Choose Your Own Adventure | BLAZAR NERO 1.5x Anamorphic Adapter | Review
Рет қаралды 23,592
Күн бұрынI've spent the last month getting better acquainted with the little BLAZAR NERO 1.5x Anamorphic Adapter, shooting on the RED Komodo and Panasonic LUMIX S1. I experimented with a range of taking lenses including vintage lenses such as the Helios 44-2 58mm to modern lenses with the likes of TTArtisans.
Is it any good? Is it easy to use? Should you consider this over other anamorphic adapters like the Aivascope? Watch the vid to find out!

Would you still consider this as a viable / workable option (not for work, just hobby)? I don't really like the 1.33x / 1.25x look of the other options that much... Worth it or not? Thanks!

FINALLY someone that can do a review and actually provide some quality, beautiful footage with a product. Automatically 10/10 review to me just for that alone. Also for people like me that do a bunch of smaller budget creative stuff(music videos), the BLAZER seems like an awesome value and I honestly like the look better better that the Sirui/Laowa budget options. I've owned an aivascope 1.75x and although the image was amazing, like you mentioned it's just WAAAY too fidgety for someone that does a lot of hand-held shots and energetic camera movements. I feel like people that are ride or die with an Aivascope just keep there cameras on a tripod and if that's your gameplan then more power to you. Did they mentioned anything to you about possibly doing variations of the coating for different flares or is blue flares the permanent option we're stuck with?
@EdProsser Жыл бұрын
I think for me, doing reviews is about showing what you do with the gear (and having fun!) rather than regurgitating a spec sheet or press release - also I know there are already a tonne of fantastic technical reviewers out there who will cover that stuff. I think from an ease of use perspective this is a solid option. Although I'd love an Aivascope, I just can't justify the price and I know from experience if something is too fiddly to use, it tends to get left at home a lot. I think from what I understand it's blue flares for now - but they're listening to feedback as people seem keen on an amber version, I wouldn't hold my breath on it though ... But I'm just speculating.

@@EdProsser I suppose that ultimately the success of the product will determine how many batches they make and if there will be any future variations..

I’ve recently got myself the Nero adapter, and it’s really my first proper dive into the world of anamorphics. The first thing I have noticed is that focussing has become much trickier to nail. I can zoom in to check critical focus on a static subject, but on a moving subject, or if I want to pull focus from one point to another, the usually reliable focus peaking seems to outline everything in the frame! Any suggestions on how to improve accuracy?
@EdProsser 7 ай бұрын
Yeah that's common with most Anamorphics because if you're working in camera it's usually applying focus peaking to the squeezed image. A good external monitor is usually your best bet as this will give you a larger image to preview and pull focus with and it may have a better peaking mode.

Hey great review! I bought one of these largely based on this video. Took it for a first spin this weekend. I get heavy vignetting using a Nikon AIS 35mm with Red Komodo. Am I doing something wrong? Vignetting goes away once swapped to the Nikon AIS 50mm, but was hoping to use a wider taking lens, particularly when on Super 35. Any help or tips on best settings on Komodo would be great! The 50 also vignetted heavily on my FX3, which I was less surprised about given it’s full frame. However, Blazer do say the starting limit is 28mm on S35 and 50mm on full frame, so not sure why I’m getting so much vignette on these two lenses?

I'm an Aivascope user both 1.5 and 1.75 but ordered the Nero for its low weight. Viewing your Komodo footage makes me want to order the new Komodo-X. I've had it with rolling shutter. I've been impressed with GreatJoy's past anamorphics compared to the other recent budget offerings so looking forward to testing the Nero. Your footage looks beautiful. Here's some of my recent Aivascope 1.5 footage in comparison. Such great optics but as you said, 3X the price and almost twice the weight. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/hNKYa8qJpteWqac.html

Beautiful footage! I'd still love an Aivascope!

Hi Alan, as you are the real Aivascope user, after you watched this video, do you think this adapter is qualified for a light commercial or short film products? I have a 13 blades helio 44 and Mir 37 f2.8 .

Looks great but the swimming distortion is too much

It's because it's paired with the helios lens
