@@DustinArmstrongPro Something about this comment felt backhanded, and I just wanted you come in and let you know that while I definitely see the GFXACE influence, you absolutely added your own creative spin to the video and nailed it. I love how you started otherworldly and ended with reeling it back in to something that felt close and human. Keep it up man, I see the vision.
Appreciate it🙏. I actually only recently discovered GxAce. He makes great stuff and watching it made me realize I have to do some kind of shift in order to stand out more. We're in an experimental phase of the channel so you might see influence from a lot of creators. There's some cool things in the works though as well is all I'll say...
Because of you and this video I purchased the 58mm!!! I am crazy for these lenses!! I'm trying to sneak in the 31mm without my wife seeing the cart on my Amazon page. I showed a friend the footage i shot on my camera and he thought it was Arri. Thanks for the video my friend. Gonna do a stealth purchase on the 31mm. Fingers crossed.
Beautifully made video. I'm in the market but need something 14mm / 18mm / 25mm - do you know if they are bring out wider angle lenses? Again, well done on the production of the video - I have the S5iix but no lenses other than the kit lens which is average at best.
Usually i hear halation in reference to the red glow on film. In this context, are you referring to the bloom around the light sources? Would you say its similar to using a black mist filter on a clean lens?
Hello Dustin!🙌🏿 I have a question, between the 7artisans and the dulens, which one would you choose for wedding videos? Thank you very much for your attention and response.
Beautiful lens but OMG that Bronco!! My 85 yr old dad would kill for that!!! He has wanted one since they came out brand new only he couldn't justify the price!🤣If he only knew then.... Thanks for the great video and the memory Dustin!!
Solid work Dustin. Question, can I use these with my GH6? excellent review man. How do you think they compare to the Meike Cinema lens, Laowa Nanomorph, or the SLR, or the other budget cinematic lens
I'm not sure. If there's an adapter that exists to pl mount from m 4/3 then yes but I'm not sure there is? Never looked in to it. Personally I like these better. I also have the Athenas (review coming soon) and I prefer these for the weight
What PL to L mount adapter do you use? I’ve heard some have issues with the S5ii and these lenses as well as generally being loose fitting or poorly built. I’d love to hear your thoughts on your current choice of adapter.
Hey Dustin, Question...I heard that these DULENS might be hard to fit a follow focus system. Why do you think? Do you think they are too small? Which follow focus system do you use?
@@DustinArmstrongPro I heard from another reviews that because of it's size that it was an issue. If you have a chance, that might be a good topic for content and a video. Dulen's Cine lens on a gimbal with a wireless or regular follow focus.
If you watch this video at this part th-cam.com/video/nDvH2rGEgQU/w-d-xo.htmlsi=DL-G2YPYbGVHIwRZ&t=360 I used the Dulens on the RS2 with a follow focus no problem. There's also a video coming soon where I compare them to the Athena's and used them in a film production environment and same thing, no issues with the follow focus. With those two I think it's fairly covered and more than likely won't do a dedicated video
@@DustinArmstrongPro Solid... That is really a blessing because there are other YT's putting things out there that are not true. Fact that you used this setup with no issues keeps it 💯. Can't wait to see the comparison. I am in China and will buy a set to use on a short Documentary I am doing in Shanghai. Keep up the good content. We are rockin' with you here.BTW - which Follow focus did you use?
Best unboxing ever. Reminded me of the monolith scene on the film; '2001: A Space Odyssey.' And life on planet earth was about to change forever. Awesome.
The flare remind me of takumar 55mm Cool characther. Always having this halation on is a lot. but I do like it. The price is amaizing for a set like this. your video is great of course as always.
Someone said that in the comments. I'm going to have to look into that now. Yeah if you like a very subtle bit of halation, they are amazing lenses. The price too is very reasonable. Thanks for watching!
@@DustinArmstrongPro Nice! I'll look out for that! Hopefully, the "algorithm" won't flood me with stupid "Darwin Contingent" / People doing stupid shit videos - and I won't miss it! 😛 (My little son used to share my account, and now my account is tweaked toward grade-school mentality crap!) Hahahahaha.... (.errrr that's my excuse and I'm stickin' with it! *wink*)
GFXACE has shifted the whole content creator thing
Maybe one day our realities will align......

Hey man - on the reveal out of the box and the go to black with voiceover only... got chills. Thanks for the experience man. Be well.
Appreciate you watching🙏
I am watching this multiple times its feel like a story in a movie not a lens review super👏👏👏👏👌👌
🙏🙏🙏

Your secret is safe with me🤫
What a beautiful film. You made my day and you sold me on the lenses in the first frame :)
Thank you! Haha glad you enjoyed it!
you deserve an oscar for this! love the cinematography def the best way to feature these lenses
Thanks man! More like these to come!

