Very interesting and useful comparison, thank you! Did you also have experience with the DZO adapter? It seems quite popular. You mentioned you returned another adapter before, maybe it's that? I heard different opinions about it, about compatibility...
Great presentation! I was afraid you might say the Nisi was the one you sent away! I use the Nisi and it's flawless on my bmcc6kff. I almost purchased the viltrox.I can't wait for you to share your thoughts on the Dulens lenses. I have a set myself and they're absolutely great!
Hey I’m deciding between the nisi and Viltrox for my Lumux s5iix. Are you still enjoying it? I just ordered the Blazar Remus set and need an adapter for it.
@@BrendonKPadjasek funny you should mention. Every now and then the nisi adapter tends to get stuck for some reason at both ends. So I'm possibly now considering the viltrox.
@@diazfilms EH thanks for letting me know. I figured I'd give the viltrox a try so I just ordered it. HOPEFULLY it also doesn't get stuck. Will report in a month or so when the lens and adapter come in
Is the cage you have by smallrig the rhinoceros? That one seems to be smaller so it would fit it better right? I have the Tilta cage and I have to take the lens off to pull the filter out.
The NISI ATHENA adapter is bad news, I recently got one . The build quality is good but the problem I think is with the mount finishing, it grinds so much when mounted to the camera, and I know some DPs favor a very snug adapter , but the damn thing won’t come off the camera now, using my all force to unscrew it … it won’t bulge . it locks nicely on lenses without any problems… but now only god can remove it from my camera ( BS1H ) . Contacted NISI costumer service … and haven’t heard from them yet. I watched your video and decided to get the Viltrox for my S5XII wish me luck
Nice video! Does the Viltrox adapter work well with the Dulens lenses? I've been thinking about getting the adapter but the "weird" size of the dulens worries me.
I just bought the Meike PL-L and it came yesterday with my brand new Meike lenses… almost went NiSi… good video 🙌
Let me know your thoughts. I think they updated it so possible it's better now
Thank you i was looking for a good adaptor for my great joy anamorphics

Haven't used DZO but it looks pretty good. The one I returned was a cheap no name brand

Did it end up working okay? In similar situation as you right now and interested in Blazars as well. @@BrendonKPadjasek
@@eainlopez Still waiting on my Remuses. Supposed to ship at the end of the month
thanks for making this video! Very curious how the NiSi ATHENA PL-L Adapter compares to the Viltrox..
Based on what I see, I'm sure it's fairly comparable
NISI ATHENA adapter is bad news, check my comment to know why .

I haven't used the Viltrox one with my Dulens kit yet but planning on it this weekend actually I can try to follow up if you reply to this
@@DustinArmstrongPro Yes that would be great and a big help for me. Thanks!
@@DustinArmstrongPro Hey Dustin! How did you go with Viltrox + Dulens?
my viltrox PL TO M43 doesn’t work with my nisi primes, doesn’t have infinity focus
please make a color accurate one , thats awesome
Great Video thank you so much, Dustin.
🙏
so Viltrox PL-L can be fit perfectly with NISI ahtena prime?
im also waiting for the answer coz i got their PL- M43 and it only works on the 25mm
I had no problems with NiSi and viltrox
Have you found any good speedbooster PL to L mount?
I haven't
Does the viltrox adapter work with ef sigma lenses?
Not this one because it's PL Mount not EF
Don't buy the Viltrox for Fujifilm X mount, it does not work with X-H2s it wobbles.
