Charli is a great addition to your videos, if she is available you should bring her back. You two work very well together, it is nice to see a model in a photography video who is part of the discussion, not just a subject for the pictures.

Charli is the best model that I have ever seen! She is extremely photogenic, she is pleasant, witty, and can ad lib on the spot quite well. Your photography of her is absolutely outstanding! You two have amazing chemistry together and it shows up in both the photography and the video footage 😊

Always beautiful pictures! 👍🏼

Now that is some stunning portraiture... Great work!

congrats to you both - - - Charli has a lot of wit and seems nicely enhanced by Jimmy's way of looking at her. I feel impressed indeed very nice shots and great "model"/actor... ! :-)

Thanks Cody!!! I told you this is a great lens and it's definitely 'differen't to the Pana-Leica Nocticron in terms of image render for sure. I personally prefer this though the Pana-Leica may appear sharper from distant because of the optical design. But when you look closer, they are equally sharp at the focused area. This is where the 'feathered' bokeh taken place and renders the out of focus area smoothly and a great portrait trait to my taste.

Nice review as always Jimmy. Can't wait to see the comparison between 45 PRO and Nocticron. Keep it up!

Skin tones are nice and seems like a great lens. What WB and picture profile do you use? Were the outdoors and indoors photos shot with the same WB? Thanks

So I’m at a cross roads. I’ve been shooting with a mft system for a few years now and have acquired a number of the oly pro lenses, though still missing the 17 and 45 (1.2). About a year ago I also purchased a full frame canon eos r and have acquired a number of their L lenses. The difference in ff to mft is undeniable but the shooting experience and FPS on my LUMIX G9 are far superior. My predicament lies in getting either the 17/45 combo from oly vs their equivalent but far older Canon EF glass - the 35 and 85 (1.4) price is still of course in play. I’d love to see a comparison of your 45 1.2 oly to its FF equivalent.. but have yet to see a KZread give it a try 😎

In love with her and with the lens.

Have you used the 75mm 1.8?

Hi , Can you make a video and compare 45mm F1.2 PRO with 75mm f1.8 ? I have 45mm F1.8 and 75mm f1.8, but I am not sure if buying 45mm F1.2 PRO can be beneficial for me.

@Red35Photography

Hi Gyte, thank you for watching our video! Well, a short answer is not. You will not be able to achieve the same DoD as full frame. This can be said for other cropped sensor system or larger format (which goes opposite) when shooting the same distance. So the equivalent bokeh will look more like f/2.4 than f/1.2 on full frame so you will get more separation from a full frame system at the same distance. Though it depends on your adaptability and you can use a longer focal length to compensate by standing further away to achieve the similar effect if you wish. It's all about learning how to use it on various different systems, whether it's full frame, M4/3, APS-C or even medium format.

Hi Raymond, all photos you see here are shot with Olympus 45mm 1.2 Pro lens. Our end credit simply says which lenses we used to 'film' this episode :) Hope you don't get confused :D The 1.8 version is very nice and compact, as a professional, I need to squeeze every ounce of the performance from the system and the 1.2 allows me to just get that bit more from both the sensor and the lens. The bokeh, is nicer on the 1.2 also when shot wide open :)

Great review, I'm would like to know which lenses best choice would be for gh5 between Olympus 45mm f/1.2 PRO and Panasonic Nocticron 42.5mm f/1.2 My uses 90% for video. Until now I was sure I'm buying Panasonic lens... and now come new model but Olympus and its looks good. Need advise

Thanks mate. Well, either are great lenses and very different look. I personally prefer the more natural look from Olympus but Panasonic is very sharp, a little too sharp for me. Another thing to consider is that Olympus’s manual focus ring is just great, much better than Panasonic so if you use MF a lot, Olympus may be better for operation.

6 жыл бұрын

Hi Luis, thanks for watching our video! Well, frankly you have to answer that yourself. I can give you some advice however. Both lenses (or in fact three 17mm, 25mm and 45mm) are all great! 25mm is bang in the middle and definitely great as a versatile general standard prime. I love using mine for 'everything'! 45mm is great as a medium tele, great for detail landscape, head or head & shoulder shots. 25mm can do the same actually though I would avoid head shots because of the focal length isn't the best for that. head and shoulder is ok. Then because 25mm is a standard focal length and you can use it for almost all the time and still have the capability to isolate background if you wish. 45mm is of course longer and definitely has better bokeh (or more visible). So it depends on what you shoot most and decide which one you want to go for.

@14:13 - - I love this photo... she looks awesome.

