Seriously, this is top quality shit. I love the atmosphere, the framing, the play with light, the color, the scenery, the music, just everything. One of the best GH5+Sankor Anamorphic videos out there and i know them all. Congratulations! Edit: Hab grade deine Website und so ausgecheckt, das erklärt natürlich einiges :D Bin jetzt schon Fan!

Thank you! Around 55-57mm full frame equivalent in 2.35:1 aspect ratio. If I would have used the full width of the 2.66:1 image (4:3 mode with 2x anamorphic) it would be exactly 50mm equivalent.

nice images. how did you feel with the equipment you used? Did it give you any problem or make you feel uncomfortable? Would you recommend the lens combination you used "Sankor 16C + FVD-16A + taking lens"?

@janisbrod

4 жыл бұрын

I'd totally recommend this combo, as long as you don't go wider than 50mm. The only thing I missed during my trip was a clamp with rod support, it did misalign itself from time to time. But I ordered a Rapido V3 clamp right after we came back and now it's very solid.

Very nice. Did you use an ND Filter?

@janisbrod

3 жыл бұрын

Thanks! Of course I did, I used the Tiffen variable ND. But it's not that great to be honest, there are definitely better ND-faders out there these days. My two main complaints are that it doesn't have hard stops so it's easy to go beyond the maximum and it doesn't have a filter thread in the front, so you can't put a cap on it. Also, it tends to make the colors somewhat brownish...

Thanks for posting! Have you used any sort of speedbooster here? I'm using a similar setup (BMPCC4k + Lens Turbo II + Canon FD 50 1.4 + Sankor 16c) and I'm getting vignetting. I'm consindering that maybe I could use a dummy canon FD->m43 adapter and get rid of the vingetting this way...?

Hi there, absolutely loved this video~ You said in an earlier comment that you've since ordered the Rapido V3 clamp for stability. Do you think their Front Metal Jacket is necessary for stability as well? Asking because I'm considering your solution. Thanks!

@janisbrod

2 жыл бұрын

Thanks! I wouldn't say it's _necessary_ but it definitely helps (since it has two support points then). The alternative would be only the V3 clamp and then another universal lens support in the front. But I guess the FMJ is a much more sleek and less "frankensteiney" setup.

I did, before I flocked the inside of the lens. It’s not completely gone afterwards but it’s much much better! There’s a tutorial on KZread called something like „How to flock the hell out of your anamorphic lens“. It’s a bit scary to open it at first but it’s actually much easier than I expected. Also, when you put it back together you’ll have to fine-tune your infinity point and that will probably make your lens sharper than it was before opening. ;)

Is this a custom crop or straight from de-squeeze?

@janisbrod

It's cropped to classic Cinemascope (2.39:1) because I'm not a huge fan of the overly wide 2.66:1 ratio. I set the frame guides in the GH5 to 2.39:1 so I could frame it properly - but it still records 2.66:1 (after desqueeze) so you'll have to crop it in your NLE.

I want Sony a7 iii so bad, but im in love with GH5's anamorphic looks. Thx Sorry for my bad grammer.

​@@ZicoNadStarr You could basically get this with any camera. But you will definitely need an external field monitor with desqueeze, crop & scaling functions such as a SmallHD. The Sony doesn't have anamorphic features in-camera, so filming without a monitor would be super awkward. Also, keep in mind that the IBIS of the a7III won't work with anamorphic lenses.

how did you manage with the aspect ratio, it is not so squeezed, as the sanker 16C is a 2x, usually the final result is more compressed, I like your version more, could you share how you did? For example here it is also a sanker 16C but the aspect ratio is more squeezed then yours:: kzread.info/dash/bejne/fX2OzqWCZZmpaM4.html I like yours more, please let me know Thank you

Just use simple 2.39:1 frame guides on your monitor and then crop in post accordingly. You'll always get the wider 2.66:1 aspect ratio (which your video is) when shooting with a 2x anamorphic lens on a 4:3 sensor. That's pretty standard and it's the same way on most professional film sets that shoot with anamorphics on the Alexa or classic 4-perf film. But the 2.39:1 aspect ratio is a much more common final format for cinema, so I just framed for that (using frame guides) and then had a 2.39:1 timeline for the edit (which cropped off a bit on both sides of the footage).

Dude, get your ass to Hollywood already and make some money.

Beautiful!
