I think the ring to switch between auto and manual focus is way better than having a little switch to toggle. I do not understand why you say you have no choice but to use manual focus? I find auto focus is pretty accurate. I find manual focus hard to do because it is hard to tell if the shot is in focus by looking through the view finder (since everything is compressed). I find if I use manual focus many of the shots are slightly out of focus. Auto focus never lets me down. The video was very well done and I like how you speak and what you have to say. And you are so young! Well done Aidin. Well done!
Keep doing what you're doing. You're already much better than 90% of the other vloggers/'content creators' out there. Great work and I'm about to click 'Buy' on the Ultra + Tokina right now. You answered my question with the Ultra vs XL with the Tokina. Much appreciated, sir! A note on the AF/MF ring; I actually kind of like it over a traditionally small AF/MF toggle. Usually those toggles are fairly small and when I'm looking through viewfinder/screen, I don't want to spend time finding where that freaking switch is. It's right there, all over the front of the lens. Can't miss it. The only downside that I've encountered is that sometimes I forget I'm in AF and when I attempt to rotate it I find it being, 'stuck'. But, at least I register that faster than wherever that small switch is on a lens body.
Hmmm.... I work woth a Sony A6500 and now I've got the 10-18 lens... It's slightly cheaper thsn your set-up but has only f/4. And it has a good autofocus and an in-lens stabilizer... I have been thinging a lot what lems to buy for vlogging and finally I decided for the 1ü-18. I didn't know at that time about this alternative you are showing today. (Ans I assume I would have been needing an adaptor for the Sony E-mount?)
Have you come across an inexpensive wireless mic setup? It's almost 2am, whatever trickery is being done to make the lens on the shelf is awesome. Is it a composite shot using a second camera? That's an awfully long reach to place the lens on what looks like a narrow shelf, and never look over there.
the Tokina lens is phenomenal for closed spaced like museums. You can stand just few steps away and captured a whole dinosaur in your frame and no flash is required! I'm also using it for group photography but I'm careful to place everyone in the centre of the frame to avoid distortions. I love this lens, very useful.
@Ivan: I bought my Tokina lens in used condition, so it came tested by the professional photographers of a photoshop I know (I live in the UK.) So I can focus to infinity but I'm planning to have all my lenses properly calibrated when I upgrade my Nikon D3200 to a more advanced model like D7000 that allows micro focusing in the settings. I'm planning to use either a program I found in the web for automatic calibration ('Reikan FoCal') or a cheaper option using a 'focus pyramid' for manual calibration. Sorry I do not have Speedbooster.
I’m looking for an affordable wide angle lens to pare with the GH5, keep in mind I also have the speed booster so my options do open up. Can anyone recommended a lens? I’d like it for Real Estate
Damn, thats still a lot money! Isn't the 7artisans 7.5mm F/2.8, that you had, a "pricier" choise? I mean it is full manual so there is no AF, but the tokinas AF isn't that good as you say, so, what would be your recommendation, all-in-all?
The af isn't the only difference, this lens is aspherical and better for low light + DOF among other differences. Since I'm using the speed booster with other lenses this was worth it for me
I use a sigma 10-20 in my g80...but it doesnt work well on a gimbal....i cant explain,but the background moves top fast....also when i move the câmera,it shows a black spot on the corner...its not a vignete...its ONLY whdnyit moves...did it ever happen to you?
Hey Aidin, I just got this lens and am wondering if you do use a tripod collar mount for this lens, when mounting on a tripod? Am concerned because as you mentioned in the video, the lens is quite heavy and I just don't want to risk stability and possible risky tilting forward motion for the lens and camera body. Thanks and take care in the meantime.
Always curious what you're using for your mic in all of these G7 vids... is it the built-in camera mic? It kind of sounds like it is, because of the nature sounds that blend in, with your outdoor vids, etc... Thanks, Aidin!
Hi! may i ask for your opinion, i just ordered the 7artisans 7.5mm for my gh4, and which do you think is better? this tokina 11-16mm or the 7 artisans 7.5mm? i am currently using my gh4 for videos and i have a viltrox speedbooster. thank you for you answer :)
What lens would you recommend for nature photography or just landscape that’s rather cheap for a budget... Just curious... I’ve taking my camera around everywhere I go but I typically just use my 50mm 1.8 and I’m wondering if it’s best or even good for landscape or nature shots... I want to build a portfolio and don’t actually have people to photograph so I’m thinking of just looking at nature and landscape. I’ve fallen in love with “light trails” so... I’m curious to a good landscape lens that maybe will work for nature/landscape plus possible “light trails” advice please and thank you.
Can you make a video where you compere the Metabones to something more affordable? I've been thinking of getting one for my panasonic g80 but 700€ doesn't really feel as a good idea to only get another 1000€ lens with it.
@@ivan90988ify you talking about the newest 11-16 ATX-i CF? it has completely new coating.. what exact ring did you remove? I watched the video from Christian Schmeer -th-cam.com/video/BNHmeXicsj4/w-d-xo.html
@@JanHubacek i have first version. This video dont help me. Ring is inside. You need dissasemble lens. I do it myself. I forgot how to do it. And forget there i found manual. But it wery easy.
Great video as usual mate. I dont know about the whole setup though, seems like an overpriced overkill for what you are trying to achieve to me personally. At over $1000 for all of this, I think I'll stick to my kit 12-60 f/3.5 with a 0.7x wide angle adaptor. Less weight, smaller, IBIS2... half the price.
$400 for lens and $650 for speed booster. Not interested in vlogging anymore lol. Cool video though. Been watching your videos. You clearly have the knowledge and prove it often. Keep it going man.
Hello sir, please suggest me a lens that can serve my purpose, probably weeding, landscape, portrait & astrophotography. I have Nikon D3400, can I use DX lenses in full frame DSLRs using any equipment? Does the speed booster you're using fit on Nikon D3400? Thank you Regards Abhik Chakraborty
Well, all of the sample footage here was shot wide open- you be the judge 😉

