  • In my neverending quest for the perfect lens, I found my way to the good folks at V35 Project and Northwest Camera Co. They're doing some really interesting and amazing things, and it has been a pleasure to meet them and play with their wares. They've got a really nice point of view, and I've really loved watching the evolution of this line. Check them out at www.v35project.com and nw-camera.com/ and / @northwestcameraco

    This is interesting. I am still learning about the nuances about lenses and their impact on cinematic images. I hear terms such the "Cooke Loo"k and the Panavision series. It is hard for me to separate lenses from camera bodies and the impact of the post production process (color grading).

      John this is a great comment. The BEST thing you can do is exactly what you just did, which is to admit when concepts or claims are unclear. There's a LOT of information out there - some of it is true, some is false. There are lots of opinions masquerading as facts. I have another video coming out in the next couple days, almost precisely about this idea. Something along the lines of "The 'Cooke Look' - is it real or just hype?" and all that entails.
      My advice is to try to ingest as much information as you can. Find sources who can explain things clearly and without "hand-waving." If something can't be described in plain language as if to a young person, question its authenticity. Don't be afraid to disagree with someone, even if they have a great reputation, or a lot of charisma, or a massive following. At the end of the day this is an art form, and if something helps you make art that you love, that's all that matters. But as a highly technical art form, these concepts do matter, and therefore careful time and consideration are worth the effort.

      Lighting probably has more of an effect on why you like an image vs all of the stuff you mentioned.

      @@andrewching1808 that is true! Lighting is more important than ANYTHING else in the chain. #1 is lighting, a distant #2 is lenses, and camera is #3. Buuuuut, even more important than all of those is the skill and technique of the photographer. A talented artist can make beautiful work with any tools. But having technical understanding of those tools is really important (in my opinion), and helpful to developing one's skill and technique.

      Hey Travis! I did stop by once but you weren’t there yet, and then other times it was too busy. Yes I love your products. I have the DFM and the side ribs as well. Shoot me an email - nick@fzerocamera.com - I’d love to talk shop.
