10:02 Conclusion - Jak na to + styl
I went all in with the V-AF system. 24mm, 35mm, 45mm, 75mm, 100mm, MF adapter, 1.7x Anamorphic adapter. Using them with my Sony FX6 and Sony A7RV. They are excellent lenses, and all of the lenses and adapters fit with my FX6 in a McKinnon 35L backpack. Impossible if i try with my traditional Cine lenses, and the fact the Anamorphic adapter works for all these lenses (I did not get the 20mm as it doesn't work with the Anamorphic adapter), I am carrying effectively a full range of anamorphics without carrying extra lenses. Brilliant design. LOVE these lenses!
Love this comment. Im thinking of getting the 24 and 75 for my FX30 too. Will be useful for my Gimbal during event videography .
Thanks for this work, very informative. Absolutely love your composition and textures, excellent video work!
thank you so much and thank you for watching
Honestly I love taking cinematic photos so this 35mm looks very tempting to me. Great video man as usual, thank you for introducing these to us!
My pleasure! Thank you for watching!
I really have to say the quality of this channel is unimaginably great. I came across this channel about 2 weeks ago and the videos really impressed me. The high quality and every topic perfectly summarized in one video without talking forever. Really perfect 👍
I just had to say that once, because I really like it when "smaller" channels have such great quality.
And btw your lens reviews about sigma 16-28 and the tamron 28-200 really helped me, thanks for that 🙏
thank you so much for very kind words!
you sold this for me! Your composition were too good. Thanks man!
Glad to hear it! Thank you for watching
Thanks for this review. Wishing you much success 🙏🏼
Thanks so much!
Absolutely amazing video thank you ! A lot of work i see
Thank you very much!
Great video, and happy to see some autofocus cinelenses out there!
Thanks!
I will be reviewing their anamorphic and manual focusing add-ons for these lenses soon
Excellent review, Pav! This is a real gem of a video! Thanks for the great content!
Thank you Shane!
Thank you for a great review. Doing homework now for a forthcoming project.
Glad it was helpful!
Very interested in using these for the dji ronin 4d as I have the sony e mount. Great video as there is not alot of reviews on these yet. Liked and subscribed.
Glad it was helpful! Thank you!
Very nice review, definitely has me pondering these or a 50mm F1.4 MkII for my A7IV, thank you
thank you very much!
well reviewed! Thank you!
Thanks!
As a canon user, i'm annoyed canon doesnt allow other manufacturers to create autofocus lenses.
same with Nikon. It really sucks. It could be so many more lenses available if they did
This is one of the reasons I switched to Sony this past year.. so done with canon’s bs. Let people use 3rd party glass!!
7artisan have cine full frame and cropped RF mount lenses
Great video mate 😀👍
Thanks 👍
The background separation you’re getting here looks like most f/1.4s I’ve seen - so good!
it is!
@@PavSZ Do you know anything about T stops and F stops? I know T stops are an exact measurement and f stops aren’t, and I’ve heard other CZcamsrs say this is equivalent to most f/1.8 lenses in terms of bokeh, but it doesn’t look like that to me. I’m definitely going to be purchasing these soon!
@@ryanthompson4846 here is a detailed explanation of t stops: czcams.com/video/zbz4kQFOfxs/video.html
Thanks for this. The quality of your video is really great. Would you mind sharing insights on your color correction/grading? Any particular LUTs, technique and whatnot? Or if you have already made a video on this subject, please share the link. All the best. Hope your channel keeps growing.
thank you!
In this case I have used base conversion LUT from gamut to convert the footage from S-Log3 to Rec709 and then I have used Magic Bullet Suite to colour grade further. I'll be making video about it soon
Hi. Thank you very much for this test. Very nice images! One question regarding the options in the software via the lens dock. ( sorry, I could not find the information on their website) 300 degree manual focus rotation is too much for a solo shooter. What are the other values you can set the rotation to? Thanks in advance and keep on working like that. 👍🏻
Finally a proper review of these lens.
Thank you!!!
Great video, optics look amazing! Wishing I had an a7s3 or a74 to justify picking these up cause the modern choices among ef mounts don’t bring as much value as these
yes, shame that they don't do them for more brands. I'd love to see these on Lumix S5IIx
Wooow
The shots were amazing.
I noticed you too favored the 75mm and no wonder😅
They truly look "cinematic"
So in 2022 we got those sirui anamorphic lenses, now these ones that are around 650 usd... WITH AF
Makes me wonder what we'll get in a few years time.
What a time to be alive I guess 🙂
Thank you!!!
Yes, hard to imagine what else they will all come up with next
These are super interesting! I don’t know if I can deal with the focus breathing.. I’ve been loving my G master for the compensation it provides. But I’m filter stacking like 4+ filters trying to get a vintage look since it’s just so damn sharp lol
that's the problem with these
Great video! Alot of cinema lenses have strong focus breathing. Could it be a part of the look? can't wait to see more
a lot of budget friendly =cinema lenses have focus breathing. It is hard to make them right cheap I guess
Looks nice!
thanks
ilove your color grading
thank you!!!
Me to. Nice colors and revue!
Awesome Samyang lens.
they are
These are SUPER interesting! Great review bro❤️ also meh my SIGMAs breath 🤷🏼♀️
They are! Thanks dude!
These lenses seem amazing, Id even use them for photography.
They are! me too!
Welp im sold. Ill be using them on an fx30. If you have any advice on that combination that would be great.
they are great lenses for fx30
nice bro!
Thanks 🔥
Can I make best quality feature film for theater of this lens and sony fx30 camera please tell me sir ?
I can't see why not
Hi, Which of the three would you recommend I buy first, for video clips and short films? Thank you so much
whichever one is the best for you
I’m trying to decide between these or the 7artisans cine lens set to be used on the A7IV and FX30…..any suggestions????
