Your portraits have some vintage feeling not only due to your model styling but because she is a bit tensed knowing she has to stand still for some (long) seconds, like back in the old days 😉
I wonder if its possible to make it handheld with a stepper motor and a grip like the photosniper. With a counterweight fluid rotation should be possible. I really need to get my lathe working again 😅
They have, sliding lens adapters have been around for at least 15 years. Those are a bit bigger though, the camera is mounted on a plate behind a lens (i think the ones i saw were large format) and you would slide the camera horizontally and vertically for 6 or so frames in total.
Heh heeeh. I was just thinking about same thing & about Edison and electrical lamp... But then figured out not everyone is smart enough to find a Nikola Tesla that work for him, for almost no fee!!! and not sue him for slavery!!!!!!
It’s just so much more cumbersome than just shooting medium format film. Shot, develop, scan done. The multi image thing just Takes the magic from the moment for me at least
Not that I'll be able to afford the adaptor, a lens or a FF camera but this video made me smile with excitement and the last time that happened is when I discovered I could adapt old lenses to modern bodies, years ago. Thanks for the video!
This adapter looks interesting, but as you said is absolutely the same shooting and stitching the photos without adapters or vintage lenses (but the bokeh is amazing in your lens). I did a couple of trials stitching the photos manually, counting a 0.57 crop factor for the medium format (so a 70mm on ff becomes a sort of 40mm, but with the same depth as 70mm as the Medium Format does). The tricky part is always to match geometries and moving objects, but for a controlled environment is a beautiful technique!
Amazing idea! I normally do the trick with my Mamiya 645 lenses and Nikon Z7 and Fotodiox tilt/shift adapter, it also has rotation function by 30°step, you just shift it max to the side and rotate, but this one promising to be a bit faster with 90°step. Especially if you have inpatient model, like kids. The only disappointment for me, absence of Mamiya 645 version:( Mathieu you are opening many of secrets and ideas for people out there)) thanks I really appreciate it. More artistic photographers in this world than better ;) P.S. If you ever use Fotodiox tilt/shift adapter for panoramic stitching of shifted images, try to do it with some tilt, results sometimes are surprising;)
Couldn't you do this same thing also with the Mirex T/S Adapter, to EF mount for medium format lenses, add a Viltrox Speed Booster and mount the lot to an APSC mirrorless camera?
Sounds great! The only shortcoming I can think of, apart from the digital nature of the picture, is the fact you can't compose the entirety of the picture before shooting since the viewfinder remains a 35mm one
That is really cool that the lens keeps its position while camera's moving! I guess manually moving the whole camera and lens combo is thus better only with the lenses with focus plane that is not too flat.
Cool adapter and incredible results Mathieu. Also special shout out to your mega stable model! haha. Buuuut you can get a Yashica 124G for around €300 without too much effort, and there are other medium format cameras under that price point too.
Interesting idea. So principally it uses the good old stitching technique. Except the lens adapter helps you with some automations. I think this setup won't do well for long exposure photography. So as long as what you are shooting doesn't involve movements, no problem then. :D
Coming from the future. Was always intrigued by this. Recently bought a secondhand GFX50s and nowadays they have a version from GFX as well. So i just ordered one to use with my Pentax 67 lenses!
Finally they made the adapter for Mamiya 645 lenses;) I had ordered one and it's already arrived! Love the 6x6 image from the adapter and Mamiya 645 lenses especially 80mm f1.9 N. And much easier to stitch than from tilt/shift adapter. The only problem is to negotiate with the model to freeze like in old times;) especially with my 6 years old daughter;) In any case the best and cheapest way to medium format world.
@@Snikkelbek Yes I am still using it, but not often these days 🙂👍😉👌 For the medium format look, for the job with customers, I'm now using Nikkor 200mm f2.0g through kipon ng-nz 0.7x adapter/booster to nikon Z system... It gives me 1:1 aspect ratio pictures, on Full Frame without too much vignette and looks like medium format 6x6... For most of other cases Nikkor Z 50mm f1.2s and Nikkor Z 85mm f1.2s are covering all my portrait work needs... This adapter I'm using only, as a hobby, for the relaxed slow pace shooting... It is still the best with Mamiya 645 80mm f1.9 N, for 3D rendering, pop, especially at close distances to the subject... Also, it is nice rendering with Mamiya 645 45mm f2.8 for landscapes... The only set up I tried so far which can be a better option, is Mitakon 65mm f1.4 on the GFX... But it is expensive, and I have to keep two different camera systems Nikon Z and Fuji GFX, which I want to avoid...
@@antontaranenko8824thanks for your quick reply, i will think about it. It’s hard to find in Europe, so i will have to pay customs if i order from the official website.
What about the kipon focal reducer? Medium format to fullframe? Expensive, but you only need one shot plus you get extra light ( btw got my etrs full kit with handle for 200 euro, and psix or kiev can be had for sub 100 if you get lucky)
Thanks Mathieu, another very interesting and very clear video. Isn’t the retouching process too much of a burden when you have to fix moving objects, like the lighthouse photo for example ? I bet even with no wind, the sea surface was moving in between each frame. Being interested by the Brenizer method and medium format, will you recommend this accessories ?
Good idea! We should be able to 3D print an adapter like this. I would be curious to hear your thoughts on the Kipon Baveyes speedbooster from medium format to full frame
