Beautiful! So many parents look forward to their kids growing up, so that they can “do more stuff”, but they grow up so so quickly. Cherish the moments with a small baby ❤️
Wow, this is pretty much an awesome commercial for Tito's mod lol I was on the fence about nodding my 50mm, but not anymore. This footage is #CinematographyGoals

Thank you for the kind words! So basically it’s a black oval insert placed behind the aperture to create more “anamorphic” bokeh. It requires opening the lens a couple groups to access the aperture. Check out the channel “anamorphic on a budget” he made a video specifically on modding the first round of Sirui lenses!
Check out the YT channel Anamorphic on a budget. Basically it's a 3D printed disk with an oval cut out that makes the out of focus areas appear more stretched, like a 2x anamorphic. You have to open the lens and put the disc right behind the aperture mechanism. You can do the same thing to non-anamorphic lenses. The Helios 44-2 is a popular lens to get this mod.
Wow, I really like your color grade, thank you for leaving it in the comment. I see people blowing the Fuji colors out with practically neon tones and it looks awful and electronic. This shows off the power of the color in Fuji cameras.
@@ZachTigue I got into Fuji with the XT-4 recently and I am absolutely in love with it. I'll be sticking to that line and look forward to what's to come.
Really awesome footage. That Eterna profile is amazing. I purchased the inserts and disassembled the lens but flew into a cloud of rocks when trying to remove the rear element. I have tried turning it to unscrew it ( I’m assuming that’s how it comes out ) to the point where I’m scratching the metal on the sides of the rear element housing. I’m wondering if Sirui is using some type of thread lock in it :/
I made a video doing exactly that if you check my channel. I need to see what happens with grain! Good suggestion I'll see what I can do later this week!
On the XT3 it was because exposing FLOG without the assist feature was hard and left a lot of room for error. On the XH2S flog and flog2 has been easier to expose for but if you want a quick turnaround Eterna is hard to beat
You don't lose DoF as far as I can tell. You will lose a half stop or full stop of light-gathering though. Bokeh looks like a 2x anamorphic would look, which is they whole goal of the insert. As they come stock, the Sirui doesn't have very strong anamorphic bokeh and this mod fixes that!

The amount of photos and videos I have with him are crazy!! Also adding a girl in August 😊
Congratulations ❤️
My compliments! Great footage. The X-t3 is a beast, but the quality you managed to squeeze out of it comes from experience.
That's the best compliment I've ever received! I really appreciate that. I still have a long way to go!
A mother's love. There is none such beauty greater than that.❤
Beautiful footage, 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
The XT3 still holds up in 2024
Absolutely!
It's amazing to think that this was filmed on a $1000 digital camera.
Indeed! While everyone is arguing which is best, mirrorless cameras these days are all capable of creating amazing images!
I'm watching this on a big screen TV and it's so good it should be illegal!
thank u thats exacly the feeling im looking for
Glad I could help!

Thanks for sharing man! Sold me on the bokeh insert.
My man! I love your content! Thanks for watching 👊
Muy bueno!
Gracias por comaprtir
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Phenomenal bro
Yo man! Thanks!
First of all, great footage! Kudos!
Second, a question: I have both XT-3 and Sirui 50. But what about 2x oval bokeh? Care to explain?
Thanks!

I’m about to get that sirui 50 for my XT3. It’s on sale on Amazon
I want to try this lens with my X-H2S
Yea I need to try it on mine as well!
great piece! if i may ask was the original footage captured in slow-motion or was it an editing after-touch??
Recording in 60 fps and slowed to 40% in post
Absolutely fantastic footage. Can you elaborate on the mod? Google isn't really getting me the answers. Much thanks in advance.

I really appreciate that! Fuji users are definitely underrepresented here on TH-cam but the quality you get for the price is INSANE

There's for sure threadlocker! I had to use pliers to get a good grip on it. Not for the faint of heart 😅
What about taking photos with that lens and camera? Anything weird when you de-squeaze, like If you apply grain?
I made a video doing exactly that if you check my channel. I need to see what happens with grain! Good suggestion I'll see what I can do later this week!
Have you found that that Eterna setting is better than Flog?
On the XT3 it was because exposing FLOG without the assist feature was hard and left a lot of room for error. On the XH2S flog and flog2 has been easier to expose for but if you want a quick turnaround Eterna is hard to beat
What frame rate? 60 played back at 24? Looks dope
That is correct!
I need some help, I'm on the fence, does this mod decrease or increase bokeh? What about aperature, do you lose any stops?
You don't lose DoF as far as I can tell. You will lose a half stop or full stop of light-gathering though. Bokeh looks like a 2x anamorphic would look, which is they whole goal of the insert. As they come stock, the Sirui doesn't have very strong anamorphic bokeh and this mod fixes that!