Hello! Nice review! I do have a question, if it's possible for you to give me an answer, I'm looking for a lens that'll use mostly for video on a Gh5, I was thinking to the Olympus 40-150mm f2.8 pro, the Olympus 45mm f1.2 or the Panasonic Leica 42.5mm f1.2! Ca you tell me witch one will have the more noticeable background compression, is the 40-150mm have more than the two others on 1.2, the focal length is compensating to have a much more compression? Thank you for your time! Loving your channel!

@Red35Photography

6 жыл бұрын

Hi Mircea, thanks for watching our videos and support to our channel! Much appreciated! Most of our videos are shot with 25mm with the occasional use of 45mm. In terms of ‘compression’ it’s a focal length issue so the longer the better. But in terms of background blur, subject isolation, the 45mm 1.2 is quite good and better than 40-150mm in that regard but by 100, the difference is minimal between 45mm 1.2 and the zoom at 2.8. However, do consider two things, first, you need to work on your distance with the zoom while the 45mm/42.5mm allows you to get in tighter space while still having the isolation. Second, at 2.8, you are losing a few stops of lights and it means you need higher ISO to compensate. Between 42.5 and 45mm, I will choose 45mm as it’s slightly longer hence still better and couple with the manual focus ring, it’s great for videos too!

Thanks a lot for your answer, i was leaning my self for the two 45 and 42.5, the only thing that keeps me from going 100% for the olympus is the OIS with the panasonic! Do you think it worth buying the Panasonic because it has the OIS? Thank you again!

So now my options are even harder! Those sample pics were great!! Could you do a three way test - Voigtlander and panny leica 42.5 vs the oly 45? I'm unsure which to go for, but the oly is tempting me slightly more....i'm currently on a gh5 with plans to buy a 2nd body in 2018, an olympus of some sort, not sure which just yet.

@Red35Photography

6 жыл бұрын

Thanks John!! Well, for a start, I can tell you straight away that if you plan to shoot wide open, the Voigtlander is nowhere near as sharp and solid as either Panny Leica nor Olympus. Are you planning to use MF for both stills and video? In terms of DoF, you may get just a tiny more with Voigtlander but only just, second is actually Olympus due to it's new optical design, bokeh balls appear to be larger than those on Panny Leica. Both Voigtlander and Olympus have a classic film look while Panny Leica is definitely more modern (rendering). I personally prefer Olympus for that matter. You probably know by now that Voigtlander, despite its 0.95 aperture, it isn't quite usable due to its soft characteristics unless you are going for the dreamy look, if you want some sharp results, you need to stop the lens down which then the other two lenses may give you better results.

@raksh9

3 жыл бұрын

I own the Voigtlander 42.5mm and Olympus 45mm f1.8 and f1.2. No Nocticron at this time, though. The Voigtlander renders like a classic SLR lens with fairly low contrast, organic rendering and soft but characterful bokeh. By comparison, the f1.2 Pro lens has a more modern rendering, and more smooth, almost featureless bokeh. At f1.2, the Voigtlander is sharp and looks superb, although it renders highlights with octagonal shapes. Stopped down even further, it creates very pronounced sunstars, which the Olympus does not. Manual focus is more precise and smooth with the Voigtlander, but that is to be expected. Focus throw is shorter on the Olympus, but with practice, it is usable for manual focus pulling. I find myself using the Olympus for the convenience of autofocus and lighter weight. The Voigtlander can get a bit front heavy by comparison. But if I want a classic rendering that looks artistic and high quality, I go with Voigtlander.

I love this video and the photos. Is the 45mm f1.8 good close to the new 1.2? I don't have money for the 1.2, so the question... Thanks

@Red35Photography

TheAgam96 Thanks for watching our video and support :) Well, the 1.8 version is compact and light, perfect for travel. It’s a good portrait lens but in terms of optical performance, it’s probably 90%. The Centre is sharp but the 1.2 version is really designed for using the higher resolution shots and it’s well corrected lens. 1.8 is great and value for money if you are on a budget and not using the weather seal and that extra stop of light (or extra blur). Hope I answer your question. You can certainly do many of what I did in this video with the 1.8 version :)

Red35 Photography Thanks! The only lens for portrait that I have is an old Minolta 58mm f/1.4. (116mm on m43) Ok, it is manual and don't have all the technology of a new lens, but it gives me an idea of "soft focus" at 1.4, I think like the olympus 1.2, you talk about this around 8:00 in your video. Also the Megapixels questions, I agree, here in Italy we call that Megapizze 😁. So, last question, I have the 25mm 1.8 and the Minolta 58mm 1.4 manual. The question is: need I a 45mm for portrait? There is much difference in terms of focal length from a 90mm to a 116mm? Maybe the panasonic 42,5mm 1.7 is better or with the Olympus camera work better an olympus lens? Thanks for all

@Red35Photography

Well, if you want AF, then the 45mm will do the job nicely and fast. It has the classic look with modern sharpness. 45mm will always be more flattering than 42.5mm in my opinion. the 58mm 1.4 is great though it's from another era so it won't be as sharp when compare to more modern glass.

