The closer you are to the subject, the narrower your depth of field becomes. That lens might open up to T/2.8 but you'll get much better results at F/10. Your subject will be mostly in focus but your background will still have lots of Toneh.
At least I have lived long enough to see the yellow bellied sapsucker walrus spider. And we learned that the macroscopic world is full of horrors beyond description that (if we could see them with our eyes unaided) would have us quivering in fear and loathing. Thank you for that as well.
whenever I see macro footage of insects and arachnids, I am reminded of a passage from one of Lovecraft's stories "(...) But life holds many ugly things."
waiting for this one to arrive at TTArtisan south africa , the 100mm F2.8 tilt shift macro also heaps of fun, allows you to shift that plane of focus a tiny bit to get more of that pop
Love that throwback microphone. Along with the new hair, it gives a Stray Cats vibe.... Or were you going for a George Michael vibe? Love the hover bugs.... Have a great day!
Looks like a spectacular lens for Macro Photography I know most of the work that has good depth of field is stacked. The Canon 100mm f2.8 is a great lens too but this one is 2:1 and that might be something to consider for those who work with tiny subjects.
Some of these shots were nice but I thought the macro shots you took with the Panasonic G9 II with the 60mm Olympus were absolutely amazing. I think macro videography is one case where using micro 4/3 makes sense.
Most of TTArtisan lens having somewhat 3d pop from little bit to very obvious, I think they know the vintage formula related to Zeiss quite well, they just dont have the good chemical coating to prevent flare.
No, Kasey!!, (at 2:41) that's not a bee snooping around, but a typical, annoying Yellowjacket wasp, famous for bothering us when we eat outside. Bees is good people! At 15:03, one of those extremely rare Komodo flying lizard squirrels? Perhaps having escaped from the Toronto Zoo?
It would be interesting to see how well the Nikkor Z MC 105 might have auto focused under the same conditions. I actually have a Z6iii, and a Nikkor 105, and, I assume, bugs in my garden. Unfortunately I am also lazy, sitting inside, watching your video, instead of taking my camera outside.
I have too many macro lenses but laowas are my favorite. Their 15 f4 macro will go with me to my grave. That lens looks good though. Not great beyond macro. Pretty much equivalent to a Tamron 90 macro from 15 years ago... The flying sweat bee footage was magic though. That was you and not the grear.
I have the Canon 5x macro lens and the problem with it is that it magnifies so much at 5x that the subject is almost never recognizable for what it is. For that reason, I rarely use it beyond 2x
All spiders are bugs. All insects are bugs, so what can we conclude? All men are mortal. All women are mortal. All bugs are mortal. Therefore, all men are bugs too. Women are too pretty to be bugs. And if you are going to use the weak argument that I am using subsets, consider that the set of all subsets is smaller than the set of all subsets of itself.
Can you do a direct comparison using this lense vs the 600mm prime. I have found that i get better footage or photos with 600 or 800mm say 5 metres away than these macro lenses
Nope, don’t want hexagonal toneh balls, especially when there are 12 blades and they are actually dodecagons.🤓The lens looks very sharp and well constructed but none of the third party macros are auto focus so you can’t use Nikon’s auto focus shifting feature to get a macro shot with the entire subject in focus. That’s too bad since it would be great to get 2x macro shots with that feature which makes it much easier than doing it manually.
The AF on the Nikkor Z version of the 105MC is decent. Sometimes you have to help it a little b/c it doesn't like going from like 10ft back down to 1 ft, so i twist the focus ring to get it near the range. Once you get it and use 3D tracking, it locks on pretty darn good. It's not perfect by any means. Also, if a subject is moving directly towards you any faster than walking pace forget it. Argueably plenty of macro photographers use manual focus anyways, but having the AF on the nikkor version is great too. It doubles as a portrait lens. The shots of you standing far away in that walking path it will definitely track your face and keep you in focus no problem... just dont walk briskly towards the camera 😅
@4:40 For the kids watching, there are 12 vertices/sides, so it is dodecagon, not a hexagon.😅 That can only come from a lens with 12 aperture blades meant to create round tonehs wide open.
Color information accounts for resolution, i was upscaling star trek with Chris Pine, and it did an amazing job going from 24fps up to 60fps with anyfile converter on my old gtx 1080, took four hours though. New versions of upconverters sacrifice everything for speed, you want the oldest one you can find. The footage actually four times better, not butter accurate, but four times better is alot. The difference is Indiana Jones 4, like your just VIP outside the scary army camp, the guy falls off the crate stack in the warehouse. Best indiana movie just from a technical standpoint. Temple of Doom had the limitation being a Jewel of The Nile, keep it two hours bud, this olden days. Id just use my 40.5 with my 85 3.3, hate variable tube to death. You can use a diopter 1, 2, 3 = 3ft, 2ft, 1ft, so you just already know, im going to be that close to it, use a diopter 3 filter, like ten bucks.
If you wanna go even crazier, probably unusable for video but hey, you could try either the Laowa or the Astrahori 2.5-5x macro lenses (very small in size and weight)
Common man, that was terrible! 97% of it was completely out of focus. I kept thinking if it gets in focus it's going to look amazing. Nice bokehtoneh, beautiful colours. But speaking of Tony, you brought us to the nature just to not show us the nature. What a tease.
Like you, I find filming insects in macro very difficult and somewhat tedious. I found the answer in Gorilla glue heavy duty formula. ...Works well on domestic pets also! 🤪👍🇬🇧

