I would never imagine a camera shop would make so many cool videos that are not trying to sell us their cameras in stock, but actual footage for comparasion, cool scientific data and constructive critics. thanks CVP, u guys are years ahead of B&H

@alfredpoopykins8264 6 ай бұрын

This was one of the best camera videos I’ve ever seen. Please make more like this with different setups from different films. Maybe do one for each of the Best Cinematography noms.

@DynamicPhil84 6 ай бұрын

Very cool video! I like this more "film analysis" approach compared to the gear review/comparison videos on the channel, so definitely consider making more of these! Diving into the looks of specific films, the director or cinematographer's vision, lens choices, lighting setups, all of this is really engaging and information any creative filmmaker would be interested in watching.

This was excellent. You guys are putting so much effort into videos like this and its very appreciated. I'm in the States but I did buy a cable from you once that only you had. You guys set the standard in retailers that put out amazing information, I wish you had a branch in Burbank or Hollywood.

Really good Fincher/Messerschmidt/Leitz bit. Liked the references/bibliography, so I'm able to read the whole article and glean additionally from the CVP take. In the 80's Leitz Canada produced cine lenses for Panavison, far and away nicer than the Panas we'd use otherwise. As I had an M5 still camera and 4 lens at the time, I knew and loved the look. That was then, now new computer lens design coupled with designer wisdom is producing fantastic lenses. None quite as complete a group as the Leitz. And yes the Red colour, resolution, and compression offer considerable advantages for indy filmmakers. Thanks for your best piece yet.

I bought komodo x. (havent received yet.) I have Leica M mount Voigtlander lenses (not leica 😐) . I am planning to use such combination for my documentary project. I am a little anxious actually. I am happy to know that similar combination is used and liked. well, it is not a common approach at the end.

@7thHill112 6 ай бұрын

@@ilkercelik_com I primarily shoot documentary and I use the Komodo and a few Leica R lenses - my absolute favorite combination, I've been wanting to try the M as well. Once you get used to the traffic lights exposing system you'll never want to go back, perfect on the fly way of nailing exposure - great for documentary. ELQ can get a little crazy with the data rates for long form doc shooting, so that's my only gripe - I would love the option of an h.264/h.265 codec. But you'll be blown away by the image if you can color grade even halfway decently

@raksh9 6 ай бұрын

Voigtlander lenses are superb, especially the more recent versions like the Nokton 35mm f1.2 III, 50mm APO, etc. They perform very close to Leica at a fraction of the price.

Really appreciate this sort of insight video, which probably you are uniquely placed to both conceive of (given your industry contacts and experience) and execute - it's a smart way for you to differentiate from the competition on KZfaq. I also appreciate the effort that must go in to this. One request: maybe go a level deeper into the sources referenced, and summarise what else is there (ie topics covered): even just a word summary on screen of topics would be great, and not require too much additional work on your part. Many of us are hungry for quality sources of insight, but would appreciate that little nudge in the right direction, via signposting what further there is to learn from a reference you make. I'll definitely watch more of this sort of content in future.

Really liked your new approach here with a bit of creativity and it didn't go on for too long, so we still got plenty of content about the lenses in particular. It did come across as a bit of a plug for that film - I personally felt that the lens flares and blurred highlights added in post were off-putting and I've heard other, similar comments about how this film was done. It would be nice to leave it up to the viewer what we think of these techniques and maybe show other examples of how these lenses have been used, so get a broader idea of hat they look like. Overall really nice to go over some older equipment and not just focus on the latest thing that's out.

I will be purchasing a Komodo X in the next two weeks and I was wondering what lens would best fit my rig for what I’m using it for It will be running as a live stream roaming camera on Sundays and a main wedding film camera during Saturdays I was considering a Canon RF 35mm lens for overall use but was wondering if there’s a better option to consider as this is my first cinema camera

Great analysis/discussion... Lenses/lighting/camera blocking and framing are much more important than the camera sensor nowadays IMHO - every modern sensor has more than enough DR and even resolution (except for heavy cropping where the 8K is still useful) to make the differences unimportant for real world use.

0:31 Not a shot at you guys personally but it's interesting how difficult it is to actually make something look like a real 'movie'. Despite having top end camera and lens your recreation still looks like something that is very indie compared to an actual higher end movie like The Killer. Its almost too sharp and looks like video which is typically what I noticed when I see recreations of movies on KZfaq. Obviously you don't have the same lighting crew and post production budget ect but just pointing out how difficult it is to make a movie look like a movie.

Nolan would have done way better movies after interstellar if he just embrace the way fincher is using cgi/vfx instead of only blowing milions saying " NO CGI" ."

Tbh the thing holding Nolan's movies back since interstellar has mostly been the writing. His recent stuff has all looked excellent and it's not like he's being strangled by his budget. That being said, Tenet, Dunkirk, and to a lesser extent Oppenheimer have not quite had as strong an emotional pull as Interstellar did (in some scenes in particular!), and that's a matter of screenplay moreso than VFX budget allocation.
