Bro !!!! This is literally the best anamorphic film I've ever seen !!! You have a confusing great talent which it caused that every movie you upload is madly better than the last one! Goat
thanks a lot, man. actually there's no crew at all, its just me and my girl as the main subject. Anamorphic lenses are hard to make, but damn, they are worth the effort!
Ermia Ramez my guy!! I have been literally scouring the internet for content like this. This is the best demonstration and review of a lens I have ever seen! I appreciate all the work and effort that goes into this video. Please keep up the great work! I'll look forward to more!
I don’t think Sirui has much contribution in this. It’s your immense talent in lighting,filming and colour grading which brought this outstanding quality. I’m sure that you’ll come up with the same quality stuff even with an iPhone 15 Pro Max. Cheers!! ❤
Dude, you are such a huge Inspiration! This is an amazing short film, playing so so far up in the game!! I mostly do boring Corporate stuff an kind of loose creativity and motivation to create but give me such a will to be more creative and this is such a huge source for inspiration! Thank you!
Excellent work !!! I'm struggling to find a reliable tutorial on the internet about the settings to make on your A7IV before starting to shoot in anamorphic. Could you briefly tell me the settings you make on your camera to film correctly with your 1.6 anamorphic lens?
@@philippeborgne5546 thanks bud! I shot everything at 24fps, Iso 800 in Slog3 Sgamut 3Cine picture profile, XAVCS-I 10bit 4:2:2 codec. In case of accurate preview of your footage with proper desqueeze, I used an external monitor that have 1.6x desqueeze, but Fx3 now offers in camera desqueeze I guess, you can search it on TH-cam.
OMG The best commercial video! Beautiful girl and icredible atmosphere! Nice voiceover. Very much liked the presentation of the material. I would like to see a science fiction movie in this style! You guys are awesome!
Hey mate, your film is absolutely stunning! I've been creating 3D short films for a while and am now eager to start shooting live-action. I've been researching this lens for some time and watched thousands of videos made with it, but your film blew my mind. My conclusion is that while the lens is fantastic, your talent in lighting and color grading takes it to another level. Would you mind sharing your post-process? Thanks, and amazing work!
Yes, you have listed several films that used lenses with this focal length. However, many Hollywood movies were shot with a camera that has a super 35 sensor, which means that they had to use a lens with a different focal length to get a similar look. I want to say that this is an excellent lens, but the look of a Hollywood movies can be achieved with other lenses, and of course it is an advantage if they are anamorphic.
Thanks for watching, bud. I think the three films I mentioned ( 1917, The Witch, and Call me by Your Name ) were shot on full frame cameras with 35mm lenses.
Hi Ermia! Came across this video, it is awesome! Love the shots specially the colors. Do you mind sharing what picture profile settings you used and luts?pls?Thanks Ermia!
Very beautiful. I would love to know how you have build your rig and how you do focus. I assume you don't have a dedicated focus puller as an assistance.
Beautifully shot, edited and graded. I have the same combination, A7IV and the 35 saturn. I get a lot of screen wobble in the edges handheld. How do you deal with this?
Great review! this lens is a most have! I also have to tell you that the rolling shutter of the sony a7IV is very notorious but apart from that, the composition of the shots and color correction are really nice!
I have the same dslr A7IV but didn't know it can capture so great shots. Thanks for the motivation. Can you please suggest some budget lens to get great cinematic shots with Sony A7IV. ? Lots of love from India. Happy to subscribe your channel.
no, actually i never tried Nightwalker series, but they are completely diffrent. nightwalkers are spherical cinema lenses for APS-C sensors, but Venus and Saturn series are anamorphic lenses for FULL FRAME sensors. Their greatest advantage over these anamorphic lenses is their speed, T1.2 is excellent for low light conditions. T2.9 is not that great
Im super excited about this movie cause I can clearly see the super magnificent difference in the quality and visual beauty , you're the most talented person I know and super proud of you❤
Loved this video. I am researching on cameras and lenses for a carrier. This video shows there is still hope for common people to aspire to become a videographer of International level.
how did you setup the room to look like it has volume in the air? another question, in case maybe you know the answer: how do we get or what do you call those dust mites effect we see on the lens floating in the air? as seen on professional films to add layers to the videos
Great work Ermia, the lighting of every shot is consistent with the mood of the narrative. Brilliant handheld work as well, considering that it is manual focus. Can you please mention how you handled focus challenges on your own. Also, did you shoot this on Slog3?
so happy to hear that, bud. thanks for watching. manual focusing was the hardest part ( since i never done this before ) , i just tried to keep my distence the same with the subject all the time. and yeah, i shot the whole thing on Slog3 Sgamut3 Cine
