Hey Causbury! Thanks for your feedback! I'm glad it helped you with your decision. They are both absolutely great lenses.💪🏼

Love the proteus lens more. Seems to have way better more natural skin tones. Would love to get one of those beasts. I wonder how consistent the colors are from lens to lens. I trust that laowa has that under control but lens color shifts are definitely common in cine lens sets. Great review

I just demoed all four of them, shot color charts, I haven't gotten too into the footage yet but just from a quick conversion grade, all the colors look spot on.

Its like the Proteus anamorpchics harder in every specific area but then when you have the comparisons the orion always seems so much more pleasant.

@Allinfilmmaker

Жыл бұрын

It’s very hard to to tell. There is also the over all look and feel you’re right. I like the bokeh in the Proteus a lot more because it’s very oval and not so edgy. But the flairs on the Orions are more pleasant in my eyes. But if you consider the price points it gets even harder.😬

Okay yes it is interesting especially paired with 16:9 sensors, but i personally don’t like the distortion from the Mercury. It remembers me to a gopro with anamorphic characteristics :)😬 Maybe avoid the wider focal lenghts.😅

Quick correction. The front diameter is 114mm on both not 140mm. Just did a quick check on B and H. Good video though! Definitely interested in the Laowa lenses! 😊

Thank you mate! Yes the Laowa is really an amazing lens, but i allready bought the Orion before the laowa exist so i have to use that.😁 But yes it’s definitely a unique lens!

Obviously both lenses have a little bit of focus breathing, but are they both also slightly changing the squeeze factor at different points during focus racking?

@Allinfilmmaker

Жыл бұрын

Yes every anamorphic lens has some breathing. But for anamorphic lenses they are very solid. Maybe a tiny bit but i never testet it with a chart. But never as heavy as some sirui anamorphics. 😬

Does anyone know if there are any Proteus vs. Nanomorph tests...? I can't seem to find anything. I demoed both today and couldn't believe how nice they both were.

Interesting. There’s a mention of CA on the Proteus but not the Orion but in the video by FilmRiot there was quite clearly a lot of CA on the Orion and NOT the proteus. That was against a black and white focus chart. Probably worth checking that again..

Yeah i saw this too but what i noticed is the CA is only in very bright light sources. Also in the cars head light. But when it is focused properly then the CA in the Proteus is gone.

I had the feeling that the Proteus is sharper wide open and also easier to get things in focus. In the creatively aspect the softness from the Orion can also be interesting. It depends on the project… And mostly you don’t shoot always wide open around T2.8 the Orion is sharper too. But why the Orion is in the nighttime sharper wide open compared to daytime i can’t figure out.😅

Yes exactly neither on the Proteus as well not on the Orion. Around 05:25 you see the sensor coverage. It is enough to work with the FF sensor because you have to crop the sides anyway with the 16:9 sensor. If you need you can use clear image zoom to get more coverage.

Yes, it can happen that you see something CA. Imperfection is something that is visible with any anamorphic lens. I like both, but I bought the Orion before the Proteus was available =) Thanks for the kind feedback, I really appreciate it! =)

What do you think a budget camera can work well with this lens? Of all the options, I am currently considering only the canon r6 mark ii, because it can shoot video in 6k.

@Allinfilmmaker

Жыл бұрын

Hmm depends on your exact budget. And what else you want to shoot with it? Something like a Black magic 6k will work too. Its „cheap“ but there is no usable autofocus. Higher resolutions than 4k are only important if you have to deliver a final 4k file. I used it with the FX6 so it’s also only a 4k camera. So it really depends what else you want to do with the camera.

@@badzombie3942 sorry for the delay! Yeah i am mostly a sony shooter so i can’t give a lot of different inputs on other brands. I use also a A7IV and i think with that one you can work too. But there are a lot of things to consider if you are unsure about the right camera. Can give you only some factors which you have to choose at the end. Which color sience you prefer? Which resolusion you need? Which maximal framerate? You need a good Ibis? What glass you want to shoot with? Also PL mount? What kind of memory cards you have to buy when you get the cam and how expensive is it? You need the possibility to shoot in RAW? Haha and a lot more. If i had to buy a new budget cam today i probably would go with the A7IV. Hope this helped you✌🏼 And yes you’re right Pocket 6K is not the best build quality.

@@Allinfilmmaker Thanks! A7V is really the best choice right now. You can put up with 4k resolution, considering how many wonderful lenses you can install on the A7 IV. For example, 24-70 GM2, which has a higher bokeh quality than most manual lenses.

I just find these lenses to look similar, though the out of focus that atlas is less busy, and the flare characteristic is way more interesting and stylish

You’re right the flairs look way smoother but the bokeh is more oval looking in the proteus the rest is nearly identical. The color rendering is also a bit different i noticed while testing but can be easily fixed in the grading process. Thanks for you comment and a great day!🙏🏼✌🏼

Yeah it’s not the same squeeze so its difficult to compare. But it fits better for a 16:9 sensor that is a fact. I never had a mercury in my hands but i saw a lot of distortion. Remembers me to the gopro look.😬

Hmm, next to Atlas Orion I don't like how Laowa looks at all. Kind of dull, artificial looking horizontal flare and also feels like at close focus the squeeze ration changes to something like 1.5x . The last one is kind of a bummer because what I've always loved about anamorphics is that they make people look slimmer in the frame

At the end it’s a matter of taste i am quite happy with my Orion exept for the bokeh sometimes it is too edgy or like a raindrop. The Laowa has really a beautiful bokeh but yeah im happy with the Atlas :)

Proteus has the best flash character.

@Allinfilmmaker

Yes with the flashlight i think the atlas reacts a bit strange, but it was also a very strong flash light. But in the cars head light i like the Atlas more. I think it depends in wich exact angle the light falls in to the lens and how strong the light is.

Both are almost great looking...i feel colour is. More rendered better on Orion ...and a more warm and have filmic look and organic..if i hv to choose one i will choose atlas..