Kipon gives you a 4:3 image, not a 1:1 image also, it adds glass between the sensor and the lens, with the vertex you got exactly what the medium format lens projects on your sensor without extra glass and deformations.
The kipon gives you a 3:2 image with a field of view wider and slightly taller than 645 digital. Giving you the option to 4:3 crop and still have a field of view a hair bigger than 645 digital. The added glass does not affect quality in a noticeable way unless you start using filters too. I've done lots of side by side comparisons and saw no difference. However, you can shoot video, handheld, and moving subjects with the kipon.
If this is much cheaper and covers a wider medium format image than a speed booster, then I'm all in. Edit: Want to point out that I do understand the resolution and image quality advantage over a speed booster with an additional glass element.
Might be an interesting way to mirrorless scan negs too. Fotodiox made a shift board to put a mirrorless/DSLR to a 4x5. I'd kill for one. Cool video, dude.
Depends on how much you value the effective boost in resolution and are willing to sacrifice ergonomics for it. Also this thing is like 1/3 of the price which is also relevant.
Actually, you might only need to sell a couple of drawings or photo's. A few years ago, I bought a medium format TLR on a flea market for just 25€. Of course, this really wouldn't be my first pick if I wanted to seriously go into medium format film, that would go to something like a kiev 88 since it's cheap-ish (arround 200€ on ebay) but offers many of the advantages of SLR's.
Interesting idea but how is this 6x6? The actual captured image area is smaller right? Something like 4.5cm x 4.5cm? Not a big problem but not exactly 6x6.... Or am I missing something? If this is correct, then all lenses have a slightly longer "effective" focal length right?...
@@MathieuStern If you lay out 4 x 35mm frames in Photoshop, you can see that it is not a 6cm x 6cm final capture.. I have done it roughly, looking at the way they do it in the video and I would say it is roughly 4.5cm x 4.5 cm.. Still, great photos Mathieu! If the camera itself is moving, any way of adding tilt/swing to a lens and stitching? That would be a cool look :)
Interesting idea! Thanks for the demo. Another option might be to use something like the Kipon tilt-shift adapter. It gives you a smaller image and one that's not exactly square, but it adds the possibility of tilting the lens.
Bear in mind, any stitching in camera or on a computer will: 1. Take time for processing and editing 2. Most likely have a slight movement from subject that cannot be overlapped despite shooting at the fastest shutter speed (see tony's video regarding pixel shift by olympus) You might not think its important but when you have to handle multiple files, and end up having bad overlapping from stitching, you're better off spending your time scanning film instead. Plus its not worth investing a whole system from start unless you already have the body and lens. Better off just jump to digital medium format (pentax 645d, 645z, phase one p, hasselblad h, fujifilm gfx)
Your right ... in general you get better results in life When you spend 5k on a machine than 600€ ... but this is an option for people who don’t have the 5k like me ! some people would love to experiment digital medium format even if they don’t have a lot of money
Thank You for this video. Really love the idea. Would also love to have an universal Rhino filter where I can just swap out different lens mount since they don't come that cheep as well. P.s. Could You do a side by side with medium format film
Ah Mathieu had to bring his innovative thinking!!! Bravo on the portrait idea. I can’t wait for mine I live in shanghai and fotodiox refuses to sell in China even to old customers who already own many of their products. Also they haven’t created it in the M645 mount Which is the shortest flange medium format that can also adapt in the front to hassy etc. I understand they want to sell more. Good innovation even not customer friendly!!!
You can find analog MF cameras for 5€ (box camera) or 50€ like a Nettar, Retina, etc. Whatever you mean is TLRs and SLRs for 120 film. MF is 6x5,6x6, 6x7, 6x9, 6x12... It's not much of a "revolution" digital backs to large format cameras have been a thing for a while. Even using scanners, not snapshot Sensors. In fact you can get stiching backs for large format cameras that use common FF cameras. I 3D printed a sliding adapter to fit the plate holder of my LF camera and I can stich a 21x8 grid of MFT exposures for a almost LF image. That's how I got a burn make on my sensor filter tho.
Great video! I have to nitpick a bit though. Film medium format cameras can easily cost under 800 euros. If I search on eBay for a Bronica ÊTRE, the first result is 540 USD including a lens. There is no shopping around, literally the first result. That’s still an interesting gadget though.
Honestly I think that's F*cking Awesome. Yes it has it limitations but, its really a fun and creative way to use more classic retro large format glass in digital photograph without the hassles and expense of wet film processing and costly old large format cameras (btw I am NOT knocking on Film photographers it just most of us do not have the $$$$ or time to shoot film yet alone large format ) . Also I would image there could also be some mind bending results in studio with more creative control over lighting for portrait , product , real estate and museum cataloging photograph . Wow really think about it, museum's all sizes could at fraction of the cost use this process to create high quality catalogs of their collections for preservation purposes and to create fundraising books /online resources . While still creature fantastic high quality large format digital images at considerable less cost. Thank you Mathieu again for a excellent and exciting video A+ grade as a U.S. folks say.
I only see one major flaw: That you cant shoot a redundant center shot (with shift?) like you do with the Brenizer method. That way, a (slightly) moving model in the center would absolutely no problem.

