  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

GL Optics/Canon 70 200mm T3.1

i just started a new thread as i hadn't seen this one........http://www.reduser.net/forum/showthread.php?93518-GL-Optics-70-200mm-amp-11-16mm
But i just received my 70-200mm & 11-16mm PL lenses from Nan......
Both lenses seem really solid, some may say the 70-200mm is a bit heavy, but personally i like the feel of it.
As i mentioned i will try and get some tests done, for sharpness, contrast & vignetting, but overall im impressed.

Seems a bit to good to be true... Hope I am wrong.

They have a few interesting lenses. Anyone able to vouch for the team behind the company?

Seems so, but aint so... lens build quality is great, zoom though focus holds on mine, good people behind the scenes... etc... here's a peak @ some shots from the lens's www.vimeo.com/GLoptics
 
Agreed. Avi, are you advertising for these guys, or what? You're about to earn a vacation from the forum.
 
Evins Thread is because I just bought the lens and asked him to check it out for me because I was on the road. Avi and I spoke about his experience with his lens. Not sure what you guys are bitching about. Let it be a forum. If you like a product why not be able to shout it out. I am pairing this lens with a Red 17-50 for a 1 lens case and go experience.
I will give a shoutout or promotion as it may be to Fred Salaff at FJS. Really easy to work with and the lens came in a few weeks. Great transaction.
Thanks
dave

Lighten up Jeff.

Ive seen people spouting off about products from other companies for years. I swear some days this place becomes a ARRI / Sony / Canon / BM forum.

If RED made or even sold on a lens anywhere near this thing... I'd tend to agree. But really?
 
It would be good to see some midrange 24-70 full frame zoom from GL Optical. I heard they gave up on Canon 24-70 rehouse.
I would be personally interested in two wider Full Frame zooms for rehouse.
16-35 and 24-70. I hope Nan will look into it:-)
i heard Zeiss are working on Wide CZ Full Frame Zoom(16-35?). I hope to hear something about it at SMPTE 2013 in Sydney in July.
I had new 70-200 in my hands, it is really well made and is only 2.5kg heavy.