Great job🔥 ! Very nice lighting! Did you shoot handheld ? I am hesitating to buy the Saturn Lenses for my A7iv but afraid of IBIS not being enough to handle anamorphic footage. Did you experience jerky results when shooting handheld ?
Thanks bud! I shot the entire video handheld, except one or two scenes in the jungle. It’s definitely harder for IBIS to stabilize anamorphic lenses, but i used Actavie Stabilizer on A7IV and it was enough for 80% of the times.
Damn man, watching this video and your work in general gives me a lot of inspiration, you're amazing! I haven’t seen all of your videos yet, but it’s great that I still have a few left in my watchlist to enjoy aesthetically
I cant help but to subscribe! Amazing shots man. If I may ask what timeline settings and aspect ratio you use together with the desqueeze ratios? Thank you! more of these please!
Man I have been loving your videos since I found your channel! you can make any camera look good. How can I learn to shoot, edit, and sound design like you though??
Hey man nice work. I know this is an older video but if you have time for two questions. What did you use for stabalization? And do you employ the camera's internal stabilaztion with this lens? I have this lens with an A7s3 and i get a wobbling image when i move the camera. Thanks! Great work!
Cinematic aspect ratio is around 2.35:1 to 2.40:1. On A7iv or any camera that records video in 16:9 you will get superwide 2.84:1 aspect ratio. I am sure you chopped off the sides of the footage & yet the footage is somewhere around 2.55:1 - still very wide. 1.6x anamorphic lens requires 3:2 recording (available in some cameras that allow open gate recording & have 3:2 sensor) 1.6*3/2 = 2.40:1 On camera's like A7iv the best you can go for an anamorphic is 1.33x 1.33*16/9 = 2.36:1 (close enough to 2.35:1)
you’re right, i mentioned that fact about my camera on the video as well. but 95% of consumer cameras dont have open gate 3:2 option. i think Panasonic S5II and Fuji XH2S are the only ones. i zoomed my videos 1.150x to fit the 2.39.1 ratio, but even the original ratio after desqueez is not very weird to use, its around 2.79:1, and we have feature films shot entirly on this aspect ratio, like Hateful Eight. but ofcruse it would be a lot more pleasing to shot 3:2 with these 1.6 , 1.8 & 2 x anamorphics.
thanks for watching, bud! its just the weight and size, Saturns are 60% lighter and smaller. they also have two diffrent kind flares, but Venus lenses only produce blue flares.
I really like the type of contents that you are making and I really enjoy every second of them I can prospect what will happen in your life in short and long time and I see nothing except beauty and success
I found Go Hard. I mean the music at 01:16 of this video when the heroine starts running. If it bothers you, I’m sorry. I heard it in this video（star02:17）: th-cam.com/video/rzSm3R2aBIo/w-d-xo.html
Forgive me for being Chinese and not speaking good English😂. I use Google Translate to talk to you. Thank you again brother, I will always pay attention to you and support you@@ermiaramez976
question, what if I use the ASPC version of the lense with my Sony A74, which is the Sirui Super 35mm F1.8..will it be much different? or just stick to the full frame version instead? thank you!
@@ermiaramez976brother i wanted to ask i just got fx3 today and i want to buy anamorphic glass which one is the best jupiter or venus could you give me suggestion ?
How would you compare the full frame image from your a74 and the image from a super 35 sensor ? Would you need a wider lens to achieve this look as it is different to 1917 ?
Bro !!!! This is literally the best anamorphic film I've ever seen !!! You have a confusing great talent which it caused that every movie you upload is madly better than the last one! Goat
just made my day with this cm, man. thank you so much for watching
I agree. This 2 minutes long short film is amazing. It actually explains my bipolar disorder better than me and anyone can explain.
This is fucking unreal. Or too real. Omg I finally know what equipment to get. Hope to be as good as you one day. Phenomenal
Amazing Cinema Look. Not to sharp, but exact how a classic Film will be☺️ Great Lens
What goat means
You and GX ace are up there as some of the best on TH-cam in my opinion. Amazing work sir
thanks a lot, bud
Your reviews mixed with cinematic visuals are just on another level.
oh man, I have been watching the wrong youtube channels. What a video. Goosebumps.
Ermia! You did it again! Watching your tests is as exciting as any film.
Your demo reel must be amazing. All the best, my friend!
Working with anamorphic is a real hard deal , i should say im flattered by the quality of Frames and lighting , good job to you and your crew⚡️
thanks a lot, man. actually there's no crew at all, its just me and my girl as the main subject.
Anamorphic lenses are hard to make, but damn, they are worth the effort!
Do you think the SIGMA vs Sony lens matter? Also in what shots did you use the Sigma 16mm?
Absolutely blown away. THIS is the cinematic look everyone is always talking about. Incredible work.
In what shots did you use the Sigma 16mm 1.4?
This is nothing short of amazing!! how are you not the most followed mirrorless cinematographer on youtube...

