Nice one, Palfers. For me, the number one reason I shifted from photography glass to cinema glass is focus throw. I was getting frustrated at trying to get sharps with a lens that might have a tiny focus radius. A lens with 270° of focus throw is just night and day. Often the optics are the same as photography glass, so really the big differentiator for me is focus. Oh, and as you say, focus by wire drives me CRAZY!
I have just recently learned about the importance of lenses rather than the camera body. And BOY let me tell you, its a lot to take in. I have a Cannon EOS 700D (EF MOUNT) and I don’t know how to purchase a lense (and the adapter) that is made for it considering focal length, crop factor and all these other technical gibberish. FOR SHORT, I JUST WANT TO BUY A LOW APERTURE 35MM LENS that mounts on it and is actually 35mm. Any advices? By the way, your video has been very informative and I loved your shots! Keep it up! Subbed right away
Thanks for watching. If you want to experiment with cine lenses then the Vespid 35mm I've got here is a great option. That said even the cheap Canon 35mm is a great option if you just want to test it out and much better for photography as you'll have autofocus.
Those shots on the Vespids look really good, especially the blue hour scenes at 4:59 to 5:12. Were those shot on the FX3 and were you shooting mostly at T2.1 or T2.8?
yeah all on the FX3 and I believe that was around those T stops. Sadly can't show all of that shoot yet but we used these vespids on nearly the entire shoot switching between the FX3 and a Pocket 6K Pro.
Certainly not a priority for anyone to go out and buy however it does certainly help you shoot in a different way. That said for a corporate interview I'm sticking to mirrorless lenses as autofocus is a cheat code!

Jonathan on question for you please ! The 90 DZO macro VS 90 Sony Macro G ? The winner ?

if you're a RUclips filmmaker, no you don't need. If you want to go a step further and learn from movies, you'll need a film gear.