There is definitely some kind of chemistry between these two ....!

Thanks Chris for watching the review mate! Charli is indeed beautiful and talented! Ok, in terms of worth, to me, as a working professional, we will pay anything (if one can afford) for a faster lens because the way we work, at locations, tricky lighting situations, a faster lens give us valuable options, not just the bokeh and depth of field. Having a faster lens (aperture) also means I can use lower ISO if needed to give a cleaner image overall. So, to me it's worth six times the price. In terms of optical quality and build quality, it is better for sure, six times more, perhaps not. But it does come with weather-sealing (great for location shoot again), faster focusing motor, extra function button (I love that for manual focus) and that manual focus clutch that's great for both stills and videos. But for more causal shooters, the 45mm 1.8 is a great choice and light too, I will take that for holiday and travel :)

Please also compare with the Voigtländer lens.

Thanks mate!! This is just an awesome lens. I will add this to my comparison list for sure and the Olly 75mm is a very popular portrait/medium tele lens. I love it but as it's almost double the focal length, you will certainly have a different compression between the two, even though the aesthetic of out of focus area is similar at wide open.

Thanks Roman!! We will have a lot more in coming months, just trying to find time to do them all :) I personally use my 25mm almost daily and it's been my best working lens so far. But I am looking forward to the new 17mm too as that's actually my golden days work horse focal length in full frame :)

Roman Geber Hey Roman, thanks man! I, too, am very keen on the 17mm because 35mm is my usual focal length when I am shooting full frame for my documentary work :) will let you know of course!

LOL Michael :D Thanks! Our channel is still evolving and currently working around our contacts for guest models and in general. We are hoping 2018 will be our break through year and I am so happy to have so many supporters so early on, really appreciated mate!

I would like to see Olympus answer to Nikons 105mm f1.4. So a 50 or 55mm f 095 :) Portrait master lens with creamy smooth bokeh. And maybe a fast 80-100 f 1.2. Hell yes go for it we now have the large EM1X to handle these babies.

This video makes me want to switch to micro 4/3! The big bulk of my DSLR is getting much now!

theory8sf It’s all about adapting, what many people don’t understand is how you can achieve good shots with composition. I use many different systems professionally and M4/3 is one of them. They are good, small and light. And these photos just tell you that it can also do the ‘big boy’ thing :)

This lens would rarely correctly auto-focus for me with my street photography at around one metre. I am using the EM-1 mark Ii. With auto focus I am losing at least fifty percent of my shots. It's unusable with auto-focus at this distance.

How well would this work for the GH5? Hmmm very tempting for a portrait lens. But that $$$$$ 😭😭

@Red35Photography

Hey, thanks for watching our review!!! Yes, this lens works very well with GH5 :) Although Nocticron has built-in IS but it works independently to GH5's IBIS so it's either using the GH5's IS or the lens but not both (no dual IS). Hence this lens will work just as good as Nocticron. Plus if you are using manual focus for video, you can't beat the manual clutch on Olympus lenses :)

@andymiles5156

The Nocticron will give you dual IS on the GH5 and with the latest firmware dual IS2. The Olympus would be body stabilisation only which is still very good.

what a beautiful model, Charli's so lovely. Feature her more on your videos please. By the way, I'm considering upgrading to this from my Olympus 45mm f1.8. The f1.2 pro is really tempting, but it's quite expensive. I'm still undecided.

@Red35Photography

I do get you my friend. Jumping from 1.8 and 1.2 doesn't sound a lot in terms of light gathering but like anything in photography, the optical performance is 'what you pay is what you get'. The 1.2 Pro is definitely another league above, optical and physical :) If you do go ahead, you won't regret it!

Hi. I really like your videos. Could you please give (either in a comment here, or in a new video), some insight into your approach to colors and curves and the like in-camera when shooting Olympus cameras? Your pictures have a very nice feel to them color-wise and texture-wise. i'd love to understand how.

@Red35Photography

4 жыл бұрын

Thanks mate. For a start, Olympus cameras give me a very good 'base' colours to work with. Then all I need is to tune up the curves and a bit of usual highlights and shadows. I do a little bit of split tones but only very marginal and mild.

@@Red35Photography A true pro! LOL. This in itself is a valuable insight. I know a lot of Fujifilm shooters are smitten with their JPEGs, and I was curious as to whether that fantastic look (obviously more than one lol) you achieve was rooted in the Oly onboard tools themselves. So, for you, the Oly experience is probably more about size and comfort than JPEG engine features. Thx again mate!