Thank you! You can pre order a 21mm now
Framing at 5:27 is awesome👌👌
🙏🙏🙏
Hey awesome! Great work. Did you have a filter or anything in front of the lens...? That ghosting at 6:32 and 7:09 is slightly concerning..
No filter or anything. That ghosting came after export didn't notice until now. Not sure why
@@DustinArmstrongPro thanks so much for the response! Hmmm interesting... Maybe just that vintage style coating in certain situations 🤷♂
Usually i hear halation in reference to the red glow on film. In this context, are you referring to the bloom around the light sources? Would you say its similar to using a black mist filter on a clean lens?
To me yes almost feels like a 1/8 mist filter without losing any sharpness, but still feeling less digital? Hard to explain lol
Hello Dustin!🙌🏿
I have a question, between the 7artisans and the dulens, which one would you choose for wedding videos?
Thank you very much for your attention and response.
Definitely Dulens for the character. I don't think 7artisans will have much character. But I'm sure they're still good if you want to go that route
@@DustinArmstrongPro thank you very much for your answer!!🙏🏿🙏🏿
Had to subscribe after watching this awesome video. Thank you!
No thank you for watching🙏
Bro… these product shots are wild!
Thanks! I think they turned out pretty cool too
so good! where did you shoot this? looks magical.
The intro was shot at the salt flats in Utah. The entire video is in Utah
Great review, congrats!!! What brand of PL-L mount adapter did you use in this video?
Thanks! This was the meike version. I also own the Sigma
thanks for video. what is your rear cap? Thanks! original one is too loose
Beautiful presentation. Subbing. Thanks for the link. Definitely going to look into these.
Thank you! Definitely take a look. I think they may have some new ones coming soon👀
What have you heard??
Dustin bro it is such a great work!
Thank you! I gotta order that 21mm soon...
@@DustinArmstrongPro 😃，I finally have some time to editing my website and add your wonderful work on my new blog👍
@@DULENSHK Let's go! I appreciate that!
I want these lenses even more now! Hope a wider length comes out soon.
Hopefully next year they add a 21mm. I think that's what I heard last
@@DustinArmstrongPro That would be amazing, I'd probably go for that and the 43mm
The 55mm f1.8 Super-Takumar flares with a rainbow loop exactly like that, and it goes away when you stop down to f2.
Don't tell me this or I'll buy it
Beautiful lens but OMG that Bronco!! My 85 yr old dad would kill for that!!! He has wanted one since they came out brand new only he couldn't justify the price!🤣If he only knew then.... Thanks for the great video and the memory Dustin!!
No problem. Appreciate you watching! That bronco is actually for sale sooooooooo might be the time to grab it... haha.

@@DustinArmstrongPro The Dulens lens come in EF Mount too. So I think we could use the Viltrox or the Metabones speed booster
Oh yeah yeah I forgot about EF. You could definitely go that route
These look great. I just bought the SLR Magic APO Microprimes for EF. How do you like them?
I love them. They're my first set of cine lenses I've bought
I missed the salt flats! I drove 13 hours from LA to the salt flats in 2019!
They're pretty cool
Please do a review of the new 7A Hope S35 budget Cine Lenses.
What PL to L mount adapter do you use? I’ve heard some have issues with the S5ii and these lenses as well as generally being loose fitting or poorly built. I’d love to hear your thoughts on your current choice of adapter.
Watch my video comparing L Mount to PL adapters
Hi Dustin. Forgot to ask you. You used these lens on which camera? Lumix?or? Also, which apapter did you use to fit the lens. Thanks.
Shhhh! Dan, what are you doing telling everyone about Dulens? I haven’t bought them yet and I don’t want to miss out!
I'll tell Dan to quit telling people about Dulens
Thanks, Dustin! I gotta proof my comments before I post them…
beautifully done video!
🙏
Do you think they are a bit too sharp and make the image look flat?
I don't think so no. Also could be my camera making the image more sharp.
Hey Dustin,
Question...I heard that these DULENS might be hard to fit a follow focus system. Why do you think? Do you think they are too small? Which follow focus system do you use?
With all the gear that's available these days I don't see why it would be any harder or less hard than any other cine lenses

Glad you enjoyed! I'll have to watch that. Maybe will give me some inspiration for future stuff
Wonderfull! Maybe to dark for an s35 sensor?
The flare remind me of takumar 55mm
Cool characther. Always having this halation on is a lot. but I do like it.
The price is amaizing for a set like this.

Beautifully done, hats off! I've been eyeing the Dulens APOs for a while, very tempted. Yeah, apparently a 21 and 105 are in the pipeline.
Thank you🙏 can't wait for that 21mm to be released👀
@@DustinArmstrongPro I bet. I have the 21mm Vespid, it’s a great focal length.
Awesome stuff, and story telling
Thank you🙏
Are you still using these lenses? Are these the best lightweight cine lenses you have tested? Cheers!
Yep I have the 21mm now and I love them. One of the best in my opinion!
I was waiting for them to release the L-mount version.
Are they doing that? I thought he was just doing EF and PL
I thought I wasn’t supposed to be served ads since I pay for yt premium 😂
The video is too powerful
Omg! The tree @7:10 blew my mind! How do you rank these against DZO Vespid, Nisi Athena ? Cool ending!
Haven't used the Vespid so not sure. The Athenas I'm actually doing a comparison video this month against the Dulens
@@DustinArmstrongPro Nice! I'll look out for that!
Hopefully, the "algorithm" won't flood me with stupid "Darwin Contingent" / People doing stupid shit videos - and I won't miss it! 😛

(.errrr that's my excuse and I'm stickin' with it! *wink*)
Does your sigma adatper work with these? I heard that it does not.
It will if you unscrew the black inside piece of the lens. Really dumb you have to do that but better than nothing
damn, great promo for Dulens
They deserve it. Not much content of them out there
You made me want them!
I love em
The Intro is ❤🔥
Thank you🙏
Are they sponsoring this video?
Nope. I paid out of my own pocket for the kit and made the video myself
Any giveaways?
Haha idk maybe one day
The internet has found them. Its just very hard to get them anywhere.
I mean it's kind of the same
Kinda, now that you said it I see it 😂
beautiful content.
Thank you!
Yo how you end up with the hottest ride on the internet??
Beautiful work.
I got connections🤫
Nice!
Your editing is on point, but putting interstellar music in the background does nothing for the visuals. They should stand out on their own.
