But for real, you did a great job here! I was tempted to get some old lenses like this but ended up spending way more money on the Zeiss classics for my work flow. Peace from Norway!

Thank you for being super helpful AND hilarious!!!!

Oh and yes, I do suffer from G.A.S. and I am on the vintage lens kick, currently. I have not been able to remove my Vivitar 50mm f1.8 from my Sony a7III. It's too pretty. Would love to cine-mod it, may consider that.

Haha ! Maybe the more interesting question would be.. who doesn´t suffer from G.A.S. !? I can totally feel you there. Vintage Lenses have their own charme and if you look at the Price difference from a Vivitar to a Sony G Lens example.. that´s just Nuts! I wish you best of luck if you cine mod it !

Great set of lenses! Great content.

I've fallen in love with vintage lenses. I have a Vivitar 28mm f2.5, an Asahi Super Takumar 50mm f1.4, a Helios 44m f2, and a Vivitar 135mm f2.8. They're very versatile and the pictures are incredible on a crop sensor. I should be getting a Canon 6D in the mail TONIGHT, so I'm looking forward to see how they look on all that full frame goodness!

Super informatives Video! Ich habe bei meinem Zeiss Jena 20mm und 35mm ebenfalls die Blende deklickt. Läuft bei dir die Blende danach auch ziemlich locker? Weißt du, ob man da mit zähem Fett nachhelfen kann, sodass die Blende mit etwas Widerstand läuft?

​@@PracticalEffectsGuy Danke für deine Antwort! Für alle, die es interessiert: Ich habe mir dann eine Tube "Silikon Grease" bei der Firma Leitax bestellt. Damit habe ich die durch das Deklicken locker gewordene Blende eingefettet, sodass sie jetzt mit einem angenehmen Widerstand läuft. Auch den Fokus bei meinem Zeiss 50mm habe ich damit neu gefettet und läuft wieder super. Man kann auch sicher ein anderes Silikon Fett nehmen, aber das von Leitax wurde empfohlen und die kleine Tube reicht locker für 10 Optiken oder mehr.

How did you get a 3D render of each lens?

HAHAHA Fantastic!

Is it possible to adapt PL mount?

Bro. Splendid video, you're really funny, I'm new to this film making craft and love your advice. I'll save some money and look into it, can I get the focus ring somewhere to buy as I don't have a 3d printer, oh and I don't have gas.

Thank you very much !! Glad you enjoyed it! i have no clue where you could get those rings. but i´ve put the 3d models of the rings in the description. you could let somebody print them for you, but watch out for the fine Adjustments of the scale before printing. or head over to vintagelensesforvideo channel and look if you find the rings somewhere to buy directly. :) oh and sooner or later we all get gas !! :D cheerio !

I just recently repaired the 180(same newer MC model) and the declicking is as simple as you described on the shorter lenses. Just remove the back and some screws.

@PracticalEffectsGuy

3 жыл бұрын

oh ! thanks for the information x) i haven´t actually even looked at the higher focal length lenses, because the declicking was especially interesting for me to walk from darker places to brighter places with the camera, and i wouldn´t do that with a 120mm lens for example. but still very good to know!

Great video. Im looking at building a vintage set of primes. This Cine Zeiss set you built is bad ass. Im all over the place. I got a Helios 44-2 (58) and am looking at Zeiss/Nikkors (18,20) Takumars/Canon (24,35), , and Jupiters (100,105,135) for an eclectic set on an Sony APS-C.

@PracticalEffectsGuy

3 жыл бұрын

Thx Mate! Yeah, there are definitely tons of other options you can go for. For me it was important to have a lens set from the same Line or at least same Brand. Something like the Helios and Jupiters i would only use if they fit in story wise, because of their different aesthetic. But still, the selection you're looking at sounds fire!

You are funny :) Respect!

How do you do those animations? of the outline of the lenses during the showcase?

i rebuilt the lenses as CG Model, gave them the original texture from the lenses and used a plugin in AE to get the outline effect to make them more dynamic. Hope that helps!

8 ай бұрын

exactly. mine is from "hartblei" if i´m not mistaken. those kind of adapters are rare, but they do exist x)

Wow this is cool. I'm an indie filmmaker so I can't afford the highest quality gear, but this looks great. I may look into this. It's especially appealing because of the Zeiss glass. Too bad the aperture can't go down any lower.. Is there another super wide lens like a 20-28mm that goes down past 2.8 that you know of?

@PracticalEffectsGuy

5 жыл бұрын

yep, there are moments when i wish they would be a little faster but that´s clearly one small compromise here. a super wide angle lens with such an aperture is in general hard to find.. only things that come to my mind is an old vivitar 28mm 1.9 but that´s quite rare.. or you get a SLR Magic 25mm F1.4 CINE Lens, which is actually very affordable with 300-500€

If you want to gain a stop on all lenses you put on your A-PSC or MFT camera try the Metabones Speedbooster- it’ll also give you a wider field of view with full frame lenses when working on smaller sensors.