I once received 5 btc in 2017. It was worth 22$ thou. I spent it on cheap liquor, and poor lawyers. I have no regrets.
Fun fact: Their real name is actually Toneh Tartisan.
XDDDDDDDDDDDD

Those screws are common for macro lens light rings.
The macro insect cinema is more suspenseful than street videography.
For the short period of time it was in focus. Wow wow wow excellent keep up the good work.

Anyway, that's all I've got for you today, are you donating your bitcoins?
TT Artisans的105mm f/2.8镜头真是小巧世界的魔法棒，虽然手动对焦有点挑战，但捕捉到的细节和质感绝对值得。对于喜欢微距摄影的朋友，这镜头是个不错的选择！
14:00 waiting for you to sing a smooth jazz tune. Nice lighting.
Thank you for enriching 16min of my life with nature and my future lens 😍👍👍👍
Im buzzin' on the bee footage. Ho ho ho.
These glasses fit you real good
Love that throwback microphone. Along with the new hair, it gives a Stray Cats vibe.... Or were you going for a George Michael vibe? Love the hover bugs.... Have a great day!
No joke, I've been flirting with the idea of grabbing that Voigtlander 20mm on ebay the last few days 😆
sick bee-roll brah
Thank you TTArtisans giving us L mount losers something cool.

Yea they are growing on me as a lens company.

Bees are easy. Try hummingbirds next! Spiders were great!
Nice bee roll
C100 footage looks great. Would love to know your Resolve render settings. Very natural look!
Fun review !
You can put accessories on those threaded nuts. Light and similar accessories.
I bought the Laowa 100mm f2.8 RF mount 2:1....great lens, although havenae used it as much as I'd like to... 🤷🏽♂️👌🏼
The “Enrique Iglesias look”, 😮

they make an apsc 40mm macro that actually has some beautiful pop and bokeh
12 blades make dodecagons 🎓
Nice mic and sunnies. You almost look kinda cool 😎
Those Toneh balls were nice! And in no way is that sus…
What a intro
Troll info 1, spiders are not insects 2, hexagons have six sides.
All spiders are bugs. All insects are bugs, so what can we conclude? All men are mortal. All women are mortal. All bugs are mortal. Therefore, all men are bugs too. Women are too pretty to be bugs. And if you are going to use the weak argument that I am using subsets, consider that the set of all subsets is smaller than the set of all subsets of itself.
I have and use TTArtisan 40mm macro, e mount. Adequate lens, requires tripod, and patience.
Can you do a direct comparison using this lense vs the 600mm prime. I have found that i get better footage or photos with 600 or 800mm say 5 metres away than these macro lenses
Ohhhh fuuuuuu. I just got this lens sent to me to test out. I’m screwed 😅
Dude the Nikon 105 is insane, sharpest lens I own. Get away from china
I get it for photos but macro video work looks like a real pain
hey bro let us know if u sell that on kijiji'
I didn’t know George Michael had a child.
Don't like hexagonal toneh? It's OK because this lens has dodecagonal toneh. That's allowed, eh?
B-roll

You almost can't shoot wide open with macro. Even if you're at f11, there will still be a lot of toneh.😊

Kasey then proceeds to walk to and from the camera, briskly, while muttering about the terrible autofocus...lol
Compare it to Sony 90mm Toneh 2.8 you somehow cool looking shelltuber 🌚
I was ready to donate BTC yet the painful photography clips that were added was a dealbreaker.

I have a canon ex 600 speed lite. Can I use that for macro or do I need a special modifier?
Panny s prime >>>
Mav on the macro.
With Toneh's balls in the background.

You need to gain few houdred pounds and you will be as magical as Vablahblahgraphy!
Short segments of this video will be in focus.
There is a channel called Courtney Victoria; she get some really nice shots with this lens.
Like you, I find filming insects in macro very difficult and somewhat tedious.
I found the answer in Gorilla glue heavy duty formula.
...Works well on domestic pets also! 🤪👍🇬🇧
The screws are for mounting macro lights, lol
No built in stabe, too sharp and no 3D pop to use some quotes. 😂
Day 1 of asking the Zeiss lord himself: Does zeiss touit lenses have 3d pop?
Are u saying the
Csm gear is an extension of your dog? 😹
@cameraconspiracies, do you have what Toneh takes? DO YOU?!?! th-cam.com/video/9cT0jXI7l4E/w-d-xo.html
lol try to focus-stack a video
So I just wasted 16 min of my life watching his latest upload 📸
Spellcheck changed "invested" to 'wasted" very odd.
