Ultra Close-Up Portraits Using a Rare Pentax 67 Accessory
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 29 июн 2024
- Was able to get my hands on the very rare s82 Close-Up Lens for the 105mm f/2.4 lens for the Pentax 6x7/67/67ii system. This diopter reduces the minimum focusing distance by about half and creates an even shallower depth of field, resulting in some very interesting portraits and images. This close-up lens diopter for the 105mm is not the only way to achieve a closer focusing distance, extension tubes can also be used.

I am definitely in the "not everything has to hit perfect focus" camp. It is about the emotion that the photo draws. So that shot were you just missed her eyes -- absolutely gorgeous. Excellent work and video
thanks! I've gotten a few photos slightly out of focus like that that I end up really enjoying.
Well it looks like I’ll be shooting in close at 5.6 cause 2.4 is difficult af but 5.6 still looks great. Love the shots
Thanks dude. F/5.6 def seems to be a nice sweet spot
Two videos in one week? Yeehaw! 🕺
Man, you can cut bread with that razor-thin DOF.
Wonderful photos as always, Brae.
Haha thank you!
Haha this is not about the videos subject, but is this your room? 3:19 Such nice use of colors and furniture!
Bro these are amazing!!
Jeez talk about razor thin, fair play for getting any of those in focus haha Lovely shots man.
We tried haha! Thanks dude 🙏🏼
Excellent. I use close up lenses and extension tubes usually around the house or when traveling to change things up.
I much prefer using 1 to 2 stops from wide open.
With the P67, my go to is the T132 with the 150/2.8, 165/2.8 or 200/4 (v1), great combos for portraits.
Very nice. Would like to try some close focusing with the 165mm! That seems interesting.
Great way to make an "equipment video" yet still have an interesting story that's your style. That thing works remarkably well! I'd say it gives way better real world results and is easier to use than extention tubes or bellows. Nice!
Really happy with the results! Excited to use it a bit more this summer 🤠
I've had a handful of diopters for probably a couple years, I should really push myself to use them more
They are definitely fun to experiment with from time to time.
They are even harder to find now. You just drove up the price 100%. I have a like new in box s82. Could maybe be talked out of it. Now accepting insane offers.
What? a Brae Pentax67 video and no MLU button pressed accidentally ? Am I in the right timeline?
Really insane how close you are getting with that accessory. And getting the second roll in focus in a time crunch.
Haha the 67ii makes it more difficult to accidentally hit the switch. I am long overdue for a nice accidental MLU photo though!
That would be sick with some P30 and a blue filter.
11:08 crazy how nice the bokeh is still at f5.6 here
f/5.6 definitely seems like a nice sweet spot!
Very nice shots! You get a really nice look with that thing.
It does provide some fun results!
Alicia was a very good sport to put up with you being that close with the camera. My significant other would have pushed me away after the first 10 minutes. Surprised at the number of good images you got at f4 but the 5.6’s were the best overall. Did you try any other f stops like f8
I only stopped down to 5.6 in this video. Will likely mess around with some at f/8 and f/11 in the future!
I've been using this kind of close-up lens diopters on the Bronicas (SQ-A & GS-1) and it's quite fun but like you said, stopping down's almost mandatory :)
Haha yeah it really is if you want it remotely sharp. The softer look can be fun for certain scenarios.
This is interesting. I wonder how this compare against the 135mm macro for my Pentax 67, other than the wide aperture of course.
Would be interested to see that comparison myself!
@@BraeHunzikerMessaged you
model is extremely beautiful!
Indeed!!
What're the advantages of this over the extension set? Thanks.
Portability, screws onto the end of the lens instead of between camera and lens. Extension tubes have advantages too
@@BraeHunziker thanks for the reply! Yeah I’d not heard of this filter before. Super interesting.
In the heyday of film 18min double prints was normal.
the obvious question - why didn't you use extension tubes? do elaborate as i am genuinely curious. tyvm for the vid.
Honestly, I just thought the fact that this diopter is a bit rare was cool and fun to make a video about. The advantages I see with this diopter over extension tubes is that it's a bit smaller than the set of extension tubes would be so it's easier to put in a filter kit and travel around with. And certain people might like that it attaches to the end of the lens instead of between the lens that way you don't have to take the lens off if you want to take an image at a longer focal length. There's certainly advantages to the extension tube system too though so it can really go either way.
Ease of use really.
Close up lenses- diopters require no exposure compensation. Extension tubes do. While P67ii would automatically compensate exposure when using the AE prism finder using extension tubes, the P6x7 & P67 would require manual adjustment.
And as Brae mentions, portability.
Use a tripod
Bro, I wonder if your model is charging you enough?!?
Thanks for the great videos. I just never consider anything below 5.6 but your videos always make me think, like it is kinda acceptable to let the tip of the nose be slightly fuzzy providing the rest is in focus
Haha yeah she isn't for sure.. Shallower depth of field definitely works well for certain scenarios!
