Please checkout the KZread channel Chris Filmmaker he is french and is very good with his Panasonic GH5 and Blackmagic 4K camera. And also checkout a film titled Shanghai, Scarlett and Me it's on KZread

2:48 This scene gives me Spirited Away vibes with the music. Perfect.

This is the best quality anamorphic gh5 video I've seen! Now I'm going down the rabbit hole into the projector anamorphic world. But I love it!

I created a movie in my head while watching this. A movie about coming of age.

Maybe the most beautiful GH5-Footage I have ever seen.

Looks like you're getting the most out of the GH5. The composition, image quality and colour are amazing!

One of the best footage i've seen on KZread. Congrats for the stunning work!

beautiful shots! beautiful glass!

Visually, one of the best videos I've ever seen

I knew in my head that there are still capable cinematographers on this planet. One more reason to conserve this blue marvel. Thanks Tom - although you cannot help it being so good ;-)

beautiful work of art

Apart from the beautiful shots, this is also a beautiful memory :)

Sorry all I did was hold my phone to my ear and close my eyes. Ennio morricones cinema paradise music is just beautiful

so clean felt very cinematic..

Wow 😍 breathtaking Amazing grade I can only dream of achieving such colours

wish i could like this twice! the song is great!

There is something special about the 2x anamorphic image. Nice!

Incredibly beautiful work! I like how this solution is a little more messy and soft on the edges than some of the higher end options out there. It really makes me think twice about using a SIRUI lens when I could probably get a setup like this going for a little less.

I like it ...., ohhh color grading , please make some tutorial about your grading ...

0:37 Magical! Nice shot🔥

still shocked at how good this is

this is amazing, it's like cinema, great job, I used to have GH4, now I'm thinking about buying GH5 soon, your video convinced me even more to do it. Fantastic footage!

@@SatyamSaxenaLethalVenom Forgive the late reply, just saw the comment. I have an ISCO RED. I found the ISCO sharp when paired with the nFD 50/1.4. I would shoot the NFD starting at f2 for best results. I'll report back if I find some footage. = )

Superb!

Amazing

Wow I'm blown away. Shot on a gh5!

I like this video, its good

Great colour grading with the Panasonic gh5 I want to eventually purchase both the Panasonic gh5s and gh5 and Panasonic s1

Very nice 🙂

Beautiful!! Great choice of music as well! How was the double focus with the Isco? I am currently looking into buying my first projection lens but the double focus sounds like a nightmare, especially while street shooting but you seemed to manage well!

Amazimv love anamorphic

wow

Some of the nicest looking footage I've seen out of an Isco Ultra Star. 50mm on a 0.64x speedbooster is super wide, too! Did you use a HCDNA?

@TomBolles

Thank you! No, everything in this edit was dual-focus. I do have a Rapido front variable diopter 16A, but it makes the rig a lot bigger/heavier and causes vignetting, so I didn't use it during this trip. Using it with an 85mm taking lens fixes the vignetting.

AMAZING

This is really impressive. Did you purchase your Isco Ultra Star from Vid Atlantic?

This looks fantastic I am looking into getting the same setup on my p4k and the 0.64 booster. Any tips / hacks? How did you focus?

Amazing results man! Did you use, any clos-up filter ?

It’s not hard but it takes a bit of extra time. You have to guess the distance to your subject, then turn each lens to the right distance marking. Then zoom in digitally on your camera and fine tune by eye. It works fine if you have time and your subjects are not moving a lot. If you need to be fast, or if you need to rack focus during the shot, you’ll need a variable diopter, which I use in some of my later anamorphic videos.

What profile did you use to film this. And what lut did you use to cour grade.

@TomBolles

4 жыл бұрын

V-Log L profile. I responded to a similar question so I’ll copy that response here: Within the overall grade there’s two that I use at different points for specific reasons. The first is FilmConvert’s Kodak 5207 Vision3 emulation, which I like to use instead of Panasonic’s proprietary V-Log to Rec709 LUT because the V-Log has a magenta shift that’s annoying to correct for. The second is Juan Melara’s Linny recreation, which I used in LUT form because this was an old project that I was working on in FCPX and it lacks the color tools to make those adjustments without a LUT. Now I use Resolve though, so I just do it with various nodes and that’s nice because it allows more fine-tuning.

did you shoot in log? if so what lut did you use? colors look really cinematic

4K Anamorphic. Its technically 3.3k (3328 x 2496) but I guess they call it 4K since the megapixel count is similar to DCI 4K due to the taller image size.

That is excellent

Over distortion, doesn't seem to serve a purpose every time in framing. Over contrast neither. The Isco MC (ur 50mm, 1.8 taking lens) is near distortion free, but if u add the anamorphic element + x0.64 metabones u'l get out of the design enveloppe and kill the anamorphic pleasure... If u need more fied u'd rather try a x 1.5 crop sensor instead M4/3. People have to remember these lenses are design to cover at least S35, and in some case full frame, over 105mm for the taking lenses.
