- My biggest camera lens purchase regret in life is not fixed. I can rest in peace lol. A young and foolish camera conspiracies in 2017 made one of the dumbest lens purchases of all time. Going with the Mitakon 25mm f0.95 over the Leica 25mm f1.4. I paid more for the much worse Mitakon, and it haunted me for years. Well today, we right the ship! The Leica has returned to where it belonged all along, in my heart. The ultimate combo of Olympus EM1 III with Leica 25mm, vs the Panasonic 25mm f1.7. Can I vlog with it? Is there 3d pop?

Just think if you hadn't made the mistake and bought the Mitakon, this channel would probably never exist as it led you on the search for the Perfect Camera.
female breeding dog in heat please
he literally said that in the video
I usually watch in 1080p, but I switched it to 4K just for the Leica, bandwidth be damned I need to see the 3d pop!
me too😁
His green screen skills are next level. It really does look like he is outside sometimes.
Yea totally. When he is on that skateboard and walking down the street! Wow, great job on that green screen!
Those vlog shots are so cinematic I had to pause to make popcorn and get a flat soda to complete the experience.
The Leica Sneak Attack... Solid gold!
What a great day! Love that you have this lens finally. 3D!!!! You are so right about the older lens magic....
Cool lens! I always liked your Olympus footage most I think (although I'm a g9 user myself), apart from slight white balance shifts it looks amazing!
I was researching for the GH5 that I bought and I discovered your channel. I subbed so I can keep watching your non GH5 related vids. You express yourself through your videos, its art.
I can see it in your eyes. You miss the Fuji. You may have had some autofocus problems, but what relationship doesn’t have its problems. You work them out. You don’t leave each other. Go get your Fuji back, it’s not too late.
What we are witnessing is a severe case of Fuji denial.
@@peterenevoldsen7199 I totally agree.
What I think really doesn't matter. If when you reviewed the footage, it brought joy into your loins, then victory was achieved.
Love your channel its been a big help in purchasing my camera last week. Just wanted to say you would do great at stand up. Blessings
13:35 100% agree! That shot was gorgeous. I would like to see a vlog with only shots like that.
Congrats! You finally got it! It does look great.
Right after you said "not one duck..." at 17:07 a squirrel appeared and started playing in the trees above and behind you! Lots of good information in this video😃
Honestly that Panasonic 25 1.7 held up very well against the Leica
It's a shockingly good lens for how cheap it is.
Hi I love your channels. You are the articulate artist who ate the funny sandwitch.
This one looked GREAT! Great colors, toneh, loved it.
I’m going back to watch the Thailand vlogs to tell old Kasey that one day he’ll make things right and to keep the G85
Tbh the Leica Sneak attack was high art.
Kasey -- I admire you for braving that vicious Canadian winter weather!!!!
the look of the 25mm lenses on the olympus is incredibly good.
Camera conspiracies + Nikon P1000 + FE investigations = Your next channel. Keep up the good work sir.
I have the XT4, my mate bought the G85 with 12-60 kit lens - I find myself suffering from camera envy. The Panny is so much easier to drive. And I like the vibrant colours on the Panny. The video looks horrendous when it is out of focus though.
Extremely happy for you.
The picture looks very pleasing from this lens, the shot in the forest looks really cinematic, fun fact, I've bought this lens some while ago and I've never used it for filming, only for looser's photography lol
*losers
wide shots and colors are just ok. But the actual image close up is extremely nice. Especially the first part in the nature area where he talking. They say gear doesn't matter.😄
Still have my G85 and kit lens (12-60) -- love it. Many other lenses too (Panny and one Olympus -- many vintage manual lenses too). AutoFocus? We don't need no stinkin' autofocus!!!
The look of the new Lumix 50mm f1.8 on my S5 gives me that 3d pop. I absolutely love it.
Another banger video. Great work
My dude. This looks fantastic!
11:56 So hollywood already call you or not ? lol ;p 17:26 the squirrel leaving in the background in the same time as you nice ! :D
Last shot has a hidden background squirrel and it is great content! ;)
wow. just wow. magnificent lense!
i like the cgi squirrel in the trees at the back towards the end of the video
I don’t know why but I just love it when I spot a random squirrel in the background. 17:28
Had that lens on my G9, mystical
This was discussed exactly 5 years ago on the vegetable police channel. Here is the link:
ruclips.net/video/baXN5IuIcAs/видео.html
Fun to watch how this all developed in 5 years.
My advice was to wait for the GH5 and try the better AF Panasonic was promising that time. But the G85 and the Mitakon was already fixed. Not the best decision but on the other hand, with a GH5 and the better AF-S the Camera Conspiraies Channel would probably never have materialized.
The newer Sony battery grips have a spot inside the grip to put the door when you take it off, so you never lose it. Magical.
4:52 one of the best studio shots you’ve ever gotten IMO
This was hilarious😂😂😂😂😂! Couldn’t care less about the lens but the comic release waspric. Keep doing you!
This Channel should be renamed 'buyer's remorse'.