Great content! Hey hace you had the opportunity of testing the XL metabones paired with the Rokinon 14mm for FF to see which set up is wider? please share if you have 😉
This was great!! I love the effect at the start😂😂. Tutorial please? I’ve been wanting a wide angle but I ended up going with a fisheye because 400 was a little bit out of my budget. Thanks for the video!
Hey Aidin, you said before on one of your video that you’re not shooting in 4k, is it still the case? Are you using 24fps? If so, is it on avchd? On lumix we don’t have a 1080p 24fps, so I’m wondering which setting are you using.
Aidin Robbins would love to try it but I wanted to be able to use the avchd files directly on my iphone/ipad for editing and not need to convert it on pc. Hmmmm. 4k files are huge and I don’t need the higher resolution at all times. Loved your content man!
Just got the Laowa 7.5mm f2 for my Lumix G7 and I must say it's a really amazing lens for vlogging. Aidin recommended it to me and it's about $400 cheaper than this setup right here. If you're looking for a more affordable option I would go for it (even though it broke my wallet haha)

That effect at 0:02 was awesome xD was not expecting it!
So why bother with this and metabones? A Laowa 7.5mm does the trick and it's f2. 0. Cost wise at the same range.
Viltrox = Metabones killer. great video !
In general the factor is not 2 but 1.6 (Golden Ration 1.618) if you have a 11mm with something like a APSC you get a ~17.8mm
It's micro four thirds chief, the crop factor is 2. The speed booster is 0.64 making it about 1.3. Nothing in this video is APS-C

Exactly the kind of video I was looking for. Thank so much!
how about the Olympus 7 - 14 2.8 ?
How do you think 28-70 pro lens would work on mft as manual focus only? Without a speed booster. What mount is this lens?
Wow nice editing man. Keep the consistency 🤙🤙

Why did you chose to get the 0,64 and not the 0,71 magnification? Ty in advance!
Damn, son. You're like 16 years old and your TH-cam game is on point.
Why not use the native Laowa 7.5mm F2 ? Fraction of the price of this setup and especially of weight and size!
Is it weather sealed ?
