Nice review, I appreciated your side by side comparison with 2 to 4 times more expensive lenses. It helps put things in perspective. True the 24 seems a bit off in colors. Is that avoidable when shooting a video chart each scene and each lens change?

Hi there. If I wanted to experiment with a manual cinema lens (a budget one), I guess a 35mm would be good focal length for my FX30. This Sirui lenses look nice for sure...are these better than the 7artisans 35mm T1.05 or the older Rokinon 35mm T1.5 DS? I don't want to spend too much money since I already own the Sigma 18-50mm f2.8 and the SIgma trio 16/30/56mm f1/.4 but I would like to do some personal /low budget projects with a manual cinema lens-they look cool for sure...which one would you choose to go with my FX30 (I got the smallrig Mini matte pro...yep I'm out of control here!). Thanks for your videos!

I know the focal lengths/apertures aren’t exactly the same, but how do these compare with the Sigma series of f/1.4 APS-C lenses? Would you recommend these over Sigma?

@KofiYeboah

Жыл бұрын

If you don’t mind a manual lens, sure! Check the section comparing to the Sony G Master lenses

What’s holding me back is that I can get vintage lenses with similar focal lengths and similar performances (fringing, chrom. abb., and even size and weight) for a lot less than the nightwalkers. So is the ergonomics (focus rings, weight, and identical size) really worth it over a set of Canon FD lenses?

@KofiYeboah

Жыл бұрын

From an ergo feel, love these except the focus ring is real smooth on the 24, I only have sample copies , so if they can fix the dampening, it’s great, then again these won’t look like the FDs optically

Stupidly long comment incoming but if youre interested in some arguments read through. I apologise in advance for the lenghty comment I'm about to have them delivered in the next few days and test them out so I can only speak from a theoretical point of view. I've been working as a DP for the last 3 years and had a dedicated AC on set that rigs and pulls focus. The FD lenses are great but we often ran into issues with play in the adapter mount (yes, even on metabones regardless if it was a speedbooster or dead mount). That resulted in messed up takes and that can and will become expensive and stressful especially when there's an AD or producer breathing down our necks. The Sirui offered us native mount, fast aperture and consistency across the range in size and weight (amazing for gimbal and steadycam work). I'm aware of the chromatic aberration and we'll be working around that but for the price we can't complain. Plus the 270° focus throw is making my AC very very happy since there's less room for over turning. If you prefer the FD, by all means, I'm not bashing on them, they're amazing, but let's not forget the fact that some are stupidly expensive too and the Siruis are T1.2 including on the 24mm (and become incredible performers past T2). I may be out of touch but from what I know, theres no 24mm FD wider than f2.8 and in some cases the chromatic aberration is visible even at 5.6.

These are „Cine” look alike lenses at best optically.
