be going over some pros and cons of shooting with vintage lenses on a digital camera.
A lot of people want that vintage/retro look in their footage, with vintage lenses you can achieve that look without having to do a tonne of work in post!
The lenses featured in this video are Nikon F Mount lenses: 50mm F1.4, 105mm F2.5, 28mm F3.5.

Hope you guys enjoyed! Have you shot with vintage lenses before?
I'll be sending this video to my son that i mentioned before. Very interesting. Thank you! 😊
@@katiemilady197 Thankyou :) I hope he enjoys it
I shoot vintage glass a lot and love how it looks, also using manual focus is kinda fun too.
That’s good to hear man, it just has a magical look about it. I actually enjoy manual focus too 😁
@@TheFilmFinesse same, I recently ordered the ttartisan 100mm trioplan for that magic
I’ve been looking at Ttartisan’s recently, you’ll have to let me know if they’re any good 👌🏼
And Ttartisan is just awesome, really characterful fun cheap lenses, I’ll probably buy from them again
@@QKvoxAwesome man, yeah I hear lots of good things about them
Vintage lenses can be great with digital sensors but it completely depends on the look you’re going to for your project! There’s a time for everything, especially when it comes to using vintage lenses!
Yes, 100% depends on the project, I always prefer the organic look you get from a vintage lens when doing narrative work
Very constructive video as per mate! I don’t know why you don’t have more subs ;)
Thank you mate! I ask myself the same thing everyday 🤣
Cant you just turn down sharpening on your camera? Or don't shoot on Sony?
Yes you can turn down the digital sharpening in camera. The test footage is shot on a Blackmagic not a Sony. As mentioned, older glass is a way of obtaining an organic softness instead of digital methods.
In fact : the main advantage to use good vintage lenses : Have a very simple optical-design, high sharpness...but low contrast. With mecanical focusing with long-travel ring. But your wrong when you talk "less sharpness" : we use some vintage glasses for really good sharpness.
You said it yourself: ‘some vintage glasses’ meaning not all. It is very lens specific, as demonstrated in the video. The 50mm modern lens demonstrated a greater level of sharpness than the 50mm vintage lens.
@@TheFilmFinesse yes, some. Like today modern lenses : i use some of them. Each years i try some lenses. i keep few of them. i think english call that "taste". vintage are absolutely not use today for lack of sharpness 😂 that a internet-hype. We use only the best of the best sharpness vintage lense for shoting today. Just very few. Not about they price. Just for the pictures.
please try to understand : you always be able to pull-off sharpness, in PP. always. But you don't be able to reduce contrast, really, in PP. We use vintage glass for less contrast : because its really help to capture all dynamic range, especially when background are not in focus. It works on film, it work on sensor : less contrast when you capture your pictures is often very welcome. sorry for my bad english.. but, i try to help, no fake no bukshit. good work
@@beyondourarena2207People don’t opt to use vintage lenses for “low contrast”.
Like I say in the video people use vintage glass for the character of the lens. Softness is one these characteristics.
If you want a sharp image you use modern glass like I say in the video. Nobody uses vintage lenses for a sharp image.