I'd go for these as I do like the auto focus. That makes them a little bit more versatile overall
I used them on fx30 - nothing special. Also I used them with anamorphic adapter Blazar. Not a sharpest combo with these lenses. It’s hard to tell where is infinity on them. Sony lenses are much more better quality. 7artisans also not great choice. SLR magic CINE for e mount is the best choice for FX30. They have outstanding quality
Hey! Just bought the 24 mm! Do u know what I need for my regular filters to fit on the lens?
regular filters do fit on these lenses
@@PavSZ i thought since the front lookt a little different i needed some kind of special filters just for these ones. But yes a noticed ot was just a regular filter mount😬🙏🏻 and by now I have tested the lens on three projects and I think it performs really well! Not at all like the older versions! 🎊
@@MarkusWesslen Hello. I am planning to buy one. How good are these
Love the color, can you teach some 😊
Maybe in the future I will make a video about colour grading video
@@PavSZ can't wait to watch, thanks
Personally, I'd prefer the new Panasonic S5II along with f1.8 primes over this. On sony, it makes a nice set considering the price for these cine lenses. It is a bargain for the price as cine lenses such as the Samyang CF series are pretty expensive and lacks autofocus.
I do like S5II and Lumix primes a lot but these are different breed all together.
Shame that they make them only for Sony-E
I would love to know, now that the V-AF 45mm has been out, which one you would favour, that or the slightly older Samyang 50 mm mark II? I can't decide between the two.
V-AF lenses are different. These a cinema lenses that are not directly comparable to their standard lens. They have totally different purpose and make the most sense if used together as a set.
Also it is very hard to advise anyone which camera or a lens to choose. There is too many factors that only you know: budget, experience, what you are going to be using it for etc.
Only you can decide. Do your research and make the choice
@@PavSZ Thanks. 🙏
I’m sure someone has asked, but are these decent for APS-C cameras? I’m still using a ZV-E10 with hopes of upgrading to FX30
Yes but obviously you are going to get tighter field of view
This should be a 5 set lens right? could you give an update for the other 2 lens? nice vid!
I don't know when they are coming out
they just updated the list, now it's a set of 6 lens,haha@@PavSZ
Do they have optical image stabilization? 🙂
no
Will they fit on the new Sony ZV-E1 ?
Sony has got only one mount. Sony-E. All Sony E-mount lenses fit on all current Sony cameras
Does it fit for lumex bgh1?
no
Hlw sir,this is good for Indian wedding cinematography, mainly night indian light ???
most likely, yes
I’m having trouble finding where I can buy these lenses
oh no. there might be shortage right now
Sir which lens better...singma 85mm 1.4 yeah samyang 75mm 1.9 cine lens....plz recommend
better for what?
For shooting portraits of kids in the park, Sigma for sure. For filming interviews to get shallow depth of field, gears for manual focusing with a follow focus system and a tally lamp light in front of the lens, Samyang
Samayang 24 1.8 or the V-AF 24mm. ??
Whatever is right for you.
This is a question that only you can answer. You need to ask yourself what you are going to use it for, what's your budget. What features are more important to you. What camera you are going to use it on is going to be important, as well as level of your experience
On which Sony camera model did you mount it? thanks
on a7IV and a7sIII
@@PavSZ Thank you very much! I was asking because I'm trying to figure out if it works well with Sony a 7sii which has always not had much built-in auto focus and I wouldn't want to make an unnecessary purchase
@@martici5082 yes, they will only work as well as a7sII will allow them. OK but not amazing unfortunately
I have all 3 and they are really nice, but I wish that the tally lights could be turned off if desired. IMO this was a big design oversight. There are plenty of times where a light coming from your camera could interfere or when you don't want to announce that you're filming. Maybe they could make turning them off available via the firmware dock?
you can turn them off via the lens dock
@@PavSZ That’s great! Thanks for letting me know! When I contacted Rokinon about it, they said that they couldn’t be turned off.
I wonder if they'll release a 17 or 18mm?
18
@@PavSZ that's great to hear. Any idea when it will be released?
One's please check the weather proof or not 😊
they are wether proof
Are they Full Frame?
yes!
Samyang, please release this in Z mount! Otherwise I'll have to adapt these to my Z9
I'm sure they would if Nikon let them
@@PavSZ viltrox didn't get official permission so I don't think Nikon would go after them
Manual focusing is good right?
it is ok
these arent full frame right ??
they certainly are full frame lenses
@@PavSZ oh wow seriously !! thats great .. thanks for the reply ,. great channel...
T is for TONEH
I wish I understood this
@@PavSZ Maybe @cameraconspiracies could elaborate? haha
If these are anything like their 1.8 primes then I wouldn't recommend them to anyone using it for the FX6 as non of those work (AF wise) on that body. And worst Samyang has been silent on any firmware to address the issues.
As far as I know these work on FX6 and there have been already 2 major firmware updates since these lenses came out last year.
They all worked flawlessly on a7sIII for me
@@PavSZ Yes these lenses still work perfectly on my A7S3 bodies, just something about the FX6 that don't play well with my Samyang lenses
How can you NOT recommend a product when you have not tested it personally and for ONE specific type of camera?
@@Samiam-mu5ln I don't think that anyone can test a lens on every type of camera for a review. I have recommended these lenses in my video and I have tested them on a7IV and a7sIII
After the disaster of the previous samyang lenses, my trust in them is less than zero.
I had some really, really bad Sigmas in the past ... like 12-15 years ago
@@PavSZ yea, but the samyangs have been consistently bad and have a reputation as such. I bought four back in the hype as a set and only one still functions, but is still broken. We're not even talking years of use, it's months.
I need to buy these lenses for my project.
They are good
