Hey PhotoJoseph (and fellow community members!), I'm a beginner filmmaker from AUS and I'm currently looking to adapt a lens (potentially with a speed booster) on a budget! I was wondering what Lenses you would recommend for an original Pocket Cinema Camera (BlackMagic Design) to get that cinematic look and feel. I would love to do a wide variety of close up and wide shots with varying depth of fields. Thank you in advance for reading, your advice is greatly appreciated!
I have a Rokinon 85mm m4/3 and would love to have a speedbooster. Is there a way to buy a speedbooster that fits a m4/3 to m4/3 in order to get more of the scene.
Is image quality even relevant these days AT ALL with super retarded extreme megapixels and extreme high quality glass, even on the budget side, for us peasants anyways?
Is it possible to pop the speed booster glass out? I have lots of Minolta / Sony A mount glass and a dummy adapter MA to M 4/3 and wanted to pop it in this adapter. The flange distance between the Canon and Minolta mount is very close...Wanted to use it on a BMPCC 4K.
I just bought one for a M 4/3 to Helios 44-2 anamorphic lens. Trouble is the flare wire in the lens doesn't line up vertically when the threads are bottomed out and Pixco doesn't provide the three fixing screws to secure the lens where u want it😮
EXACTLY the video i needed right know answering all my questions! Thank You ^^^^ Edit : ooops talked too soon, you didn't go through the usability of the aperture thing, does it change depth of field or it just take off light like would a nd filter?
The Leica 15mm (30mm full frame equivalent) f/1.7 is the closest, and I love that lens. Olympus makes a 17mm that would be a 34mm equivalent but it’s not as good (I own both lenses). Both are AF and MF.
@@photojoseph Hi. Great videos, you are so vivid. Can you explain, if I combine Panasonic Lumix GF2 + Pixco Speed Booster + Canon 50mm f 1.8 - what do I get? I mean how many mm, what will be f ratio? Hope it is clear. Thanks a lot in advance.
Vertix As far as I know, EF and EF-S are the same mount; the difference is that EF-S is for APS-C sensors and won’t fill a full frame sensor. Since MFT is smaller than APS-C, an EF-S lens should work just fine.
Did you mean field of view? If so, then that's what all speed boosters do. They widen the lenses field of view, more light is let in and the lens becomes faster and wider.

thank you for this video. actually explained what the glass would do with the booster. you rock
Love it when an old video is still helpful!

in the comparison you forgot to mention that the resulting full frame equivalent is 70mm f/1.7 (not f0.84). great review - love your show!
I have a Rokinon 85mm m4/3 and would love to have a speedbooster. Is there a way to buy a speedbooster that fits a m4/3 to m4/3 in order to get more of the scene.
I don't believe there is as the m4/3 lens is made for a m4/3 sensor. what you could do is get a Anamorphic adapter.
Little bit late question, but that iris controll works? As in does it give heavy vignetting and does it cut all light? (As like lens cup)
I haven’t noticed vignetting but I don’t usually stop down much. And no it doesn’t close all the way; what would be the point of that?
Does it vignette when using smaller apertures? I have a Pixco and mine does. The vignette only goes away when aperture is fully open. Thanks!
Not that I saw so far but I’ve done no actual shooting with it. I’ll be doing another show later with real world samples
Is image quality relevant in a review of photographic equipment?
Is image quality even relevant these days AT ALL with super retarded extreme megapixels and extreme high quality glass, even on the budget side, for us peasants anyways?
Turns micro 4/3 into an APSC lol. I like it, APSC is great but doesn't have the perks of m4/3
Is it possible to pop the speed booster glass out? I have lots of Minolta / Sony A mount glass and a dummy adapter MA to M 4/3 and wanted to pop it in this adapter. The flange distance between the Canon and Minolta mount is very close...Wanted to use it on a BMPCC 4K.
I’m sure you CAN take it out, but glass is designed for a specific lens combination. It’s not something you can just swap out. So, I’m gonna say no.
just buy one that's made for your purpose, in other words Minolta to M 4/3.
I just bought one for a M 4/3 to Helios 44-2 anamorphic lens. Trouble is the flare wire in the lens doesn't line up vertically when the threads are bottomed out and Pixco doesn't provide the three fixing screws to secure the lens where u want it😮
Oh no! I’d imagine that wasn’t a use case considered when designed.
I laughed about the major tom part
Haha well I’m glad you’ve enjoyed this so much. Welcome to the channel!

Edit : ooops talked too soon, you didn't go through the usability of the aperture thing, does it change depth of field or it just take off light like would a nd filter?
Have you considered a focal reducer?
Yep! I have a couple. Handy!
Does Panasonic make a 35mm (50mm equivalent) with auto focus and manual focus?
Ty

Hey, thanks a lot for your info.

@@vkrysko 50 x 0.7 = 35mm (or 70mm equivalent on full frame)
Can i use canon 18-55mm lens to the adapter?
Is that an EF Mount lens? Then yes.
PhotoJoseph its efs

Omg. U r pro in speaking
Had to listen to this video at 0,75 speed ;)
Nothing wrong with that. I talk fast!
does it works with sigma 18-35?
If it's a Canon mount then it should but I haven't tested it
If it changes angle of view, it has nothing in common with a speed booster!
All in all a relatively useless advertisement.
Did you mean field of view? If so, then that's what all speed boosters do. They widen the lenses field of view, more light is let in and the lens becomes faster and wider.