Your portraits have some vintage feeling not only due to your model styling but because she is a bit tensed knowing she has to stand still for some (long) seconds, like back in the old days 😉
maybe B and W to complete the look a'la Ripley. Robert Elswit
Love the fotodiox guys' approach and how transparent they are in terms of the product's shortcomings.
This is such a clever idea - can't believe nobody thought of this until now :) Those last few photos are truly amazing.
I wonder if its possible to make it handheld with a stepper motor and a grip like the photosniper.
With a counterweight fluid rotation should be possible.
I really need to get my lathe working again 😅
People have done "Bokehranas" befor. It works perfectly fine too but doesnt requires a MF-lense

Sounds great! The only shortcoming I can think of, apart from the digital nature of the picture, is the fact you can't compose the entirety of the picture before shooting since the viewfinder remains a 35mm one
I could compose, you just need to know there the center of the image will be and imagine the rest

Like the Bronica ETR that lens natively mounts to can be had for pretty cheap. You could get a decent kit for like $400 USD.
@@Hasselbaddie indeed. I got mine for 350 Canadian. Just thought I’d use the exact camera he showed on screen 😉

Is there something like a speedbooster for medium format to full frame? There are some to use FF glass on APSC...
watched the whole video how to get your model so static between shots/stitches?
you ask her to stop moving or she will not get a cookie

Good idea! We should be able to 3D print an adapter like this. I would be curious to hear your thoughts on the Kipon Baveyes speedbooster from medium format to full frame
Which lens did you use to film the behind the scenes of the portrait? Is it the Van Gogh lens? It looks very cool.
How about that speedboster for medium format to 35mm (0.7x)?
That adapter is the reason I don't buy canon lenses anymore! Kipon

What’s the easiest way to “stitch” the images together on Mac? I don’t have photoshop and I don’t want to spend money on a program.
If you use a pc Microsoft has a web based stitching program that’s free.
Try GIMP, its free and open source

Sony A7RIV does this with pixel shift technology, 4 times size of the original resolution.