As a gear-head I have come to accept that there is no perfect camera, no perfect lens... in fact no perfect anything.
Craving the next purchase is flawed egoic thinking, living for tomorrow instead of for today.
Make friends with this moment and you will realise you have what you need, and ironically once you cease to 'need' more, that is when it will all come to you.
Peace out my friend.
I used to think the same about this channel until I realized he gets it. There is not perfect camera and the vibe of this channel is "that's life" Have fun, in 9000 fps.
You ruined the cinema.

On Gear Aquisition Syndrome...
Buddha said that “the root of suffering is attachment.” ... The reason desiring causes suffering is because attachments are transient and loss is inevitable. Buddhism says that the only constant in the universe is change, and by desiring you are trying to control and make something fixed.
Yeah dude, he addressed that on the last or second to last video.
Greetings from Thailand my friend . The quality of fruit has improved markedly since you were last here .
That does have 'POP' - impressive. Don't regret it. :)
The counterweight of your invention could be a water bottle, something we often have with us or should have.
The Leica 25 and 45 are great. A tiny bit sterile but a easy fix in post. Super undefeated. The original 90 mm Leica aph 2.0 and the " fat boy" are heavy but under 500 used and great rendition
I was under the impression that you were fearless, a man's man (not in the modern way), an adventurer ... apart from being terrified of any wild creature (like a fly). Now I realize you're also terrified of light snow flurries. Oh, you make me proud to be a Canadian.
That frogs not dead....he's resting! 😁
A pack with a waist belt might allow a counter weight to be used comfortably. The same as carrying a tripod via a sling.
Love your channel 👊🏼
3d pop and awesome color!
I just got the 25 F1.4 for $249 from MBP in excellent condition after originally ordering the f1.7. Both are really good. I actually own one camera and one lens so decided to spring for the extra, like having the slightly faster F stop. Also even though it's heavier by about 1.5 ounces it is the same size as the f1.7. Anyone would be happy with either one but for me it was only about $120 more so I went for it and I love it.
For a second I thought you got a Noctilux 50/1.0 and started shooting full frame Leica vlogs!
It had to go this way,,,🤔We would have you in the camera world to crap on us all the time.😂🤣 glad you got the dream lens i was eye off the 12mm 1.4 for space man sitting hahah love the emojis😃 love the leica run and gun
Love how at the end the camera and indeed the audience decided that black cat was much more interesting than the host. You go cat!
Loved your slo no leap!! I have this lens!! But no decent slo no:((
Cracked up at rule of 1/16ths 🤣🤣🤣
0:35 they sell Leica lenses at coffee shops in Canada? Damn I love that bloody country, so peaceful, kind people and cool stuff everywhere. 🤣❤️🤣❤️🤣
Sincerely, we miss "Thailand you".
Your fans 😁
This was the first prime I bought back when I had a gh2. I do miss those times
Hey Casey, three days ago I was an G85 owner (now I have a GH5M2... 😁)... I'm really sorry to tell you that at 2:46, I don't see any difference between both images... maybe if we go to the original footage, avoid the RUclips compression and do some pixel peeping... sorry man 😅👍🏻
The struggle is real my friend 🤣. I don’t see any difference between panny and Leica lens on my phone.
They are both great lenses. I think the differences can be seen better with sunlight. It's Toronto in December, so yeah, it's miserable lol
Pfffffft. They're for putting on a camera, not a phone.
The image is very close up very nice, the best I've seen. The color might not be as good as the zeiss footage you had inside. This leica has a very nice image close up, totally reminds me of a movie. Wide shot are not that impressive, close up with out of focus in the background, it shines. As for the frog he's just sleeping💤💤🐸☣
"BEST LENS EVER MADE"? ..... Me too, I just got the 150-400mm f/4.5 Pro with built-in telecon 1.25x.....so far, it's AMAZING !
And some say, that battery door is still in the mail to this day...
Is this the metaverse? Mark? I feel like you are in my living room you are popping so hard.
On fire today!🤣
Great job Kasey! Like you I have passed up on what I want and bought shit that I ended up throwing in a drawer never to be seen again until I Have enough shit worth sending to Adorama to get a quote on trading it in. I will never sell camera gear on eBay---the buyers are losers.
Took you to a lake and didn't hide it.... nice
I watched a video a few moths back- Ken claimed this was the best lens in the world, so i ordered one- he was right… Voigtlander Nokton 50mm f/1.2 Aspherical
Awesome !!!
I regret selling my Panny Leica 25mm f1.4. Probably had the best micro contrast of any lens I have ever owned. Sharp as a tack wide open.
This episode to me will be known as “The Dead Frog Vlog”.
Good old tree 26. I always wondered what became of it!
oly /lei enhanced squirrel focus at the end... managed to avoid the human subject and the pond and only get a moving squirrel in focus. What more do you want?
Waiting for you to find an irresistible deal on an S5. I just snagged one for $1,390 with the Sigma 28-70 2.8 for $700, and Panny 50 1.8 for $300. I have no need for autofocus.
