    When I saw that flare in some of the shots on Taylor’s channel, I remember thinking wow, that lens is great, I wonder what it is. Now I know! Gotta love a good vintage lens flare.

    Looks awesome. Love lenses like this. I have a Minolta Telesor 28mm f/2.8 and it has a similar character. Also use a Minolta Rokkor 50mm f/1.4 which is equal parts amazing. Using them on my Panasonic S5.

    Got this lens less than a year ago and it's my favorite lens! Love the way it looks with Fujifilm colors! The balls it makes when wide open are the best! They're like rainbow doughnuts! I also put extension tubes on it for macro photography and it's amazing for macro stuff! I'd like to get an actual macro lens, but until then this is my go to "macro" lens! Would love to get another one and have it rehoused into a cinema lens! Shit would be tight!

    I got this lens as well! Got it about 20 years ago when I came to Japan for vacation in an old film camera shop in the undergrounds of Tokyo streets.
    Really found the store by accident and I'm glad I did. Because this lens cost me less than $20!
    20 years later and now I'm living in Japan. My lens is still in mint conditions. It is the M42 mount as well, so I adapt it to E-mount, FX-mount and EF-mount. Thanks for the video and sample clips. Open gate looks amazing with this lens character!

    Vivitar did not make lens or other items, rather they rebranded other manufacture item with their name. Thus they actually had several version of the 28 mm sold in the past. Some of those manufactures are now popular manufactures. The code based on the initial sn like 22 is Kino Precision which is Kiron. Note as such some lens were better than other.

    Does using the Metabones speed booster lock down the lens so it has no movement? I want to upgrade from a GH5 with a Viltrox speed booster as the lens becomes so loose when trying to use it with a follow focus.

    • @michaelbodet3893
      @michaelbodet3893 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      There are 2 types of vivitar 28mm f2.5, the one featured in the video which is made by kino, and another one made by tokina. Do you which one is it? If it looks like the one in the video then it is a kino made lens. Another way to find out is that at the front of the lens there is a serial number, and if it starts with 22 then it is a kino and if it starts with 37 then it is tokina.

    Though I don't get most of the things you talked about, I do want to learn about cameras since I find it fascinating. And I'm the type of person that doesn't understands what someone is talking about unless I try it myself a little then can be guided further. What camera would you suggest since I am a beginner? (In cheap range since I can't afford heeheeee)

    • @ShaneAndersonProductions
      @ShaneAndersonProductions ปีที่แล้ว +1

      As someone who has shot with Nikon, Fuji, and now Sony, definitely start with Fuji X-S10 or if you need autofocus go with Sony a6600/6400. Buy the camera used and spend more money on good native lenses (meaning the lens brand matches the camera brand).
