These lenses are beautiful even without a booster. I’ve thrown them on my gh1 and it looks amazing

Thanks! It is really a lovely pice of glass.

Such a great video! Really inspired to pick up some of these lenses! Saw your post in the S series for video FB group!

Really nice!

Mamiya 645 lenses are really good, I have a bunch I use with my GFX 50R. Their macro lenses are excellent, on par with modern lenses IMO when it comes to image quality. I use them for negative digitalization. I also have a few teles for used for cityscapes and landscapes that produce amazing results. They just need a little more care when shooting, getting the focus right, choosing an optimal aperture, reducing vibrations from the camera using the electronic shutter and having a firm platform to rest the camera and lens.

@@nowisthetime6093 I think the 80 1.9 might be a little soft... 2.8 or 4.0 macro are likely to give you more sharpness. See my other response with sharpness test results. Overall color rendition from Fuji lenses are better in my opinion, but not that far off.

first 20 seconds of the video and im excited af!

I am getting a Canon FD 55 1.2 that I will compare with the Mamiya 80 and my Zeiss Milvus 50 1.4. So be on the look out for that video👍

awesome video you convinced me

How would it compare to the contax zeiss? Thank you. The 80mm is the focal length for FF. Boosted on a MFT system it becomes a 55mm on MFT, ~110mm equivalent in FF I think

looks very soft

Hi, could med format lens fit onto nikon d850 but not via adapter as you dont get the full benitits of the lens but rather is there a med to full frame speed booster to get the full use of the med glass and increase in f stop speed. Thanks in advance :)

Thought I'd share my sharpness test results. I don't think I'll be able to make a video about it anytime soon... I've tested all my Fuji GFX and Mamiya M645 lenses with Kipon adapter on my 50R using a focus chart and they show excellent sharpness at their sweet spot. Here are my results and aperture recommendation (best in parenthesis): Fuji GFX 63mm f/2.8 - 2.8ok ,4 , 5.6, 8, 11 (8) 50mm f/3.5 - 5.6, 8, 11 (8) Mamiya M645 35mm f/3.5 N - 5.6, 8, 11, 16 ok (8-11) 45mm f/4 N - 11, 16 (11) 80mm f/4 N Macro - 5.6, 8, 11, 16 ok (8) 80mm f/4 Macro - 8, 11, 16 ok (8) - more contrast than N 120mm f/4 N Macro - 5.6, 8, 11 (8) 120mm f/2.8 A - 5.6, 8, 11 (8) 300mm f/5.6 N - 5.6, 8,11 (8)

Sphaera...I recommend you get the Mamiya 80mm f2.8 N...It's probably the sharpest M645 lens they ever made as well as being small and light. Perfect for use on mirrorless cameras.

The max f-stop for the Kipon Baveyes is f2.8 btw. Anything faster than that is gonna be mega soft and not look quite right.

Thanks for the heads up Evan. I was thinking of getting this Kipon and the Mamiya. Then it occurred to me that a cheaper alternative would be another FF vintage 55mm or 50mm F1.4. But I have been wondering if there is a difference between the images they produced. Now I think I'll just go with the Canon FD.

Nice images from the 80mm. I use it on my Hasselblad X2D without speedbooster, and on my X1D for movie shots.

whats the best lens adaptor/speed booster/ vnd adature for the medium format lens ?

What camera are you using this with? what sensor size? thanks

Great

Don't forget to flock your adapters! Most of the adapters have no internal light damping. This can lower contrast and colour fidelity.

I’m looking to try this with my Red VRaptor

I am looking at this adapter to use my phase one and mamiya 645 AF glass with my Sony A7RIV. I just wanted to confirm that you can electronically control the aperture? Does it electronically control aperture during video recording too? Or did you only test with manual 645 lenses? Thanks!

There are no electronics in the Kipon Speedbooster so it manual aperture only.

Just wondering what camera you shot the test footage with the Mamiya lens on ? Not seen in description . Thanks so much . Great work 🎉🎉

Hi, I would like to know if anybody has experience adapting m645 lenses into ef mount first then use ef mount speed boosters. What is the difference vs using kipon's native m645 mount focal reducer? If ef mount works just as well in this case, wouldn't it be way more flexible to do so?

Fantastic images and video quality. New subscriber. Any links for these lens and an adapter to use them on a nikon d850 as i cant find anything other than basic adapters which dont give you the full coverage or the additional f stop :)

Hi! I don’t think there is one for Nikon DSLRs. There is one for the Z series. I think the flange distance I too long on the DSLRs.

Hi Creative Nords, I’m tossing up the 1.9 or 2.8 versions because of price. How do the f2.8 versions perform compared to its faster big brother? Because F stops are not consistent in light transmission I’m not sure but maybe it will be amazing compared to the other smaller f2.8 lenses I own 🤔

I have both lenses and I use them on their original film format (Mamiya 645), on fuji gfx and RED cameras for video... I guess it depends what you want to use the lens for and on what camera, but I'll say that the 2.8 is sharper that the 1.9 when both lenses are at 2.8. If you have a questions about specific characteristics of each lens let me know and I'll compare them for you

@@creativenords thanks for letting me know. I was surprised to see some people using pro mist on film cameras also

I wonder how these look stopped down. Yet to see a video where folks don’t blow their load over how they look wide open and think to try them 1 stop closed down.

Should have got the 80mm f2.8 N kit lens instead...There is no point buying a fast lens if it can't be used wide open and the 80mm f1.9 needs to be stopped down to f4 to make it sharp, whereas the f2.8 is sharp wide open, so you effectively get a faster lens by using the slower lens! I have tried the 45mm f2.8 and 200mm f4 too and had to sell them because they simply can't match the optical quality of the 80/2.8. And I don't recommend using a speed booster to mount it, as the optical element/s in it reduce image quality. A straight M645-Sony E adapter would be much better option, and a lot cheaper. I used to use my 80/2.8 on a Sigma DSLR and I made my own M645-SA adapter for it made out of a M645 #1 extension ring. Now I have a Sony full frame mirrorless camera so I got a Sigma SA to E mount adapter and I use my home made M645-SA adapter in between to hold the 80/2.8.

Well it all depends on what you are looking for in the look of the lens. I don’t use vintage lenses if I want a sharp image I use them for the opposite.

Fastest medium format lens ever made is not Mamiya 645 80mm f1.9 any more... Now it is Fujinon GF 80mm f1.7 R WR... Unless to put correction fastest film era medium format lens ...😊
