Love that you did the sample footage and show us without any color correction or color grading! So rare since quite a number of reviews did with cinematic luts. I think "raw footage" is very important and helpful when reviewing a camera lens, we got to know more details, the actual one. Really appreciate your effort! Thank you so much! ps.fx30 user as well
I just got my sony 11m f1.8 last week after watching his reviews. How do you like your Sigma? My Tamron 70-300 is arriving today as well, I wanna see how it performs in sports photograph.
@@BARAKABLESSING I like the Sigma 18-50mm f2.8 a lot. Very lightweight for travel and works for both photos and videos. I think that Tamron looks interesting as well. I may use my SOny FX30 for some wildlife videos, as right now I am using the Sony A74 with the Sony 200-600mm, so that 1.5x crop makes this a bit more interesting, as you always seem to need more reach but it is TOO much for travel.
Fascinating to see how far Samyang has come over the past few years. Still perhaps my favourite lens I've used from their collection would be the 16mm F2 manual focusing lens. I'm still hoping for something like an 8mm non-fisheye aps-c lens for the Sony e-mount system however that hope is fading somewhat. 😥Personally I'm not going to be investing in any cine lenses as video isn't something I do but a great review nonetheless. Keep up the excellent work.
I have the 24mm giving me focal length close to 35mm and using it on my sony fx30... this lens is amazing and would recommend them to all. Will definitely be getting the 35mm to capture portrait stills in the future.
Here's a consumer camera and three third-party lenses - followed by Hollywood quality video sequence. (Nicely filmed and edited btw!) What a long way technology has come that you can buy such high quality gear now and produce stunning results.
Artur.. this video's are superb 😱 The colors on this lenses and camera are natural look like our eyes see colors, not over colored.. I like the combination 😁
Every time i m looking for some new lens reviews.. first i want to see at your channel. & WOW.. what a great review with these Cine lenses. just want to say this is AMAZING stuff. Your cinematography is at the peak of TOP level in this Cine review.. 👏👏👏
Hey Arthur! Great work with the reviews! I would love to see you explain if there are any benefits of budget video / cinema lenses such as these compared to photo lenses such as sigma 18-50 mm f2.8 for hobby / non-professional movie making in particular. That is, without any fancy cinema equipment or accessories
always doing some great reviews, to the point, honest with incredible visuals. It's exciting to see Samyang making new innovations. Sony is lucky to have them making lenses for the e mount. If only they would go the dark side and make some of this cool stuff for Fuji too, lol. Would be great if these lenses as you suggested have some add-on such as anamorphic. Looks like Blazar made the Nero with a 1.5x squeeze factor that looks very interesting.
Thx Arthur for the review. Without color grading they already look amazing. I am planning to switch from regular photo lens to cine lens. These definitely falls in my budget , but the real question is, will they render similar quality on Sony A7M3 and A7C ? Thx Pritam
Excellent review as far as it went. It would have been even better if you also reviewed the new manual focus ring accessory, which gives calibrated distances, hard stops, and allows the lens ring to be used for aperture at the same time.
Dear Arthur. Another great video. Seeing that you have reviewed some Samyangs. Could the Samyang 24mm f1.8 be a great alternative to the Sigma 23mm f1.4? The Sammy is lighter and provides full frame coverage. 24 on FF and 36 on APSC. It would be an interesting comparison. Also a comparison video between the Samyang 35mm f1.8 and the Sony FE 35 f1.8 on your Sony a7C. 🙏🙏🙏
As usual, you answered all my questions! I think that front adapter, which seems to be US$300 now, is essential. Without it, they look like they're regular old AF lenses, not cine lenses. Although the consistent and small size and weight is great. I feel like to be a "Cine Lens" it should have both a focus ring and an aperture ring, they should both have markings, and they should both be geared. The switch that lets you flip between focus ring and aperture ring is clever and innovative, but not as good as having both rings. The built in tally light is awesome!
🔴Dear Arthur, isn't the focus breathing possible to be corrected using the internal focus breathing correction, same as with the A7iv, or is that reserved to the propriatory Sony lenses only? (Cannont imagine, that Samyang did not deliver a focusbreathing compensation profile to sony ?!? 🔴
@@ArthurR Hope she gets well soon. I did try the samyang 75 cine lens, was a major disappointment in AF for some reason. Have you ever tried the Zeiss Batis lens? They are awesome and the prices have come down drastically after the release of GM lens. Some of them have a better AF than sony and and really close focusing distance and the great zeiss pop bokeh! You should definitely check them out!
These look aesthetically cool

Definitely worth a look. My Sony FX30 hits today. I have the Sony 11mm f1.8 and the Sigma 18-50mm f2.8, based on your videos.

It would have been nice if you could label the clips with the lens used to get that particular footage. Did you shoot on 60fps for slowmotion?
Amazing that one can get today a full setup for documentaries or video news with a professional production value for a couple of thousands dollars.
Artur.. this video's are superb 😱
The colors on this lenses and camera are natural look like our eyes see colors, not over colored..

Samyang on APS-C .. yay! Hope you get to check out the missing 45mm ...! Cheers.

man.....im jealous of that combo, fx30 with the 24mm. Course.....the lumix s5ii would be a great buy compared to the fx30. Too many options

Great question

Damn the focus breathing is a deal breaker for me. Guess im going with sony primes for focus breathing compensation
Do you think the 24 mm would make a good lens for astrophotography?
Nice work with the Mini movie reel. Very interesting lenses indeed!
How is 24mm V-AF compare to their 24mm f/1.8? Is it better quality?
That video montage was definitely way over the top.. and I love it haha
Were you in s-cinetone?
such a cool concept. Need to do a lot more research to see if this is a good option.

Wow! You said there was no color grading? What are your settings? Lol. Look fantastic.
Trying to decide between these or the manual 7artisans cine lens’
images are beautiful!!
As far as your experience level, do you still prefer a MF vs AF?

these lenses series work both apse and full frame with sony 6700 and sony a7s 2?
The videos I’ve been looking for 🔥🔥🔥 MAHALO

Focus breathing compensation is only available with certain supported Sony lenses.
Gimbal was used for the video?
Can I make best quality feature film for theater of this camera and lens ?
Anybody had a chance to check if these Samyang V-AF lenses still work fine after firmware upgrade of the FX30 camera to the ver. 3.0?
Are these focus by wire?
@ArthurR does these lenses work on APSC Cams? Like ZV-E10
Definitely want these lenses. Now do I keep my a7iii or sell it and grab the fx30…
Did you sell?
@@mysticandroid57 nah I still have my a7iii
I can get behind this kind of lens design going forward. Looks industrial sexy.
oops! what happened to Jenessa's leg? In your previous video i thought that leg cast was a part of that short film!
Fractured a bone, shes getting better though, maybe one more week with the boot.

sir Can we get the sample videos???
how did you stabilize these set ups? was it a gimbal or did you run them through catalyst browse?
Gimbal only, EIS was off.
How much were you paid for this?
Why does the lens front part have a mount and electrical connection?
Watch the video until the end.
OMG!!!
For an untrained eyes on lens gears like me it looks incredible but im not a professional so not sure 😅 6:35
I have a plan...
Spoiled or cursed, I underestimated how difficult it would be to pick lenses as a rookie.
Should have picked a Canon instead of a FX30😂
Surprised you didn't try it on a full frame and give a sample.
Wow
Your wife is so beautiful ❤
I did not like the picture, it draws very cruelly
First
What the hell ? I need lense flares creamy bokeh . Or i can use normal lenses . Wtf they think is cine lenses ?