A terrific camera - with a learning curve required to achieve very good performance in video AFC. Suggestion: If vlogging, set your video AF settings at + 3 for both Speed and Sensitivity. For studio/talking head stuff, reduce the Speed to 0 or +1, which minimizes the pulsing. If vlogging, I set my AF mode to 1-Area, with human detection turned on, and then adjust the box size to its smallest size or one size larger. This seems to allow the camera to acquire focus almost instantly. Video AFC does work on these cameras, but does require some testing and adjusting. Disclaimer; I use only native Panasonic/Lumix lenses for video work, as I've read non-native items tend to focus slower with AFC, although instantly in AFS. Enjoy, it's an awesome camera.
What about a counterweight that you would likely have with you anyway ie a bottle of water?
A little weave basket thing like they have at the psytrance doofs, simple light and you can drink the water when your exhausted/finished - get Fluoride free water if you can find it.
Shout out to my homie “Tree 26”. Keep leanin hard.
YOU LOOK HANDSOME IN THE WOIDS TODAY
Countdown to hate this lens by you had already started!
BTW these 2 sentences got me so bad 🤣 : " softer than a camel's toe!" " spread those legs wide!"
Brilliant Toneh in your sense of humour!
Ah the nostalgic flash backs to the un-made bed in Asia.
Now you have the Leica look!!! (Die hard Leica shooters only defense!!). Okay wait I’m a Leica shooter too. Lol
Me no Leica! Had one (Mark 1), it arrived yesterday, tried it out at home on my G9 and decided immediately to return it. It was louder than a draw full of knives & forks, Wow, talk about 'lens chatter' - BUT, it was razor sharp wide open and it hurts to have to return it. So, now I'm really tempted to get the Mark II - but will it be just as noisy, I ask myself. That's the drawback with MFT, you have to buy the best glass or else.
Yay!
Never had a Mitakon, so still trying to figure out how much is “wide open camel toe soft” 😅
and the Moral of the Story: you gonna miss the funny squirrels, while looking for the ducks!
(proof: 17:09)
The Russian lens maker Zenit KMZ is coming out with new lenses. I really like the color rendition of the Zenitar 35mm F2.

Is it better than the Olympus 20mm?
You could have used Panasonic’s app to focus on yourself from a distance. The remote access feature gives you the same ability to click on yourself and focus. Not saying the Olympus isn’t a better option when it comes to AF, but it wouldn’t have been impossible with the G9.
He’s said before he doesn’t use the app because it drains too much battery
Also a much bigger hassle. Imagine having to pull out your phone every shot, reconnecting the wifi, draining the battery faster etc. And you can't move from the spot.
I never use gear that must use an app. When it is optional, and it is a client shoot, I definitely don't want to rely on an app with potentially suspect wifi connections.
Behold the TONEH!!!! Damn son!!!
Congrats. Does it work as well with an Olympus as it does on Panasonic bodies?
It works better on Olympus lol.
@@cameraconspiracies OK then! LOLZ
You’re losin’ it, and we love it.
head to head with 20mm 1.4 25mm 1.4 could be on it way
I must admit this lens got realy cinematic look :) or it is mix of oly and leica ;)
You need to try Voigtlander my son. Soon their 50 F1will destroy all before it with its Toneh
the 3d pop thing is real, wth
It's noticeably sharper
Casey, I recently got this lens for my Panny boy G95 and oh man, nothing can get it to autofocus on moving objects! Did I make a mistake? Am I missing something in the settings?
You made the mistake of using Panasonic instead of Olympus. You don't track on Panasonic, you tap and lock.
@@cameraconspiracies OMG senpai noticed me!!! Can I just say, I've been a fan for over a year and I can't lie, I got a Panny because of your videos despite you repeatedly trashing them (what can I say, I love the look :') But yeah, tried the tap and lock, problem is as soon as my subject moves, I lose them... This is on AFS (single point), is there a better setting I should try? Thank you so much for the reply, love you dude!
@@HappyWater45 Panasonic sucks at tracking.
@@HappyWater45 You need to turn off "Continuous AF" in "Movie" settings to get true AFS. But it remains static even if you switch to AFC (don't ask, I don't know). And then you can tap to focus, but the G95 is a fair bit faster than the G85 so it probably won't be as comfortable.
@@AoyagiAichou Hey, really appreciate the advice! Actually Continuous AF has been off, I think someone else mentioned it in another video, idk, but yeah it's definitely a thing. Unfortunately however, still can't keep the focus on a moving subject, particularly one walking towards the camera. What about AF Mode in the Quick Menu, should it be in Tracking? Mine is usually on 1-Area (heard someone saying that one is pretty reliable but I don't think it works well on moving subjects once again). Thanks once again!
Kasey what happened to your hair, looks like the barber gave up half way 😂✌️
tgats because ge is the barber🤣
16:26 I'm pretty sure you should be in the olympics.
Squirrel sneak attack. They will come and get you