Yep, 1917 was shot on the Alexa Mini LF and 35mm and 40mm lenses@@ermiaramez976
35mm just isn’t wide enough for Super35 sensors. I wish they can make a 16mm one 😢
This 35mm is for full frame sensor though.@@loremipsumproductivityengi7552
Yeah I know, the crop factor of super 35 sensor makes any 35mm lens a 50mm equivalent. But I really prefer the wider fov
I’m blown away by how much effort you put into these videos 🔥

IBIS is a little bit weird with anamorphic lenses, I just turned off the Active Stabilizer for a bit better performance.
always blown away by your imagery, you are an outstanding cinematographer
Nicee! Did you use Active Steady mode or standart Steady Ibis at A7iv in this work?
Uh.. she puts a cassette tape into a cassette player and then listens to it with wireless headphones? That isn't how the 90s worked lol
Man this is super cinematic ,,, love you style !!! just amazing !!!!!!!

Great review! this lens is a most have! I also have to tell you that the rolling shutter of the sony a7IV is very notorious but apart from that, the composition of the shots and color correction are really nice!

How did you light the scene with her in the room? And what kind of haze did you use if you don't mind me asking!
In the room i used Forza60B with a SoftBox for the key. and in case of haze, Its just a normal haze machine
@@ermiaramez976 thanks so much!!
@@jayjayjaythebrand Anytime
GREAT SHOTS. Question: Did you use haze of fog for the beginning sequence with the girl in the room?
thanks! and YES, A LOT!
@@ermiaramez976what did you use for the haze/fog? Love the atmosphere.
Why such low shutter angle? For post stabilization?
Also, lots of jello. Is this A7iv?
exactly for post stabilization,
and its because of very bad rolling shutter of a7iv
Lighting & Grading on point, some shots look Amazon Prime worthy.

amazing
anyone recommend me similar youtubers like this, i'm bored of simple talking head style reviewing
what is the opinion on the Laowa nanomorphic lenses in comparison? They are 300 USD cheaper

wow awesome shoots
Do you get a wobble effect using anamorphics. Do you have ibis on or off with it
@@isaacalgutria i got the wobble effect a lot with a7iv, but I used Ibis as well
Ive been hearing people get different results. It keeps me away from getting one. Especially since I like to shoot handheld with ibis on
good work remind me of a piece i shot like 3 years ago
you're a genius
How would you compare the full frame image from your a74 and the image from a super 35 sensor ? Would you need a wider lens to achieve this look as it is different to 1917 ?
Great video! Are you using the Saturn or the Venus siruis lens?
im using Saturn lenses becuase of their light weight
