    As much as I think youtube is great and does a good job of promoting quality content the sheer fact that scope isn't on 10m+ views is criminal!

    I'm not sure why anyone would actually hate zoom lenses. They're a tool, just like any other lens. All have their compromises and it's all down to preference.

    • @MediaDivision
      @MediaDivision  2 ปีที่แล้ว +16

      Because they are a compromise… not more not less. Most movies don't contain any zoom shots because… well, we just made a video about that

    • @C.I...
      @C.I... ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think the move away from their use in film-making has a lot to do with the prevalence of cameras that have rolling shutter. A rapid zoom in/out, or even a really fast pan get ruined by the jellyness/lean of rolling shutter.

    You guys do such awesome work. I decided 3 weeks ago to buy the Dzofilm Catta 70-135mm for Sony to test.
    I love it so far as it's been time for us to move outta photography lenses.
    I will be picking up the 35-80 mm and probably even the 18-35 mm towards the end of the year.
    I will eventually move into a case of Vespid primes eventually.
    The combination of the two zooms and primes will be the direction going forward unless we are running and gunning.

      interesting... havn't seen that, yet. Thank you. We already did a test of the Angie in SCOPE Chapter Three. As a spherical lens itself it can't hold a candle to the ACEs of course. The very short focus through makes it a pain to work with. I rather use my Contax zoom

      @@MediaDivision You can tell from the compression of space in the opening close up, there would be a lot more distortion if the focal length stayed the same.
      Also this is from Malcom McDowell:
      We shot in the Korova Milkbar, the opening shot of the film, and the young lad on the end Mike Tarn, was sitting there. Warren and I were friends, Warren Clarke who plays Dim, and we were kind of bored sitting there waiting for the lighting - it was endless. So we said to this Mike guy, "Is there anything that you can do that is going to get you noticed?" We're winding this guy up really being very wicked. He goes, "I don't know. I can flutter my eyelids like this." I went, "That is so cool! What do you think Warren?" "Yeah! Yeah!" Stanley's ready - OK action! Big shot here (on his face), zoom lens and a pull back on a dolly. Suddenly, "Michael!! What the hell are you doing?!" "Well, he told me to!" "Don't look at me! I didn't tell him." Ruined the shot. Goofing around - Stanley didn't like that. We teased him a lot.

      “One outstanding use of this lens system is Clockwork’s signature opening shot, which begins as a tight close-up on Alex’s sneering face and then slowly zooms out as the camera dollies back, revealing his trio of thuggish companions and the bizarre interior of their favorite haunt, the Korova Milkbar.”
      The article and another one online talk about the lens being a modified Angenieux 16mm 20:1 zoom with a 1.6x extender on it to cover 35m.

    Your dolly zoom out and back in made me wonder if it can be used for a partial transition, where the far out shot hides half a scene transition happening out of the frame which then gets seen on the wide part again.
    Also like the slight change from side to side. Combined with an orbiting track there is some lovely ideas.
    Sadly a little bit difficult to experiement with without the equipment

      @MediaDivision  ปีที่แล้ว

      Of course… that is a great idea… a guy sitting “alone” at a table and a dolly zoom revealing he is in a crowded restaurant to emphasize his disconnect… pretty smart but complex shot.
      Definitely on the harder side of things…. But, where there is a will, there is a way

    Great work. Do you consider to take a look at some legendary old cine zooms, like Cooke Varotal 20-100 or Angenieux 20-120? May I ask what kind of lights were used on set? Thank you. Jan

    • @MediaDivision

      Hey Jan... thank you so much for your support. Very much appreciated. And thank you for your kindness. Right now, we don't, simply as we don't have access to those, plus we like the idea, that people can get access to stuff we test. DZO was just nice enough to supply the gear. Lights: There are two Arri 4K HMIs (in the frame) and two Arri 4K HMIs lighting the "outside" behind the window. I am light by a massive beauty dish on a 1.5K HMI (not sure what the brand is).. looks like this instagram.com/p/CjV-oIdKvfE/
      That is a lot of Ks, would have worked with a fraction of the output, but you can't really dim HMIs

    This may be a strange request, but is there somewhere I can learn about lenses in detail. I can't focus very well with reading so another medium like video would be great. Is there any resources you know of that I can use to learn in detail about lenses?
    Your videos are great, but aren't very in depth with the explanation about how exactly lenses work, because you people focus more on the art (which is great btw, I love your videos)

    • @MediaDivision
      @MediaDivision  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thank you… if you can't read, you are out of luck. There is no videos I am aware of, that go deeper into the subject than our channel does. The Cine Lens Manual is a good and expensive book, but it doesn't go into optical engineering either. Google is your friend and there is a lot to be found if you are willing to read. Everything beyond that … well, you would have to study optical engineering I guess.
